Other groups are using Mylar balloons. They are much stronger and typically do not pop. They reach the jet stream, around 37000 feet, and will travel for long distances. Lighter payloads being the trade off.
GMC's make excellent Field Day operations. 6 kw powers lots of radio sets. A/C makes all the difference here in the Deep South. 89 degrees in the shade at our Field Day site.
