Greetings,
According to http://www.aprs.org/iss-faq.html WHAT PATH DO I USE? All APRS satellites and the ISS support the generic paths of ARISS or APRSAT. Since all of these satellites supports the same generic paths (when properly configured), this means you can operate either ISS or PCsat or PSAT without reconfiguring your TNC! Just set your UNPROTO path to APRS VIA ARISS and it should work with all APRS birds.
And: http://aprs.org/psat2.html Sister APRS Satellites: Other APRS transponder satellites on orbit or in work all share a common uplink, a generic digipeter alias (APRSAT and ARISS) and a common downlink (145.825 MHz) so all user traffic appears on the live APRS satellite downlink page and ISS downlink page. The graphic below shows how the commonality of all this operaation integrates together with worldwide users and the internet linked ground stations.
Are these statements really true? If so, why would I consider using the PATH of PFS3-1 for FalconSAT-3 or RS0ISS for ISS?
Thank you!
Best regards, Fred N7FMH
