Please adjust these so they continue on from the last available ID (at the moment 635)

darksidelemm commented 1 month ago

Also... why so many IDs allocated? What are your plans here? Please don't allocate yourself a bunch of IDs that you're never going to use.

Update - now ID 636 is the next available ID

zero-one01 commented 1 month ago

given that there some higher IDs already assigned at the bottom of the list I assumed that I can choose some available numbers.

currently there are 3-4 radio sondes at my student association for flying high altitude balloons (next launch is planned for the 16.-18.) and I got additional 3 at home for testing.

what would be an appropriate number of IDs ? usually we fly a balloon with 2 sondes in case one gives up during the flight

darksidelemm commented 1 month ago

Assign enough IDs that you have enough IDs for the maximum number of balloons you might have in the air simultaneously. For testing you don't need to be using a custom assigned ID - that's what the 4FSKTEST-V2 ID is for.

thanks for clarification. I've fixed the numbers and reduced the IDs to 4
