W5KUB is not associated with Hamvention in any way

We have decided to NOT work HF mobile this year. Broadcast will take all our time.


And the most important people are our chatroom administrators:
Kathy Medlin,   N7NBB, AD7MT, AC5CM, KA5CIU, VA3UG, W5FOX, KG4WIJ, NZ9T, K9JKM, N0RIS and AB8KO

It takes about 15 people full time to keep this broadcast going.

Astronaut Col. Doug Wheelock
commander of Expedition 25 of the ISS was our special guest on Friday and Saturday last year.

Col. Wheelock answered questions from our world wide audience.
W5KUB personally talked to Col. Wheelock 28 times while he was
aboard the ISS and sent him Memphis BBQ for one of his first
meals when he arrived back in Houston for quarantine.
