[aprssig] Here we go again...sigh

I'd bet that most of the balloon folks are occasional or rare APRS users. Maybe never before. How are they to know - bet they have no information that even tells them how a digi path works, let alone the knowledge to make a "best judgement".

Is there a central web site (or several) where balloon people go for technical information? That would be a great place to post something about configuring APRS for balloon flights.

How about QST or other general distribution ham venues? A short bit on beacon rates and preferred paths for balloons might actually get where it needs to go.
