[amsat-bb] ISS Contacts

[Clint Bradford]

>> ... I am again disappointed to learn that random unscheduled contacts are still uncommon ...

Well, the astronauts are quite busy up there ... (grin)

That is what makes the scheduled amateur radio time so exciting - like last Field Day when 
we were able to make voice contacts ... Heck, I used just two Watts and a handheld tape measure 
beam for my contact ...

And, of course, monitoring hams should never try to interrupt or contact during any of the scheduled 
ARISS contacts.

Watch issfanclub.com, amsat-uk.org, and amsat.org for announcements of possible "windows" of 
opportunities!
