[aprssig] K6RPT-13 High-Altitude Balloon Launch Saturday AM 5 Feb 2011

[Stephen H. Smith]

California Near Space Project is planning its next high altitude Flight K6RPT-13 on Saturday February 5, 2011, at 8:00 a.m. Pacific Standard Time  (1600 UTC) from San Jose, California.

This will be a hydrogen filled balloon for higher performance with a very low payload weight that will only be carrying an APRS tracking system.
