Actually, I believe that these are using helium. (i.e. Gas rather than Hot
Air balloons) Can't find anything that really says though...

http://www.gasballooning.org/ is the association web site.

Definitely an interesting use for APRS and nice to see they have licensing
info and the like on their web site. Also thought it was a nice touch to
have a reference copy of the club calls on the site.
