ARRL and AMSAT are\ncompletely consistent on this.\n\nOn the other hand, a contact between two earth stations\nthat use a transponder that happens to be on the ISS is\nclearly a satellite contact. Again, it does not matter\nwhether it is packet or FM.\n\nI believe PCSAT-2 was denied an OSCAR number because it\nwas just another payload on board the ISS, it is not an\nautonomous satellite. Just as you would not give separate\nOSCAR numbers to AO-51's Mode V/U and mode L/S transponders\nsince they are just additional payloads.\n\nOn the other hand, contacts through PCSAT-2 certainly\ncount as satellite contacts. This is also clearly AMSAT\npolicy. From the AMSAT web site::\n\n\"...there is no requirement for an OSCAR number to be\nassigned to a satellite in order for it to be legitimately\nrecognized and used in the amateur satellite service.\"\n\nI think the major point of confusion for many people is that\na contact with a manned spacecraft does not count as a satellite\ncontact because it is not a relay station and ARRL and AMSAT\nboth agree here.\n\n73,\nTony AA2TX\n\n",
