Hi Mindy:

As I write this your Aunt Jackie is in the other room talking to your mother [in Hawaii] on the phone.

I noticed that you had an inquiry about ham radio in Antarctica and I followed the link to look at the station. Apparently Sunday is a prime day for such contacts.

 How would you like to make a schedule and talk with me on ham radio? My call is K0TO [you might even remember that]. If you have time you can see my station here in Idaho on my web site www.k0to.us .

Let me know if you think we can try for a contact.

Your Uncle Tod

Hi Tod,I will try to contact you when the Ham Station opens on Sunday afternoon for me which is Saturday evening for you and anyone else Stateside that might want to join in.  I haven't been there yet, and my tour of McMurdo won't be complete until I can find the ham station and successfully contact you!
Lollie, I know Saturday night isn't ideal for most students... but see if any want to join in!  Mindy

Hi Mindy, thanks for the information! I will talk to some members of my local radio club. Saturday night is not great for bringing students in, but it would be great to make contact! I will get back to you!Lollie
