And now for something VHF related, but in a different slant:


After 7 weeks of preparation,  and a one day delay, the students were
able to ask the Japanese astronaut 20 questions about space.
Here are two clips from TV13 and TV8.

Minor point. Both Doug Papay, KD8CAO and Mike Wolthuis, KB8ZGl were
interviewed at length about amateur radio, and yet, neither TV station
piece talks about amateur radio, just that the students used a "radio".
