While all the Field Day reports are not in yet I am aware of multiple Field Day contacts in British Columbia with the International Space station. From the limited information received thus far and the material contained in the attachment it would appear the folks on the space station had a rather busy time. The fact they took the time out to do this work is much appreciated by all involved.
