Subject: [Mas] ALL Ham crew now on ISS

With the docking of Soyuz TMA-04M
early this morning we now have
Expedition 31 Crew (May 2012 - July 2012 ):
Commander:                Oleg Kononenko      RN3DX
Flight Engineer:          André Kuipers       PI9ISS
Flight Engineer:          Don Pettit          KD5MDT
Flight Engineer:          Joe Acaba           KE5DAR
Flight Engineer:          Gennady Padalka     RN3DT
Flight Engineer:          Sergei Revin        RN3BS

on board.

I think this is the first time the entire crew were hams.

You can listen in with just a hand held scanner or talk with them with a
ham 2m transceiver.
