High-Altitude Balloon Project 2m/70cm - Saturday

As part of a high-altitude balloon project being run by several local
individuals (some of whom are ham-radio operators), a cross-band 2m/70cm
repeater will be flown on a small aircraft this Saturday. We would like
as many people as possible to check in to a net we will be running through
this repeater while it is airborne. The procedure will be similar to
working stations cross-band on satellite. If you've never worked
satellites before, this might be a good opportunity for you to learn
something about how it is done - DON'T BE SHY!

The UPLINK (your TX) frequency is: 446.450 MHz
The DOWNLINK (your RX) frequency is: 146.450 MHz

Date: Saturday, March 8, 2008 (weather permitting)
Time: 10:30 a.m. - 5 p.m. (or thereabouts)
