Last updated 11/23/97

This program is written for the TI-82 calculator by Tony Wayne. This program calculates the altitude of a model rocket's flight. It uses 2 tracking stations along a single baseline.

The software is free and may be distributed freely as long as my name remains in it. If you use the software, please e-mail me by clicking here. If people like it and use it, I'll make the effort to post some more of my software.
