Hi, - here's a recordign of my very brief QSO with Charles/NA1SS, and more audio (Hungarian???) a little later - I missed PD0RKC's QSO, although I did hear him make contact.

Best wishes

I had the great opportunity to be the 3rd person to contact Charles on ISS. It was pure luck for me, as I was just getting ready to go to bed, so I was setting up my remote base and recorder. For some reason I decided to park pary my VFO on 145.800 packet mode. I heard Charles calling CQ and went for my Voice ISS memory channel. That is where you hear the beep on my recording that can be found on Cor's website http://pd0rkc.ontwikkel.nl/ My audio was hooked directly to the radio, so you don't hear me talking.

I my QSO with Charles, Gave him my name qth etc...Then I had told him how much of an honor it was to speak with him on ISS. I also mentioned that it has been close to a year without any activity from ISS. I Asked him to get on the air as much as possible, as there were many HAMS worldwide waiting to talk to him. I also told him that he was being recorded, and if there was anything he wanted to say to the world. That part of audio is at 25 seconds.
