⦿ ISS CREW SHORT QSO

The Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) Program facilitates radio communications. Radio enthusiasts can contact astronauts on the International Space Station (ISS) via amateur radio. This program enables students and ham radio hobbyists to make contact with the ISS crew using specialized radio equipment (transceivers and antennas) and procedures.
