Many Thanks, I guessed there'd be a reason. Shame it's not more efficiently promulgated through the mailing list. I guess I'll look to the ISS FAn Club site for future info.
Again, thank you!

I posted a link on the ISS Fan club site. It basically pointed to my twitter link that indicated that the radio had been powered down for the progress 34 undocking. The amateur radio gear is required to be powered off for any vehicle activity associated with the Russian segment and all EVA events.

Half a dozen or more posts on Ariss status the last couple of days, all with school contact details ad nauseum. No information what-so-ever on anything else. Like why is the digi suddenly off? When will it be on again? Perhaps they're setting up the SSTV?
I have no doubt there is a good reason, so why aren't we being told?
