Re: [amsat-bb] Cool Picture from Mir on CNN site

[Bill Richarz <wricharz@xxxxxxxx>]

I worked Norm several times when he was aboard MIR...was mostly
2-3 o'clock in the morning...he wanted to talk and liked to work
everyone that called.  I have several recordings of our contacts
including one my daughter made...only thing was, I could only
record the MIR side of the contact since she was around 300 miles
away....Nice souvenirs, plus the QSL cards.
