For all of you Ice Pilots TV show fans, the first episode of season 5 was
scheduled to have some of an ARISS contact that occurred a few months back.
Depending on where you are located, the times and cable TV providers may
change.
History Channel is airing the show for the first time Wednesday October 23
at 22:00 EDT or Thursday October 24 at 02:00 UTC.
Below are several on-line links to where you can watch it:

If you are in Australia, apparently the History Channel is available via
Pay-TV.

ARISS is requesting listener reports for the above contacts. Due to
issues with the Kenwood radio that are not fully understood at present, the
Ericsson radio is going to be used for these contacts. ARISS thanks everyone
in advance for their assistance. Feel free to send your reports to
aj9n at amsat.org or aj9n at aol.com.

US Hams, don’t forget that there is a new process for US school proposals.
For US schools to have an ARISS contact, they must fill out a proposal,
submit it to NASA, and see if they are approved or not. Once a school is
approved and put on the list, an ARISS mentor will be assigned to assist the
school.
NASA will have two open windows a year for schools to submit a proposal.
The window for contacts during the second half of 2012 has already closed.
Look for the window for first half 2013 contacts later this year. You
must go through NASA to get the proposal material. Contact Teaching From
Space, a NASA Education office, at JSC-TFS-ARISS at mail.nasa.gov or by calling
them at (281) 244-2320.
The following US states and entities have never had an ARISS contact:
Arkansas, Delaware, Kansas, North Dakota, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Vermont,
West Virginia, Wyoming, American Samoa, Guam, Northern Marianas Islands,
and the Virgin Islands.
