FWIW, He thinks he'll be going back up around 2019 and he told me he's going to try and beat the record for QSOs by from the ISS. He said he'll be using the radio "until sparks fly off of it." I met him twice this year and that's what he told me each time.

However I am not looking for evidence of any voice QSO with the ISS but evidence/references to QSOs *in between* the Russian SSTV transmissions. It's for a video I'm working on for my YouTube channel. I know they have happened, I just need examples that demonstrate that for the video.

Thanks for your response,

When Commander Wheatlock was up there, I had many! I just programmed the DL and UL freqs in my vehicle and he would show up on channel calling CQ randomly. Haven’t heard much of that since then. Probably worked him at least 5 times randomly. Still listening.

I know the Cosmonauts sometimes make unscheduled voice QSOs between ISS SSTV transmissions but I can't remember exactly where I have read or heard that.

Especially nice would be audio and/or video recordings with both the SSTV and voice QSO intact in the recording.

Twitter, posts, blogs, articles etc are also very helpful.

Thanks,

Heh, Yup. I have that same recording from April 19th 2015 at 1033 (I think Eastern US Time). I was setup for TX and transmitted on 144.49 but obviously he didn't respond to me. I don't think he intended to have a QSO with anyone.

Ideally I am looking for references to voice QSOs between SSTV transmissions from anytime before this SSTV event in April 2015.

No QSOs were made here, but they were calling:
