ARISS Activity

On Wednesday afternoon, 17 January 2007, I caught some ARISS activity from the International Space Station on the usual downlink frequency 145.800 and using the callsign R0ISS. Astronaut Sunita Williams was in QSO with students conducting a Q&A session about life on the ISS. The signal was excellent and I was able to listen to 10 minutes of the session. The pass continued longer, but I had just arrived at work and had to turn off the radio and go in. T
