LF: balloons for raising antennas...

[Scott Tilley <sthed475@telus.net>]

Hi All

I'm preparing for a mini-expedition to a small islet about 2km off the 
coast of where I live.  The islet is a small rocky outcrop with a small 
lagoon to safely habour a small launch and allow for grounding plates to 
be deployed into the salt water.
From those that have launched balloon supported antennas what type of 
balloon was used and can you provide other details?  Kites are not being 
considered for this operation due to uncertain wind conditions.
