In my previous email example, it would be very quick to make contacts using UISS:

For the CQing station N9KT it would be three clicks in UISS: 1. To send the CQ. 2. To click on "W9IMS" in the MHeard list. 3. To send the QSL.

For the S&P station W9IMS it would be two clicks in UISS: 1. To click on "N9KT" in the MHeard list. 2. To send "N9KT :EN11".

I'm about to try and make contacts with other hams through the ISS Packet station.

I watched the traffic and there's all kinds of stuff being sent.

I was thinking that a clean and short contact would be something like this: N9KT>CQ,ARISS::CQ de N9KT - EM69 W9IMS>CQ,ARISS::N9KT :W9IMS - EN11 N9KT>CQ,ARISS::W9IMS :QSL and 73 via ISS

Or for the very shortest: N9KT>CQ,ARISS::EM69 W9IMS>CQ,ARISS::N9KT :EN11 N9KT>CQ,ARISS::W9IMS :QSL

Any thoughts?
