Hello Towertalkians-

We would be grateful for your input on using a Balloon and wire on 160 
meters.  Such as:

1) What wire size should be used on various balloon sizes? 
2) What is better: a single balloon or dual balloons?
3) Do the balloons usually need helium added each day?
4) Do you need a special nozzle to fill the balloon?
5) Sources for balloons?
6) Are radials needed if the balloon is launched over salt water?
7) Any other recommendations you have for a novice ballon launcher!

Thank You-
Cornerstone Radio Club- NO4S
