ISS Fan Club

Do you want to be part of the international network of ground stations that help support Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) operations? ARISS is looking to add numerous ground stations capable of relaying ISS amateur radio sessions with schools and also serve as back up communications relays should they be needed. Locations worldwide will be considered, but of greatest interest is the need for stations in Central America, South America, Falkland Islands, Western Australia, Canada, and Alaska.

The following are guidelines for stations wanting to be considered:

- Third Party agreement with United States or waiver from their telecom agency

For all of you that are still waiting for their certificates, please make sure that you forwarded your coordinates and reception reports to the ARISS delegate of your region/organization. The information will be collected and forwarded to the ARISS chair for processing.

For a list of the current delegates please go to: http://www.rac.ca/ariss/arissinf.htm

Hope this helps.
