Jim-
The bad cable affected the Columbus Module which had the new equipment. The Service Module is still working with the old radio. But, like previously, they rarely turn it on. Here's a website that shows current status of the radios: https://www.ariss.org/current-status-of-iss-stations.html
My take on this and what has been observed so far is that except for ARISS school contacts, amateur radio on the ISS is dead until we get the cable fixed.

Are all ham radio activities on the ISS affected by the recently reported problems with newly installed coax?? If I recall, a few school contacts had to be scrubbed. I am thinking it would be nice to get the APRS stuff working again, now that I'm set up to try it.
Thanks, 73
