The Melbourne HAB team led by Andy, VK3YT, launched a balloon from Deniliquin in southern NSW on 08/02/2014.
It was my pleasure, and frustration to some extent, to receive some SSDV traffic from the balloon.
Above, the last pic before it burst at 37,000m (121,000′), what a great flight.
Copy was difficult, first 70cm SSDV data received at VK2OMD at a distance of 480km and due to frequency variation of about 50Hz superimposed on slower drift, packet decode rates were low.

Well done guys!
