A shot of me during Field Day '99. It was pretty darn hot!

Spartan Packet Radio Experiment


This is what I (along with others) was working on for a couple of years. SPRE was launched on January 11, 1996 and operated successfully for 17 hours sending telemetry for 3 experiments onboard the NASA Spartan spacecraft. The SPRE team worked with Bob Bruninga WB4APR and distributed an early version of APRS to schools.
