Information on the status of the ISS

All information is valuable. But if the crew does not come in active mode voice, please do not tell mode voice. This is not a rule but a courtesy to others. If the crew is not active in the voice mode, enter only in digital mode if it is active or not. Only report in a voice that you are sure that the crew really only active in voice mode. Only enter report in Voice, SSTV or Repeater if you are sure the crew is really active in one way

Aldo too, I have more recorder voice contacts of U.S.A. STATIONS. I can send all the record. 22:35 UTC (SEPT. 3 2010).

What does the beacon transmit and is it currently operational?

hi all,
We have a ground station in our college in chennai ,India. We would like to receive the telemetry from ISS. Do ISS zarya has a downlink at 435 mhz band .. if so please give me the details about that..

Did anyone make a recording of the 22:30, Sept. 5th, pass.

My call is KC6DKX.

I did manage to have more than a callsign exchange, as Col Wheelock was doing more then acknowledgeing call signs.

Thanks,

Roger KC6DKX

Have several passes over western USA but no way to convert to mp3.

I am retired KSC C&T/NAV/SSPF Systems Eng'r and had been trying to make an ISS voice contact for a number of years from my crummy Cape Canaveral Condo QTH w/no success.

Have moved up here to N. GA at 1550' (Grid EM74sq) and have made a few APRS and Repeater contacts with ground stations, but never a V/V Contact with ISS - a particular goal/dream for me.

Can someone tell me the exp number just had a contact with doug wheelcock on sept 1 want to address correcty on enevope im sending to arrl thanks 73 ke3lb

Well I have been trying for a while to get a contact with the ISS, and today I finally did.

I managed to record it as well but forgot to turn up the mic level so you have to blast the sound to hear it, but its clear as day.

I have been trying to develop a fixed elevation antenna on a cheap radio shack rotor, my 1st attempt was a failure, but today I mounted an Elk antenna on a PVC Mast set at 17 Degree's and it works AWESOME !!!
