Upcoming ARISS Contact Schedule as of 2003-07-10 01:00 UTC
The ARISS (a joint effort of AMSAT, the ARRL, NASA, the ARISS international
partners including Canada, Russia, the European Partners, and Japan)
operations team wishes to announce the following very tentative schedule for
ARISS school contacts. This schedule is very fluid and may change at the
last
minute.
Remember that amateur radio use on the ISS is considered secondary. Please
check the various AMSAT and ARISS webpages for the latest announcements.
Changes from the last announcement are noted with (***). Also, please check
MSNBC.com for possible live retransmissions
(http://www.msnbc.com/m/lv/default.asp). Listen for the ISS on the downlink
of 145.80 MHz.

Currently the ARISS operations team has a list of over 60 schools that we
hope will be able to have a contact during 2003. As the schedule becomes
more solidified, we will be letting everyone know. Current plans call for
an average of one scheduled school contact per week.
[ANS thanks Charlie, AJ9N, for the above information]
