Cell Phone Repeater Balloon

Take a cell phone repeater, put a balloon on it.

So first you take a balloon, then you hang a cellphone repeater on it.

When you're lost in an area without cell service and dying of exposure, this can give you something to do to pass the time.

"Shouldn't you attach a string to it?"

Sure, if that makes you happy.

       Question: Would a package containing a non-repeating antenna and battery not serve just as well and weigh just as much, but be available on a multi-use basis?

       You know when you're in a public place or on a train or something and there is an irritating bloke having a loud conversation on his cellphone, and to make sure that everyone listening gets both sides of the story (to show how important he is) he repeats the information the person on the other end gives?

       That's the thing you'd tie to a balloon.

       No you are both wrong. The string is the thing that is attached to each of the other items.

       So you blow up the balloon, tie the repeater to it and this assembly floats gently to the ground. How would this assist in rescue?

       The repeater could be lighter than air
