Steve,
an ISS QSL card is awarded for also just listening.
sorry for implying that one can interrupt/transmit during a scheduled ARISS contact.

--------------- Isacc,
if you are into QSL cards check out the ARISS website/General Contacts/QSL Cards.
welcome to amateur Satellite!
Hope to hear you on the birds.

I also listened in today. The signal from the ISS is generally strong enough that a rubber duckie will do the trick. I use my Arrow antenna since my HT is already hooked up to it. The uplink frequency is known only to the operator at the school. No sense in tempting others to try the frequency and screw it up for the school kids. Steve AI9IN ----- Original Message -----
