At the risk of someone saying "you do it", here is a suggestion:

Worked all States Balloon Award.

1. You would need a QSL card from all 50 states.
2. The contact would have to be through an unmanned amateur balloon
launched from anywhere.
3. You could be located at different locations around the US not
necessarily at home.
4. The contact could be analog, digital, or video.
5. It must be a 2 way contact.
6. Cross mode acceptable, ie Video to you, voice or packet back to the source.
7. Another option is you could work to the balloon, like the satellite robots.

Just a wild thought, while I dodge work.

73,
