Four zones (A-D) with 16 frequencies in each zone".

So we finally have a winner: KC7QYR Michael from Seattle is the lucky winner of the IFC gift.

To pick is name up we used a computer program wich generated a random number between 1 and 130 (the range of numbers where the first 100 valid subscribers where located).

We a valid number (101) at first try.

Congratulations Michael !

STS-112's launch countdown began over the weekend at Kennedy Space Center, Fla., and preparations remain on schedule for lift off. The STS-112 crew arrived at KSC Sunday morning.
