Gang:
I was trying to leave the D-700 on this morning for the passes of the ISS and seeing if I could make it in as VE3FAL-8...it received ok, but I did not show up on the map. What settings would I need to adjust the rig to for the ISS in the Unproto, digi path etc???I have it set now for regular APRS..
I am trying to get these setting into the Program 1-5 for both Oscar32 and ISS when on the road.
I did find some stuff on the usnavy site but some dates and material seem a bit out of time..

Sounds like you have the freq set right, only other thing should be to change your aprs path from like, WIDE2-2, to ARISS

Yes, becaues to my surprise, the ID function is not enabled on ISS, so when the ISS digipeats the packet, you see "WIDE2-1" (you wont see any "*" to prove it was digipeated by ISS). It could have been digipeated by anyone else's radio that is accidentally on the wrong uplink and downlink.
SO it is best to use the "ARISS" path, so that you get proof if it was digipeated as "RS0ISS*" or whatever...
