ISS is just like any other satellite when it is operating in a relay mode such as the packet digi or voice repeater. Make your standard exchange of information necessary to confirm a contact.

What requirements are there for a valid QSO over the ISS digi? Is it the same as AO-51 where it is just an exchange of callsign and grid? Can it be done through the Comment text of an APRS HT like the VX8GR or THD72? Or is a tnc needed or software like UISS? _______________________________________________ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org.
