[MOham] Fw: [Balloon_Sked] America's Challenge underway

[Ray Brown]

  As of this moment, if you click on the last link below(aprs.fi), you will see that two
balloons are still in far SE New Mexico, while 3 are approaching Amarillo and one
is past Amarillo, all heading 060 at about 30-ish MPH. So best guess of the track 
of them will be over western Oklahoma, south- to eastern Kansas, and western
Missouri drifting towards Chicago from Albuquerque.

  Have fun listening!

Or you can track them on a site that actually shows all of the
balloons on screen, and the tracks they followed, along with how the
packets were first heard by the APRS-IS when you hover over the
reported positions.
