Amateur Radio Roundatable
Subject: Ham Radio from Space
Trying to go where no other ham radio program has gone before, W5KUB.COM will
bring in Astronaut Douglas Wheelock, KF5BOC, from Star City, Russia to our live
show Tuesday night June 21st. Star City is in Moscow Oblast, Russia, which has
been home to the Yuri Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Center since the 1960s. Doug
will discuss ham radio from the ISS and other interesting topics.
Doug is presently the Director of NASA in Russia and is on a 6 month
assignment. He has been on our show many times and is always informative and
interesting as he discusses his missions in space and ham radio. Doug was very
popular on ham radio aboard the ISS and made thousands of contacts. He will be
getting up at 4:00 AM local Russian time to be on the show live. Please help
us spread the word and join us. From our chat room, please submit your
questions and we will try to get as many answered as possible.
In an effort to get this amazing story out to as many hams as possible, Paul
Braun, WD9GCO, field reporter and fill-in anchor at Amateur Radio Newsline,
will join us during the show. Theresa Williams KE5MUX
