Re: Contact with ISS
Tried the voice repeater and the Astronauts frequency tonight but got nothing - came back inside and heard a packet from it - I think you're onto somethingVK6ZMS wrote:I think they may have turned packet back on. I am hearing data periodically on 145.8.

Re: Contact with ISS
Good visual on it last night.
If you want to monitor packets or use packet via ISS if the license class allows, consider UISS which uses the AGW Packet Engine for a software packet interface. AGW Packet Engine can also be used with other packet software too.

Re: Contact with ISS
AGW PE is great. I can access it using Visual Basic with ease. Also the documentation for extracting data for APRS is freely available in case you want do your own APRS manipulation. No luck with BBS protocol as yet.
