APRS Coverage Plots (Courtsey of Lynn W. Deffenbaugh - KJ4ERJ)

Note that these plots were generated from APRS-IS data. This means that only the first station to gate to the Internet is included. A single packet at extreme range probably means that many more packets were heard that far out, it's just that the ones that show were heard first at that range.

Also, if you look at the D plots (extreme zoom showing primarily the originating position), any point with more than 1 red line leading from it was gated multiple times probably with a significant delay between the first and second (and sometimes third) gating.






Flight Path

The trace with the balloon at the end of it is the actual flight path. All others were calculated based on NOAA computer predicted wind patterns.
