My contacts with spacecraft.  Back in the early 1990's I made contact with the Space Shuttle's Columbus and Atlantis.  I also made contact with the Russain space station, Mir.  I just got out of the Army and getting ready to go to the local tech school.  So I had little money.  Now, make sure you are sitting!  I made contact with them on my Kenwood mobile from my car!  All you need to do is listen.  The rule with Mir was, if you heard it then an hour and half from that time you will hear it again.  For base operation, use an 1/4 wave ground plane.  High gain agains don't send your signal to the horizon like a 1/4 wave does.  Happy Space DXing!

Notes:
If you live in or around the Wausau Area. You can hear shuttle and ISS retransmittions on the KC9NW Repeater, 147.060 MH
