Radio Station KKOB - (770 AM) is the official radio station of the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta.
KKOB has an FM side but I'm not sure if they broadcast from the field 94.5 FM.
I find having a bookmark on my smart phone for the The Daily Event Schedule is helpful.
TV Station KOAT (ABC Channel 7 / 7.1) has a iPhone App AND an Android App that provides, news, weather & schedule
Also KOB TV (NBC Channel 4 / 4.1) also broadcasts from the site. TV station KRQE (FOX Channel 13 / 13.1) provides local coverage too.
Weather looks good (no rain) - Winds are generally calm enough in the morning for launch,
HOWEVER forecasted winds could be a factor, (maximum launch wind is 10 knots / 11.5 mph).
