What goes up and doesn’t come down (or at least for now)? The International
Space Station that’s what. The ISS has been up since 1998 (first module) and
will be orbiting the Earth until 2028 or when it is sold off to the Ru………. or
Chi……….. Just joking! Since there is a ton of things happening to the ISS, it
seemed like a good time to bring in an expert to tell the club members (and
visitors) just what is going on at the ISS in relation to amateur radio and
other communications systems that the station has. So……
Kyle Brewer, KE5IJ, of NASA will be at the general meeting to explain all the
different communications system on the International Space Station and what is
new in amateur radio for the ISS. Kyle visited the club the club in 2016 and
gave us an insight at that time of what was in place on the ISS. After two
years, there has been a few changes and upgrades that should interest everyone.
So don’t miss Kyle’s presentation this Thursday. Ask Kyle what his wife is up
to – she works at NASA and was doing some interesting things with how
commercial aircraft are built.
Don’t forget the new BVARC raffle – “ A station in a Box”. Several people will
be at the meeting selling chances for someone to win a 756 Pro II complete with
everything except a tree. Everyone should take a chance at only $2.00 per
ticket ( or 5 for $10).
In case someone has forgotten how to get the Sugar Land Masonic Lodge, I have
attached a link to Google maps.

I hope everyone can make it to the meeting for Kyle’s presentation.
