[TRLog] OFF Topic Post---ARISS contacts K7RAT

[Alan Kaul]

Sorry for the off-topic bandwidth, but NBC Weekend Nightly News with John
Siegenthaler, Saturday 3/30/2002, (((early evening network newscast in most
domestic cities))) is "planning" to air a 2-minute highlight's report on the
Amateur Radio in Space Station (ARISS) contact with K7RAT at the Boring, Oregon,
Deep Creek School.

The actual radio contact lasted about 9-minutes as the Space Station passed
overhead on March 8th.

Unfortunately, news developments sometimes cause the "planned" items in a
broadcast to be shuffled, dropped, etc.  But as of this writing, the item is
scheduled for broadcast.
