After several frustrating hours of trying to get the software set up properly, I finally managed to get Packet Engine Pro and UISS working in time for a good pass of the ISS over the Southeastern US.
It was really something to see the software display stations and plot them on a map as the ISS passed overhead. Even more so to see my own callsign digipeated through the software.
Next up is to attempt a full fledged QSO through the ISS in real-time.
My special thanks to Joanne Maenpaa, K9JKM whose paper on working through the ISS using software was most helpful.
I used my Icom IC-910H with a Signalink interface instead of a hardware TNC.
Having a blast on the birds, and this just adds a whole other element of fun to the process.
