Hi Scott, I'm not hearing anything on 145.800 at this time (Saturday evening, 19:35 EDT), but there is something on 145.807500 (+/- 150 Hz). I'll keep listening to see if this situation changes and post here with any results I get. 73 Dave (W4DBT) -----Original Message----- From: Scott Schmautz <wb2uzr(a)gmail.com> To: amsat-florida <amsat-florida(a)amsat.org> Sent: Sat, Jul 31, 2010 2:45 pm Subject: [amsat-florida] Packet on ISS Downlink 145.800? Hi All: Anyone hearing packet on the ISS voice downlink frequency 145.800? Been hearing it here for quite a while, curious if anyone else is hearing it, and can maybe decode some and get a callsign? I don't think it's real local, but it's definitely there in Melbourne.

I want to thank W0SAT, WA4NVM, W4DBT, W5DID, W0RDE for their efforts in contacting me during my SO-50 summer camp demo here in Winter Springs, FL this morning on the 14:01 UTC pass. Also, any other stations that might have been trying for us. You all made the presentation a great success. Let me know if I can ever reciprocate the favor. 73s, Dave, AA4KN

Fellow hams, I have a sat demo scheduled here in Orlando for tomorrow morning targeting the 14:01 UTC (10:01 ET) pass of SO-50. I'd appreciate making a few contacts to show how much fun the satellite part of our hobby can be. I don't want to dominant the pass, but a few contacts would be great if anyone can help. 73s, Dave, AA4KN

ISS Crew Active

There has been good voice activity from the ISS for a week or so now. The passes haven't been great for us here in Florida, but just heard crew activity at around 1350 local. Looks like they have been active daily. The APRS has been on if they aren't on voice. Scott/WB2UZR West Melbourne
