[K3PZN-List] ARISSat-1 Deploy! Bring Your HT to Work!

[Kilroy, Patrick L. (GSFC-5680)]

ARISSat-1, to be deployed by hand from

the ISS tomorrow morning, will be a big

hit in schools, clubs and the news media.



I hope many of you/us in the club will

go outside with an HT to hear some of the

initial passes!
