AFGL Balloon Telemetry Facility.

Abstract

This paper describes the recently modernized permanent and mobile facilities for recovering and processing PCM and FM telemetry data from balloon-borne scientific experiments and engineering tests at Air Force Geophysics Laboratory, Detachment 1, Holloman Air Force Base, New Mexico. Mobile units are run either as stand-alone ground stations for launches from remote launch sites, or with telephone communications link to extend the operable range from the permanent ground station on Holloman AFB.
