Pop lugs, not drugs
A club member posted the new Apogee newsletter, and the only thing that really caught my attention over lunch was their new Simple GPS unit. It's got a 4x AA self contained receiver with readout, a transmitter that looks like it runs on a 9v, says "2 mile range", and operates on non-HAM bands. (fits 29mm)
If I hadn't already picked up the T3 from Missileworks, I probably would have considered dropping a couple month's rocket budget on this gadget. I like how multiple transmitters can be paired to the T3 base for pre-installing them in rockets, and I have the hang of rocket locator, so I'm unlikely to switch.

Looking forward to hearing if folks try this out
