Got up this morning at 1100 utc to look for the VKs.
As I inflated my 5 foot balloon it "popped." By the time
I had recruited and rigged up a replacement the sun
was coming up here in KS. One of the pitfalls of using
a balloon supported antenna. I suspect quite a few
little pistol stations in the midwest and further east
still need VK on 160.
