First Contact!

No sooner than I came back from the ham radio store with a new Arrow 146/437-10 antenna, I was proud, thrilled and honored to work NA1SS on a perfect afternoon pass. I heard the ISS at 10 degrees above the horizon, and scored my QSO at 2131 UTC 10 July 2010 with the station at 79 degrees elevation. When I mentioned my qth, the crew member said "well it looks like a nice day from up here..a few puffy clouds, and best wishes from the entire crew aboard the ISS". My neighbors and I listened to the pass as they mad qso's into OK and TN. Did I mention my handheld power? 2.5 watts. I used the published split to make this contact.
