I can swing by in a couple hours, Christie, and run the package tracker over to 2169. Unfortunately, I think I'm going to need to beg off the launch though- Got notice from my job, and I really need to put some code down this weekend if I'm going to be in a position to do anything after this month.<br>
<br>I'll come help see you guys off, and run Christie's package tracker. I can also get a winds aloft forecast for you if you like. I have to admit that I never got an email back from the airport owner, and I forgot to send a follow up, I'm sorry, but we don't have permission to use that field today. Purely mea culpa.<br>

Yes, please do change the call sign. It's not really legal to be broadcasting mine when I'm not really involved. Thanks for taking care of that.<div><br></div><div>The 5V supply should do fine so long as it can handle a big current draw. The watch batteries I tried to use last time were not able to do it and their voltage dipped too much to run it. It actually regulates down to about 3.3V, but it can handle up to 7v. It uses a pretty standard (board) power connector, so if you have something from somewhere else. I think somewhere there's the connector that was on the 4 AAs that we ran last time, although I can't exactly say where.</div>
<div><br></div><div>So the last question is... would someone be able to make it by sometime tonight or tomorrow before the launch to pick this up? I'm on 5th st. between Folsom and Harrison, in SOMA. I can go over it's operation so it'll get working properly. (Although basically, all you have to do is plug it in and it'll record its little heart out.)</div>

<br>I built a little 5v power supply for Yuri's night, so as long as the package tracker doesn't have a weird connector we could hook it up and pack it in somewhere.<br><br>B.<div><div></div><div><br><br>

<br>OK, so it looks like I'm not going to be able to take part in the launch tomorrow. I messed up my back at Robogames and haven't apparently been doing everything I need to be doing to recover, so walking much is a bit of a challenge and standing for any length of time at all is right out. So I wanted to address anything that's still out there.<div>
<br></div><div>First off, is anyone expecting me to be hauling anything? I haven't heard anything from anyone, but I don't want to assume. Lately, I've taken it that people are not expecting me to, so that should work out. If I'm leaving anyone in a lurch, I'm happy to let people use my van, as I'm not going anywhere.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Second, I realized I still have the package tracker with me. Is there space and batteries for it to fly or did that get dropped off the end of the buffer again? Should I get it to someone tonight? Would anyone who happens to be going out there be able to swing by and pick it up? I'm not really keen on doing any moving about if there's a way to avoid it.</div>
