The ISS cross band repeater is on and working extremely well.
The 06.50utc UK pass was accessible during the full period of visibility however there were few stations and only one contact was made with DL0SP, thank you Mario.
Can I stress the importance of the Doppler correction on the uplink. It was apparent that there were at least two other stations that would have been perfectly readable had this been correct.
Good luck to all.

my first satellite contact tonight via ISS cross band repeater over VK AOS 29 Oct 08 12:21:01
I worked VK1NPW (yes a local - dont laugh) also heard VK5??? and VK7 BBW ???
i agree, DOPPLER correction is VERY important!!! (i learnt and heard first hand tonight, i will do better next time) 5 and 10khz seemed to work well for me. hope to hear you all soon
thanks to all involved.
