Chris - here is a screen shot of your signals today - you can easily
see the increased strength when your balloon was up.

Hi Chris - The balloons were doing great on this beautiful day.
You came up to about 11/12 db above the noise on your 40m wire
with me on your first transmission. When you changed to the
balloons the signals went up to peak about 18dB above the noise.
You are now back to about 11dB above the noise. I'm using the long
term average from Spec Lab to estimate the noise floor.

LF,
The wind got up and the aerial wire snagged a tree,
capturing my balloons at 10.50Z.
I am now back on the end fed 40m still on 8.976 661 kHz
Comparisons in signal strengths of the two systems would
be interesting.
