Default Balloon Launch This Afternoon

From the reflectors:

"The University of Tennessee ARC is planning a balloon
launch on Saturday afternoon at about 1:30 PM, and they could use
YOUR help. They're going for the distance record with this launch,
and the balloon will include a CW beacon on HF, which will be
relaying telemetry and location information. Feedback from monitoring
stations will provide them with the data they need to achieve their
record. The beacon will be on 14.325 MHz (+ or - 2kHz)and will be
transmitting AA4UT/B every 15 seconds, with the full telemetry data
given every 4 minutes (stuff like altitude, latitude and longitude,
temperature, battery voltage, etc.)"

"If you copy their signals, please QSL to www.utarc.org They'd really
appreciate it."

(I presume the time is 1:30 PM EST)
