[NLRS] Fwd: [tlan] Balloon launch today @ 10:00 am

[Doug Reed]

The notice is short, but some of you might still find it interesting. 
Unless you have a TNC or APRS display, you will probably not know which 
signal on 144.390 is the balloon. Watch it on aprs.fi and see where it 
goes.

Passed on from Noel Petit at Augsburg College. Sounds interesting. See 
if you can "hear" it.
I'd think it'd also show up on http://aprs.fi as well...

Augsburg is launching a balloon at North Branch today about 10 AM. Call 
will be WB0VGI-11 with 300 mw on .39. Pass the word around to listen for 
it. It will be Augsburg's first launch using our own hardware. I will be 
listening on the 145.33 repeater when not monitoring .39 aprs.

I removed Noel's quip about disaster, don't want any bad karma ;-)
