This was posted on the NG sci.geo.satellite-nav this week. It is from the author of APRSPoint. I suggest that you check his web site:

I have used APRSPoint to track manned gas balloons flying in competition from ABQ, NM for the past several years (in October) and found it gets the job done. With S&T it is a usable and inexpensive solution for my tracking needs. Note that I have used it with MapPoint as I am a registered user. I am also a registered user of APRSPoint. I will be switching to S&T for this year's event however.
