The Vienna Wireless Society (Virginia) is planning our 8th amateur radio balloon flight on May 1st. Info on previous flights can be found at http://www.viennawireless.org/balloon/index.php. WWS-8 is probably a 1200 gram balloon with 2m and 70cm APRS carried by a single 2-3 pound payload.
Also:
if anyone is up and around at ~630 AM MDT (1230UTC) this Saturday (April 10th)... We are going to be launching EOSS' 150th high altitude balloon flight, and are going to be attempting to stream the launch and recovery live on the internet.
