Steve,
Have you reviewed JoAnne Maenpaa's, K9JKM, paper that she wrote for Symposium a couple years back. The abstract reads: This article is aimed toward introducing new Amateur Radio Satellite operators to ARISS packet operations using radio equipment that they may already own. This is intended to be a guide to repurposing their terrestrial equipment for a start on space activities using the strong and predictable downlink of the ISS.

OK. Is there actually any way for an old man who only sort of knows computers to actually do packet on the ISS? I have tried MixW, UISS, AGWPE, UZ7?? soundmodem, and they all have me baffled.
I have MixW set up to do PSK31 and MMSSTV does a good job on the SSTV from ISS, so I'm not completely computer ignorant. Is there a user friendly packet program, that only requires one download and has an easy set-up?
