[Vk5-wx-sonde] Sondehub & Chasemapper Recovery Reporting

[Paul Roehrs]

Thanks Mark for all your hard work.  I have shut down much home sonde 
tracker as I will soon be going away for an extended period.  I have 
enjoyed watching at least 5 sondes fall out of the sky thanks to 
chasemapper and I have also given a few other people the experience of 
seeing them also.  I will probably not set up the station again as I 
will need the time to follow other aspects of my hobby.  Thanks for all 
the fun and enjoy your sonde chasing
