I set up my station outside and have to hold my Arrow. Because of that, I've restricted myself to 5 W and that's usually adequate.

Hi!
Based on what I see at pcsat.aprs.org, the 145.825 APRS digipeater is not operational. I still plan on working the next ISS pass around 0248 UTC, using APRS mesaages to make QSOs..

An International Space Station school contact has been planned with participants at Venta School, Carp, ON, Canada on 30 May. The event is scheduled to begin at approximately 19:01 UTC. It is recommended that you start listening approximately 10 minutes before this time.The duration of the contact is approximately 9 minutes and 30 seconds. The contact will be a telebridge between OA4ISS and IK1SLD. The contact should be audible over Italy and adjacent areas. Interested parties are invited to listen in on the 145.80 MHz downlink. The contact is expected to be conducted in English.
Venta Preparatory School is a small co-ed day and boarding school from Junior Kindergarten to Grade 10, located just outside of Ottawa in Carp, Ontario. We foster and continually enhance an environment where each student can grow and achieve their highest potential.
Participants will ask as many of the following questions as time allows:
How do different cultural backgrounds of the astronauts impact space
station life?
What are the topics of conversation between the different astronauts
given they are from different countries?
What is the common language on board the space station? Is there a common
language that all must speak?
Do you use personal tablets or electronic devices on board - can an
IPhone work in space?
How do you feel both emotionally and physically on the space station?
Are your meals decided for you or do you have a choice - can you bring
favorite items with you from earth?
Do you envision a future space station with hundreds of people on board?
What specific work or research are you doing during your mission on the
space station?
How does the line of authority work on the space station - does the
commanding officer have final say on all decisions?
What are your favorite views of earth?
With fans/equipment running, is it noisy or quiet on board?
What are the temperatures and climate settings like.is it cool and who
controls this?

ABOUT ARISS
Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) is a cooperative venture of international amateur radio societies and the space agencies that support the International Space Station (ISS). In the United States, sponsors are the Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation (AMSAT), the American Radio Relay League (ARRL), and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The primary goal of ARISS is to promote exploration of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) topics by organizing scheduled contacts via amateur radio between crew members aboard the ISS and students in classrooms or informal education venues. With the help of experienced amateur radio volunteers, ISS crews speak directly with large audiences in a variety of public forums. Before and during these radio contacts, students, teachers, parents, and communities learn about space, space technologies, and amateur radio. For more information, see www.ariss.org, www.amsat.org, and www.a rrl.org.

Yep,
It must be in a bad sun angle phase and has reset to digi off. We can see about turning the digi back on. Though we would rather hear of more people using the PSK31 transponder.

For me, there were 2 things to consider. One is that more than 5 W isn't recommended for safety reasons since I'm holding my antenna. The other one is that my IC-910 can't go lower than 5 W.

I'll be hiding out in EL09dm for a few days and as always will bring along portable satellite equipment. Listen for me on daytime SO-50 or FO-29 passes. I'll be down by a river, surrounded by bluffs, so don't expect to find me on any low elevation passes.
