Can you believe it??? I was going to buy a digital recorder tonight, and don't you know I contacted Col. Doug Wheelock on the ISS. Hoping someone has recording of contact on July 29, at 20:43 utc - my e-mail address is n5jf@att.net... Here's hoping I get Blessed again. You can bet I'll be buying that recorder tonight -HI! HI! 73's Joe-N5JF<><

If I am lucky enough to get a random voice contact with ISS, what does protocol dictate I should exchange with the operator there - name, location, grid-square or what? I don't want to hog the frequency with unnecessary info in order to give others a chance.

My son Matt and I made a couple of QSOs with Col. Douglas Wheelock onboard the ISS operating amateur radio NA1SS. We used a Yaesu VX-8R handheld and a 2-meter Arrow Yagi antenna.
