Hi All,

Sorry if this has been asked many times before however I have just acquired a Big Red Bee APRS TX and GPS in one. I have programmed the paths as ARISS & SGATE.

Tonight the ISS went directly overhead my place and I heard the ISS sending packets. My BRB was TX'ing however I was neber picked up at all. Pass lasted around 10 mins.

Is there another path I should be using specifically for the ISS APRS? The ISS is only what im interested in whilst travelling...
