Thanks Emanuele,
The last part of your message is actually the most important part. Watching the ISS astronauts talking to schools and having a video feed is great. However, looking at schedules and available downlinks for NA and or Europe, they are limited and might not really much worth of an investment for most ham operators. On the other hand having a more or less constant feed like the APRS would be outstanding. In addition, it would be even better to have the system connected to an outside pointing camera to get constant feeds on the earth while the ISS is flying overhead. That's a huge incentive, at least for me. Hope that is in the plans somehow.
Stefan, VE4NSA

Hi Dave, this will be normally used on the occasion of ARISS school contacts. However ARISS intention is to have the video on for long periods with still or live video material. Emanuele I0ELE

I would like to know how often this is even going to be in operation before I make myself crazy trying to piece something together.
