RE: [amsat-bb] ISS crewman on voice

I actually spotted the ISS overhead Saturday PM but was trying to unload my
family from the minivan and put two sleeping kids to bed.  By the time they
were down, so was the ISS. :(

For the second Friday night/Saturday morning in a row, it sounds like I am 
the only one in North America listening to 145.80.  One of the cosmonauts
has 
been on using RS0ISS calling CQ and apparantly no one else wants to talk.  
Last Saturday AM we had about a 6 minute QSO, and it wasn't until the second

time he called that I answered, as it was tonight.  I kept it short this 
time, but still heard him calling CQ several times without any takers after 
we finished.  The weekends are usually the only times they have free to make

random contacts, so let's hear some more earth station activity.  We don't 
want to make them think we're not interested in them anymore.
