VE7XDT Voice contact with ISS on U/V repeater from Vancouver, Canada at 11.03 UTC
Hi ,
Just talked to Mike from the ISS on the newly configured repeater. I was the only station.. 3.03 AM local time.. We had a nice chat for about 7-8 minutes at least.... Using 4 element yagi on 2M with 25W 9 element yagi for 70CM with a pre-amp. Max elevation was 50 deg.
My feeling is that 5W will not cut it below 20 deg elevation...
