To study the effects of secondary particles on the measurement of the primary directional intensity at high altitudes, a preliminary study has been carried out. Geiger counter telescopes at selected zenith angles from 0° to 90°, utilizing Pb filters up to 17 cm, have been sent up to 100,000 feet using constant-level Pliofilm balloons. Counting rates, temperature, pressure, and azimuthal orientation were radioed to the ground by means of a 15-channel f-m telemetering system. This paper describes in detail the electronic and mechanical features of the apparatus. A description of the data and their interpretation are given in the following paper.
