[SMCARA] Fwd: [sarex] All 50 states QSL cards arrive at ARRL

[A.J. Farmer (AJ3U)]

QSL cards from all 50 of the United States of America have now arrived
at the ARRL QSL bureau in Newington, CT and the process to file for a
special "WAS from Space" for Bill McArthur can begin.

McArthur will depart the International Space Station on April 8  after
serving on board for nearly 190 days. He will take several amateur radio
achievements to Earth with him:

First to work all states (CONFIRMED)
First to work all seven continents on VHF and UHF
37 school contacts, the most ever worked by an individual
First to work 100+ DXCC entities from space
Only expedition to work Peter I Island
Over 1700 general contacts

Thanks for a great six months!
