Show Notes (contains affiliate links): Fast and Stupid Satellite Contacts 

 

On this week's episode of Ham Radio Crash Course, a podcast roughly

based on amateur radio but mostly made up of responding to emails from

listeners, hosted by Josh Nass - KI6NAZ and his reluctant wife, Leah -

KN6NWZ, we talk about ISS passes, Satellite contacts and tsunami disasters.
