ARISS

Well again with the late posting, on the 10th of November, Hannah (VK3GNU) and myself (VK3LNX) had the pleasure to attend Andersons Creek primary school, to help out with an ARISS contact. Not that we really did any of the hard work as that was done by VK5ZAI and then to the school via a telebridge.

Though I had been asked to do a quick Q&A on stage in front of a few hundred people by Rob (VK3KRB) about how long I’d been in amateur radio and what I had done.

After me Jim (VK3AMN) also gave a quick talk about what he has done with radio, and then finally the contact went ahead.

Anyway it was a fun night and a pleasure to be there (more information can be found on the wia website.)
