Space Station Field Day 2004 Operation Possible:
The crew of the International Space Station--astronaut Mike Fincke, KE5AIT, and cosmonaut Gennady Padalka, RN3DT--could be on the air for Field Day 2004. ISS Ham Radio Project Engineer Kenneth G. Ransom, N5VHO, says he's sent Field Day operating instructions and pass times to the ISS support team at Johnson Space Center for relay to Fincke this week.
"Those instructions state that Mike should be operating as NA1SS, '1 Alfa ISS,'" Ransom said. "Mike was also notified that anytime he is over North or South America would be a chance to operate." Ransom says that if Padalka gets on the air, he'll identify as RS0ISS and give the same exchange. Fincke and Padalka would use the Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) radio gear aboard the spacecraft
The tentative plan calls for Fincke to be on FM using the standard ISS voice frequencies for contacts in ITU Region 2--144.49 MHz up and 145.80 MHz down. Ransom said that if Padalka also participates, he would operate on the same 2-meter frequency pair, and the Expedition 9 crewmates would likely trade off on passes.
Since ARISS has two radios aboard, it's possible that both Fincke and Padalka could get on the air at the same time. If that happens, one would be on 2 meters while the second would operate 437.55 MHz FM simplex. Ransom cautions, however, that Doppler shift in the 70-cm band is significantly greater than on 2 meters.

WELL IT IS FINALLY HERE
The 1st Sargant and I got up at 3am and went fishing and got 7 nice Cats (26lbs).
They are all cleaned and in the fridge.
Now Beerman CEF322 / KC9EBM and I are headed out to the Red Cross Building to set up a Tent that the 1st Sargant and I donate every year for the CIRC (Central Illinois Radio Club) Field Day events.

KB,
I caught 3 and the 1st Sargant caught 4 this morning.
My 3 weighed a total of 12 lbs
Shirleys 4 weighed a little over 14 lbs
The HAMMER? YOU BETCHA
Why do you think she always catches more than me!
I would of Caught more but I was fighting with getting the fish off of her poles so she could re-bait.
She cuts the Chicken Livers we use into Little KB Dolls with OREOS in there hands and puts them on the hooks and then freezes them.
Not sure if the Fish are after the KB look a like or the Oreo part.
