["Graham Shirville" <g.shirville@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

The ARISS team led by Carlos Eavis G0AKI from RSGB and Howard Long G6LVB from AMSAT-UK provided a perfect ARISS School Contact yesterday.

The local BBC Television news report can be found here - plenty of good "amateur radio" references are included!
