<P>Since you mentioned the ISS, on 1/14/06 I made a contact with the
ISS via Ham Radio UHF, Cmdr Bill McArthur (KC5ACR) heard and repeated my
call (N7TMY) thru the probable pile up and I will get a QSL card! (I sent one
of course). They were using the International Space Sta. call sign of NA1SS
and we had contact as he passed over the NW USA on 437.550 MHz, using a
vertical w/ 35W!! Not bad, huh??</P>
<P>For the Hams in this group, this will mean something and they will
understand how cool this is.</P>
<P>For the non-Hams, sorry for the off-topic, but I couldn't resist telling
this way-cool story!</P>
<P>Trisha ~ Lightning<BR><BR></P>
