INSTEAD OF MONITORING BABY, SHE WAS MONITORING NASA

Natalie Meilinger was surprised when she looked at her baby monitor to

monitor her baby, but instead she saw video from NASA. In fact, it was

black-and-white video from inside the space shuttle Atlantis.

Fortunately there are 2 channels on her video baby monitor and the

other one still shows her baby. Authorities believe that the video is

not coming right from the shuttle, but perhaps from NASA's website. An

Amateur radio operator from nearby Schaumburg has an explanation. Doug

Phelps says that his organization the Illinois chapter of the Motorola

Amateur Radio Club rebroadcasts NASA video as a public service. Also,

baby monitors and amateur radios operate on the same frequency.
