Bob;
What would be the legality (maritime and otherwise) of a floating solar
powered APRS equipped raft? I am thinking along the lines of a Styrofoam
NERF-ball type approach that would pose little danger to ships but could
be big enough for solar panels, APRS, GPS, weather station, camera and
other experiments . Something that could serve as a relay as well as a
data collection experiment. For comms, maybe APRS plus some high speed
satellite data uplink, commercial or amateur. Think of it as an ocean
going satellite!
