Congrats on 19 years!
"We continue to move closer to a planned March 2020 launch of the hardware on SpaceX-20."
This is excellent news.

All,
On November 13, 2000, the ARISS amateur radio payload was turned on and the first operations occurred over Russia and the United States. So today is our 19th operations anniversary.
Our ARISS team is working feverishly on the final certification of our next generation radio system: the Interoperable Radio System. We thank all those that have supported this development effort through team support as well as donations!! We continue to move closer to a planned March 2020 launch of the hardware on SpaceX-20.
