Every time I think about URRF I smile.
I finally got my mile high.
I never would have gone for it if I didn't have a tracker in the nose cone.
I've had the Big Red Bee since the spring.
I played around with it a bit, to try to get a feel for it.
I didn't get it that well,,,,,,,Till URRF.
Every time I'd listen for the transmitter, I was too close.......
The signal was too strong.......
Particularly if the rocket was in the air.......
But when the rocket landed at URRF after the 6500 ft flight, and was on the ground,,,, along way off.......
The signal faded,,,, as you swing the yagi antenna back and forth the sound of the morse beeps
would fade in and out,,,,,, it brought me right too it.......
I was never so impressed..........
Customer service from Greg at Big Red Bee is the absolute tops..........
I'm very glad this is the method I chose for tracking.......
My transmitter goes in the nosecone, so it's easily transferable, from rocket to rocket........
Thanks again Greg,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Teddy
