Just a quick question, did you need an amateur radio license to transmit the APRS signal?

I don't know. We had three highly expert licensed radio operators involved so the question never came up. I would suggest that if anyone ever does this, that they approach licensed radio operators via a club and ask for expert assistance. If you lose track of the balloon, it causes all sorts of problems for air services Australia and in turn make things more difficult for those who come after you.
and thanks for the comments!
cheers
