Hi,
I am new to the forum and very new to all this radio stuff. But keen to learn.
I belong to a model rocket club and we regularly launch rockets up to 10,000 feet (3km)....and sometimes higher.
Most of our rockets have GPS trackers on board, but I thought it would be fun to experiment with radio trackers.
So I have been reading about homemade pet trackers which would probably work well in rockets because they are small and light. This is a good example of what I am trying to explain:
https://www.nutsvolts.com/magazine/artic...et-tracker
So I am interested to learn if this kind of tracker is feasible in Australia (I live in NSW) and what license I would require. I spent a few hours on the ACMA website and I am now more confused than when I started.
Any advice would be great.
Thanks.
