Mark, I used an Edmund 8' balloon supported vertical in the ARRL 160M test a few weeks ago. I inflated it to about 4', where I found it had plenty of lift to hoist up my 129' piece of braided copper

Scotty et al... As an example of the difference between mylar and ordinary balloons: One of my favorite tricks with ordinary, small, mylar balloons is to make a sort of blimp with one. That is: you c

YOU CAN GET BETTER (BIGGER BUT MORE EXPENSIVE BALOONS) FROM BANNER BALOON IN THE SEATTLE AREA FONE: 206-322-6448 ASK FOR SHEREE......THEY ARE BIGGER AND MADE OF A NON CONDUM MATL....THEY DON'T LEAK!!

On 24-DEC-1996 13:00:48.7 ai7b said to GOOSTER Due to the very EXPLOSIVE nature of Hydrogen, never use it to fill a balloon that will be used to hold up a wire antenna! The smallest static charge or

Anyone out there have information on the lifting power of Hydrogen. vs Helium,? Anyone out there using it? I see no problem with the antenna coming down, other than the labor of putting it back up ag

Bill, Hydrogen has approximately twice the lifting power of He. Hydrogen has an atomic weight of approximately 1, while He has an atomic weight of about 4. However, hydrogen forms diatomic bonds to b

I don't have the lifting data at hand, but Hydrogen will provide more lift. I'll leave the quantification to the physics-enabled. Perhaps more interesting, the Helium tends to leak out of the balloon

Sorry I do not agree with some of the above statements. "Lifting power" is not proportional to the molecular weight of the gas in the balloon but to the difference between the "molecular weight" of

Jos=E9 and the list, I stand corrected. (That's what happens when you spout off with the keyboard before engaging the gray matter :-) The lift that you get with a balloon (ignoring the weight of the
