What is HAB you ask? High Altitude Ballooning! IE: Weather Ballooning!!!
I overheard a fellow HAM operator talking about a weather balloon...And it brought back some old childhood wishes/feelings/desires/dreams...I was kind of sad there for a good minute; realizing that I have not achieved any of those dreams... It really sucked... So I started doing some research. I never knew the things that could be done with HAM radio and HAB... It really excited me! I never knew that my becoming an amateur radio operator could open up such a HUGE window for me and the dreams I was never able to accomplish...
