Oops...Fw: [amsat-bb] Russian amsat contacts?

["Alexander Chernienko" <chern@xxxxxxxxx>]

Sorry, mistyped in QTH calculator, of course not HP44, but BP64 (QS?).
Distance is 6570 Km, azimuth 1,95 deg (right over North Pole).
So, probably no chance, I never had QSO with QRB more than 4500 km thru LEO.
