Help ARISS raise funds for critical ISS radio upgrades

*AMSAT* and *ARISS* are currently supporting a FundRazr campaign to raise
$150,000 for critical radio infrastructure upgrades on ISS.
The upgrades are necessary to enable students to continue to talk to
astronauts in space via Amateur Radio.

ARISS is in critical need of infrastructure upgrades to ensure that
programs such as talking to astronauts in space using Amateur Radio can
continue. Through your donations ARISS seeks the following upgrades:

+ Next Generation radio systems that will support easier
transition to enable new, exciting radio modes and capabilities for hams,
students and the general public including:

* New Amateur Radio communication and experiment capabilities including an
enhanced voice repeater and updated digital Automatic Packet Reporting
System (APRS), and
* Slow Scan TV (picture up and downlinks) in both US and Russian segments
of the ISS.

+ A new multi voltage power supply that will support present and future
radio capabilities and allow wireless experiments to be conducted.

ARISS needs to build ten Next Generation radio systems to support the
development of on-orbit operations, training and long term maintenance.
This includes two units for on-orbit use (one unit each for the US and
Russian segments), two units for flight spares, three units for training,
one unit for testing, and two units for ground-based maintenance and
troubleshooting.

AMSAT is a 501(c)(3) organization. Donations are tax deductible to the
extent allowed by law.
