[Vk5-wx-sonde] Tonight's Sonde (N3710309)

[Tim VK5ZT]

Hi all

As I said in a previous post, I have been giving the owners an aerial 
view of the sonde LZ and site/contact details.

Only really useful if you are going out after the flight so cards of 
some kind might be handy for 'live' retrievals...

Cheers

Tim VK5ZT
