I would not expect too much activity from the ISS crew for Field Day. Just before field day, the U.S. crew member will change and the new crew member will have most of his time getting up to speed on the primary systems and operations on the ISS.
I have been trying to get the packet system back online for use during Field Day and have had some limited success. Should everything work out (difficult to predict at this point due to all the activity associated with the shuttle work going on) I would plan for packet to be active on 145.825 simplex.
Still, anything is possible.

Any info on what activity, if any, is likely from the ISS over FD? One of the local FD committees was wondering, and I had to give them my patented "deer in the headlights" reply.
