[W8MWA] APRS Help - WVU Balloon Launch Info

[Randy Crowe]

We are still looking for hams who would like to help with the launch,
tracking, and recovery of the WVU Engineering high altitude Balloon launch
in April.  The date is April 9, 2016.  We will be launching from Jacksons
Mill around 8:30 or so.  We need people to hopefully place themselves in the
projected path of the balloon so we don¹t loose contact with it when it goes
over the mountains.  We usually end up somewhere due east of Jackson¹s Mill
near the Virginia line but with the weather and winds the way they are we
could be anywhere.

It¹s a fun day out and you are almost guaranteed to see parts of the country
never seen before.  If you have portable tracker setups bring them along.
We can use everyone interested experienced or not.

Please let me know if you can help.  The more the merrier.

Further information as to projected path and such as time gets nearer.
