* Repurpose TX/Shift to 70 CM
* Understand the complete LMS6 data format (location, speed, altitude are currently known)
=Relative Humidity Circuit=
There is not feedback in the Bistable Multivibrator circuit centered around U16. This doesn't make any sense and needs revised. --[[User:N0RC|N0RC]] ([[User talk:N0RC|talk]]) 16:52, 25 September 2020 (UTC)
=Reassembly=
The article currently says use duct tape to connect the two sides of the Radiosonde for another balloon flight. At cold temperatures duct tape will harden reducing its ability to adhere. The website [http://thistothat.com thistothat.com] recommends a few options for adhesives.
* [https://www.thistothat.com/glue/weldbond.shtml Weldbond]
** The least toxic
** 1 to 4 hours to adhere
* [https://www.thistothat.com/glue/lepages_press_green.shtml LePage's Press-Tite Green Contact Cement]
** More toxic than Weldbond
** 40 min to 12 hours to adhere
** Easy to cut through
** Seems to be available in Canada but I have not found a US supply.
* [https://www.thistothat.com/glue/3m77.shtml 3M 77]
** Most toxic option
** 2-5 min to adhere
** Available in the US
I think we may want to mention the potential issue with duct tape and offer an alternative adhesive.

== Alternative reassembly closures ==
I think glues and cements will prove to be equally unfriendly to continued reuse of the payload. Perhaps use two to three extra-long zip ties around the payload, or twine?
