"That's interesting.  I used to hear occasional Russian on 143.625.  I think
they used it for EVA in their space program.  I somehow thought they were
still using it at ISS.  I still have it in my scan."

Air to ground for over five decades.  From http://www.svengrahn.pp.se/ :

"On 7 August 1961, TASS issued a communiqué about the continued flight of
Vostok-2 and repeated the radio frequencies used by the cosmonaut (20.006
MHz, 143.625 MHz), "

Probably used several times a day, but, unless you're in Europe, not much
chance of hearing anything.
