I think I have all the parts tracked down now. I am trying to find a cheaper source for the GPS modules. DigiKey has them, but they are $21 USD apiece plus shipping. Does anybody have any cheaper

Re: HABalloon Project
I prefer the upper edge of wspr bandpass, I have my trackes set at 14097185, the thought is that its less traffic toward the edges (upper/lower) of the bandpass and our low power signals have a better

Re: HABalloon Project
If you set it at 14.097.100 it will be in the midle of the 20m wspr bandpass, then tune your radio to 14.095.600 and listen, this is under the the asumpition you tcxo is genereting a perfect 27Mhz

Re: HABalloon Project
Should work but not tested. You should change the fuse bits and the board definition.

Stick with the project

protocol you get it to atmega328p excellent.
and the HW is bullet proff for temperature environments ::)

Hi,
thanks for suggestion I try to put it at the end of timing
if ((minute() == 2) && (second() <= 30)) // Tx on minute 2 and

Re: HABalloon Project
Try adding another?setGPStime(); call within the TXtiming() function.
Let me know if this cures the issue.
