EOSS Preflight Net @ 7 PM Mountain Time preceding night:
• 449.225 MHz (-5 MHz Offset, 141.3 Hz CTCSS) Rocky Mountain Ham Radio (RMHAM) Repeater and EchoLink *CANONCTY* conference and the Fun Machine linked system
• 146.940 MHz (-600 KHz Offset, 103.5 Hz CTCSS) Rocky Mountain Radio League (RMRL) Repeater if the RMHAM machine is down
• 146.640 MHz (-600 KHz Offset, 100.0 Hz CTCSS) Denver Radio League (DRL) Repeater will serve as a backup to the backup repeater
Launch Site:
• 446.050 MHz Simplex
(Note that some radios assume these are repeater frequencies and attempt to put a 5 MHz offset in the transmit frequency automatically)
Track & Recovery Operations:
Repeaters:
• 449.450 MHz (-5 MHz Offset, 103.5 Hz Tone) RMRL repeater (Assuming we are flying out of Windsor).
• 448.450 MHz (-5 MHz Offset, 100.0 Hz Tone) PPFMA repeater (Assuming we are flying out of Deer Trail).
Simplex Frequencies:
• 446.100 MHz Balloon #1 Field Simplex
• 446.150 MHz Balloon #2 Field Simplex
• 446.200 MHz Balloon #3 Field Simplex
• 446.275 MHz Car to Car drive out Simplex
(Note that some radios assume these are repeater frequencies and attempt to put a 5 MHz offset in the transmit frequency automatically)
Legacy 2M Simplex Frequency (not generally used due to desense/interference issues with the 2M APRS packets)
• 146.550 MHz Simplex
