Rick,
Glad to get you through the ISS. Not only did we make the exchange using APRS messages from our TH-D72A HTs, our HTs sent the ACKs as we received each other's messages which were retransmitted by the ISS digipeater. In the log, and now in Logbook of the World if you use that system.
This was fun! Not much time for radio this weekend, but QSOs through the ISS digipeater with my TH-D72A as well as SO-50 and AO-85 with my KG-UV9D HT. Not bad! Maybe I'll work you next weekend from somewhere in southern Nevada...
73!
