Photos of Doug Wheelock on the ham radio
Hi!
NASA has posted 3 photos taken on Sunday (5 September) of Doug Wheelock using the ISS ham gear. It's also nice to see the captions identify the radio as a "ham radio system", instead of just a "communications system" as has been done in similar photos in the past. Here are links to the photos:

Those pics are great.
As a very recent first time listener of only a week or so (receive only so far, just looking into foundation license in the UK..),
to see pics of what it looks like from the ISS side when you've just recently heard them is excellent.
