Many clubs are having Christmas dinners now.  Want to encourage your
support

for
hosting the SM and Jim Richardson-N5OHL Section Affiliated Club Coordinator
at
their dinner on Thursday, December 4.  Great Amateur Radio activitites are
happening in Ardmore!

Below is a description of the Balloon launch schedule for this Saturday as
well as the Skywarn Recognition Day activities. 73, John-WB5SYT

Balloon Launch Time & Skywarn Appreciation Day!

On this Saturday, December 6 two balloons are set to set launched at 9:00
am
CST from Norman and Tulsa. �The Tulsa balloon is KC5TRB-4 and the Norman
balloon is AD5GT-11.� The balloons are being operated by Harry-Oklahoma
Research
Balloons and John-Deployed Amateur Radio Technology, respectively.

Also this Saturday is 2003 Skywarn Recognition Day at the National Weather
Offices throughout the nation including Tulsa & Norman <A

www.crh.noaa.gov/hamradio/</A>
All day Amateur Radio activity is planned at the Tulsa National Weather
Service office. Also, � a 12 noon HF net and demonstration will be held at
the
Tulsa American Red Cross. � The Tulsa Red Cross office and the Tulsa NWS
are
located at 11th & 169.

Expectations are that balloons will reach heights of 45,000 feet, or more.
�
Payload will be less than 4 pounds. Each balloon will be equipped with APRS
for tracking. � The goal is for the balloons to complete an
Earth-Balloon-Balloon-Earth communication contact via Amateur Radio. Both
launch sites are at the
National Weather Service sites...seems natural doesn't it.
�
Track them on the web...�
