[SCCC] a cool thing by Tree

[Glenn Rattmann]

Some of you know this already, but Tree N6TR has done a very good thing
recently.  He arranged a schedule for contact between a local school (his
daughter's I think) and the Space Station.  This was done under the
auspices of the Boring (OR) ARC and the K7RAT club call, and the contact
with NA1SS was successful.  There was media coverage and taping.

Now we have learned the following.  The K7RAT-NA1SS QSO is now scheduled to
run as the show closer on Saturday's Weekend Nightly News on NBC.  It is
not guaranteed but looks very likely, apparently.

So, in between your WPX contacts this weekend, take a look at the news
show.  Maybe there's a new contester or two in the school group.  Get your
own kids to watch it, too.
