<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2>Suppose I wanted to transmit a stream of weather data
to the pilot of a hot air balloon. The balloon would be not be more than a 5
mile radius from the transmission site and at an altitude of no more than 5000
feet. The balloon would have receive-only capability. </FONT></STRONG></DIV>

<DIV><STRONG><FONT size=2>What hardware would I need to send the data stream
from my position to the balloon. Is this a feasible idea? </FONT></STRONG></DIV>
