Tracking of these flights was maintained by use of an SCR 658 radio
receiver with a 400mc transmitter telemetering information from
the balloon syst~m. Information received through the telemetering
circuit can be recorded on a standard weathel" station recorder,
a recording oscilloscope of the Brush Development type or by any
other convenient means.
Altitude of the service flights was determined by use of a modified
radiosonde modulator, an olland cyql~ modul~tor (see p.68 , Section
I, General, Technical Report 93.02(1J), or by computation from
knowled ~e of t~ weight of the balloon system and volume. of · the
balloon.
In order to keep balloon systems from floating in the air lanes,
a flight termin ·~. tion switch was incbH:led in the circuit. This
switch is a radiosonde modul~tor modified so that all contacts
above 25,000 ft. are disconn~cted from the circuit. The pen arm
rides on a shelf dnring ascent to about 30,000 ft. and t.hqn f .uls
to the commutator (See Fig. 12).
