Congratulations Ranae! That is a huge achievement!

[@WhatsUpWithSix]

Thanks. I am wildly proud of her

[@johnsonstechworld]

The thumbnail was there on QRZ front page for quite some time! Well done! Wonder whether they noted Doppler shift in the signal frequency like what we notice for LEO satellite QSOs? May be not, because the speed of descend will be quite slow compared to velocity of satellites. 73 de Jon, VU2JO.

[@Steven_VE9SY]

Congrats to the XYL!! Some how you disappeared from my ply list. I don't know when. Glad this video popped up in my feed!

[@WhatsUpWithSix]

Welcome back!

[@kaitlinkd9who]

Congratulations Ranae. If I have learned anything in Ham Radio, sometimes we need a safe push and we find a whole new world out there.

[@WhatsUpWithSix]

She is actually enrolled in jump school in April to get her solo jump license. I think she's hooked!

[@kaitlinkd9who]

Well with a safe push and friendly bet, that is how I got into ham radio as whole. Then with safe pushes from find myself learning other things like kit building, and contesting. I hope we hear more about Ranae journey.

[@scentseller]

[@VA3OSO]

Seems she's not the first woman to make a qso skydiving but still an amazing accomplishment for any operator.

[@WhatsUpWithSix]

That's what someone said. Waiting to see QSL cards or logs etc. Either way is was so fun to watch her have a great time in our hobby.

[@ramonbennett8416]

Soooooo awesome!!!!

[@miker8379]

Are all QSO’s that long? Nice jump. I’ve always wanted to do that.

[@WhatsUpWithSix]

They weren't long at all. Very short due to late opening of canopy. Not much time.
