ARISS Program

So a few weeks ago my cousin came over to help with a few projects that couldn’t be done alone. One was restringing the cable for the long wire antenna.

We got talking about amateur radio and school activities, then about the ARISS program. We reviewed the current program and required documentation plus submitting dates. Well, he took the information to teachers at Oswego School District, and I believe we have a few that want to do a live chat with the ISS next fall.

Thus, I thought I should give everyone an update, and possibly notice that we might be getting a request to support a live chat session. The current deadline is February 29, and according to my cousin I should be hearing something soon.

I think this will be a wonderful opportunity for the club to promote Amateur Radio. Plus if anyone has a child, niece or nephew, or knows someone in any of the school districts, now is the time to share the information.
