Yeah, it's been a while.  My last was with Richard Garriott, when he was a "tourist" on the ISS some years ago.

Sorry to get everyone's hopes up for a random contact with the crew.  In other emails, it's clear that the "crew active" flag has been (correctly) used to log ARISS contacts.  I thought I was well outside of the footprint so they couldn't have been ARISS, but should have done a bit more homework.

Dear all,

I would love to make a QSO with the iSS.

What frequency active?

Where were you when you heard the crew?
