Virgin Atlantic GlobalFlyer special event on the air (Mar 2, 2005) --
Special event station K0KSU will be on the air from Kansas in conjunction
with the Virgin Atlantic GlobalFlyer round-the-world solo flight by Bob
Fossett, who took off from Kansas February 28. The aviation adventurer is
expected to return to Kansas sometime on March 3. A spokesperson for the
Kansas State University-Salina Amateur Radio Club told ARRL that K0KSU is
operating during daylight hours only on 20 and 15 meter SSB (K0KSU has been
worked at 14.259 MHz). QSLs will bear the likeness of the GlobalFlyer, with
permission from Virgin Atlantic. The club is hoping to revitalize the
university station with this event.
