[K6NCG] Antarctica phone patches?

[Dr. Rick Olsen]

The most memorable was running a phone patch for CBS News to a scientist down on the ice while Neil Armstrong was stepping off the ladder for the very first time.

Group,

A couple of people in the office here have worked in Antarctica.  One is going back shortly. I’m trying to show her the value of ham radio.

I remember hearing stories of K6NCG working phone patches for KC4US_ stations back in the day on 14292.

Does anyone here have any recollections of working Antarctica?

Incidentally, I try to use 14292 as a CQ channel whenever I use the club call. Seems traditional.
