[W5SFA] Balloon Launch

[Gilbert Franke]

I don't know what is the matter with my WSPR receiver.  I am not getting
any decodes.  I think it may be a strong signal that is a constant
interference.  I'll keep monitoring and hope to send spots into the WSPR
Net eventually.  I'm glad there are other stations hearing KF5ZRT/A!
