[Blog] Successful ISS ham demo for a young space fan!
Congratulations on the successful demo. Now take the next step. Apply for your own ARISS school contact. If you are successfully accepted, then it is even more fun. The info below has been posted several times recently but here it is again. Good luck! 73,Charlie Sufana AJ9NOne

A good idea worth mentioning for those who haven't done one yet.
The ARISS contact I did with Mark Hammond, N8MH for Moore Square Magnet Middle School in downtown Raleigh was so satisfying. The preparation and set up and having all the kids cheer, and astronaut Scott Tingle try to convey that he was just as excited as us (hard to believe but it seems a lot of astros say that), was so much fun and so rewarding.
Here is the video:

P.S. thanks to Roy for receiving the pass from his QTH and sending me the audio. I was so excited when I ended the contact I talked over Scott when he thanked me and the father of the student whose ideas the whole thing was (Jim Scarborough, KE4ROH). Wouldn't have heard that otherwise.
