Re: [BVARC] Repeater
I still remember Saturday Feb 1, 2003 like yesterday. Listening early in the morning getting ready to take my brother to take his ham test. Listening to the NASA feed and feeling very confused at first and then realizing what was happening I ran to my television to turn on the news. I suppose the testing was suspended or we were too sad to go. Hearing the ham community rally to go help in the recovery process made me feel proud and frustrated I didn’t have the tools to help. Organizers were looking for hams with 4x4s with mobiles to facilitate the search. It took weeks if not years to recover all the pieces. I certainly hope our special connection with NASA is never taken for granted, and that we never lose the spirit of exploration and curiosity. -AD5OS On Sat, Mar 11, 2023 at 9:15 PM Darren Harrison via BVARC wrote: > Sounds cool!!

[BVARC] Repeater
I have given the hams at NASA W5RRR permission to use the 146.940 repeater to NOTA (Nasa on the Air) during the day to inform and report on the upcoming space flights. They will not interfere with the basic use of the repeater or our nets. A number of years ago they would broadcast the NASA select audio on their repeater in Clear Lake area.
