Frank was awarded by International Space Station National Laboratory at the ISSRDC conference last week for his work with ARISS.
It says in part, "Inspiring the next generation and bringing individuals around the world together through the use of ham radio."

This will be a voice contact using the Service Module radio. That means the packet repeater (currently APRS) will be impacted during the event.

ARISS is in it's 23rd year of making #[0] contacts with students on the International Space Station. Today is the anniversary of our 1,000th contact. (We're over 1,500 now!)
