On the same site https://www.mtcradio.com/ for their trade in used gear for
sale, as the Icom 910H they also show a Yaesu FT847 and also list an Yaesu

ARISS Contact Applications (United States)
The Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) Program is seeking formal and informal education institutions and organizations, individually or working together, to host an Amateur Radio contact with a crew member on board the ISS. ARISS anticipates that the contact would be held between July 1, 2021 and December 30,
2021. Crew scheduling and ISS orbits will determine the exact contact dates. To maximize these radio contact opportunities, ARISS is looking for organizations that will draw large numbers of participants and integrate the contact into a well-developed education plan.
The deadline to submit a proposal is November 24th, 2020. Proposal information and more details such as expectations, proposal guidelines and the proposal form can be found at www.ariss.org. An ARISS Introductory Webinar session will be held on October 8, 2020 at 8PM ET. The Eventbrite link to sign up is: https://ariss-proposal-webinar-fall-2020.eventbrite.com
The Opportunity
Crew members aboard the International Space Station will participate in scheduled Amateur Radio contacts. These radio contacts are approximately 10 minutes in length and allow students to interact with the astronauts through a question-and-answer session.
An ARISS contact is a voice-only communication opportunity via Amateur Radio between astronauts and cosmonauts aboard the space station and classrooms and communities. ARISS contacts afford education audiences the opportunity to learn firsthand from astronauts what it is like to live and work in space and to learn about space research conducted on the ISS. Students also will have an opportunity to learn about satellite communication, wireless technology, and radio science.
Because of the nature of human spaceflight and the complexity of scheduling activities aboard the ISS, organizations must demonstrate flexibility to accommodate changes in dates and times of the radio contact.
Amateur Radio organizations around the world with the support of NASA and space agencies in Russia, Canada, Japan and Europe present educational organizations with this opportunity. The ham radio organizations’ volunteer efforts provide the equipment and operational support to enable communication between crew on the ISS and students
around the world using Amateur Radio.
Please direct any questions to ariss.us.education(a)gmail.com.
For future proposal information and more details such as expectations, proposal guidelines and proposal form, and dates and times of Information Webinars, go to www.ariss.org.
About ARISS:
Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) is a cooperative venture of international amateur radio societies and the space agencies that support the International Space Station (ISS). In the United States, sponsors are the Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation (AMSAT), the American Radio Relay League (ARRL), the ISS National Lab and National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The primary goal of ARISS is to promote exploration of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEAM) topics by organizing scheduled contacts via amateur radio between crew members aboard the ISS and students in classrooms or public forms. Before and during these radio contacts, students, educators, parents, and communities learn about space, space technologies, and amateur radio. For more information, see www.ariss.org.

Hi to all, a friend of mine, has satpc32 with and SDR. We have the
doppler correction, when the satellites it's in AOS, de frequency it's
OK, in TCA has (for example) 1 KHz difference, and in LOS has 2 KHz
difference.
It's there any configuration to modify??? all the satellites that we
found, in AOS has the correct frequency, but in TCA and LOS its not the
same as we can see in the waterfall of HDSDR.
Ir i compare the doppler with http://www.amsat.org.ar/pass.htm the
frequency has the same between the waterfall and the webpage.
Thanks in advance.

For over a month, we have been attempting to TX and RX SSTV via PSAT2. We
discovered on Bob’s APRS page that PSAT2 can support users sending and
receiving SSTV as long as it detects PSK31 in the passband. While we were
unable to get SSTV to work via PSAT2 and experimentations are still on
going, we were able to successfully send SSTV from N8URE in Maryland to
KO4AQF in Florida. This required dozens of cases of trial and error. We
plan to publish the procedure in a future AMSAT journal article.
B/W SSTV:
https://i.imgur.com/nFG6UII.jpg
B/W was easier to decode than color.
In addition to SSTV, we discovered that PSAT will also support waterfall
drawing where the sound will draw the picture directly in the waterfall
display. This provides evidence that when PSK31 is detected that PSAT
transponder may become a bent pipe.
Waterfall picture
https://i.imgur.com/4fdvib6.png
More experimentations are planned. We attempted to send Olivia however it
was unable to be decoded. This may be due to the manual doppler being
performed and / or fade due to the satellite.
In order to send PSK31 to PSAT, we used upwards of 100-200 watts on the 10m
uplink. Downlink is UHF and must be Doppler corrected. You need a pitcher
and a catcher. In this case, the catcher was manually adjusting for Doppler
on a D72A using an Arrow antenna. Then the catcher used an iPhone Voice
Memo app to record then playback the audio. It can be decoded using fldigi
and SSTV can be decoded with your favorite sstv app.
I’d like to thank everyone who has helped us better understand and
participate along the way. Bob, Brno University, KK4YEL, KI5HHK, and N8URE
who did the heavy lifting of sending the data over the 10m uplink. Brno
University was instrumental in providing the right technical details along
with their github page for us to dial in our transmission.
More in depth technical details to follow
Signed,
