The Villanova University ARC W3YP ground station is receiving telemetry 📡 from the KB3ZOX reflashed RS-41 radiosonde high altitude balloon 🎈 as it flies up the east coast.

A little email frequency coordination was needed to make sure everyone on 431.05 MHz!

The Annual 13 Colonies Special Event

The Ham Radio Field Day event is underway!

The students of the Villanova University Amateur Radio Club are operating W3YP remotely over the internet.

So far, we have made some local 2m FM contacts and some satellite contacts 🛰️(FO-29). The upcoming RS-44 pass should be promising.

Overnight we may do some digital FT8 contacts on 20m band.

Wish us luck! 😁
