I have no intent of ever  \ncomplaining in any way about us being able to talk through and to,  \nISS.  It's an amazing facet of our hobby that surprises many non- \nhams... \"They hauled a ham radio up there just so you guys can point  \nantennas at it and talk to it?\"  It's truly an amazing opportunity  \nmany of us take for granted!)\n\n--\nNate Duehr, WY0X\[email protected]\n\n\n\n",
