Hi Gregg,
Yes, I have worked the ISS APRS from the D7, but I thought the 145.800 voice downlink was paired with a 1.2 ghz uplink this week. I didn't think to try the other modes. Are they up too?

Hi Ron,
I heard you on the ISS repeater this morning, around 17:20z I think. Nice signal received on my Kenwood D7 HT with a Diamond RH-77B antenna attached. The second station I heard (I assume it was Jeff, but don't remember the call sign) was actually a bit stronger, but I expect it was just the position of the Station relative to me (CM98).
I was out on a walk with my wife, so couldn't try to get back to you.
Even without the yagi, I bet you could of gotten in. I've worked APRS on the D7 off the ISS without problems, standing in the yard without a yagi.
