Hi

Heavens above site is down (?)

I've just saw ISS passing (Porto, Portugal)
and I want to confirm it was it. How can I do that?
Only the future passes are show here...

Hello to all,

Would the gentleman (or anyone else) that had the audio recording of me with my old call sign of K5ATL with ISS please resend the email of the audio clip to me? The contact was on March 21, 2006. It would be greatly appreciated. My email is .

Tnx and all the best,

Hello everyone.
Like many people, I do not know the possibility of using motorized antennas in elevation.
Able to use only antennas with vertical polarization must now update my system antennas.
At the time of MIR I used with satisfaction antenna type DISCONE, but the fact of working with a large band penalizes lot yield and introduces unwanted disturbances.
I replaced the DISCONA with a V2000 I found that the signals for high angles of reception have deteriorated.
With its faults the DISCONE was better for this type of use.
Now I do not have any antenna, as well as for HF, and I think about how to implement the part for the V / UHF.

Hi Folks,
Let me know if we have SSTV in ISS as part of ARISS
wishing U all the best

The amateur radio system has been powered down in support of safety regulations related to the docking of the soyuz vehicle bringing the Expedition 17 prime crew to the ISS.

Hello everybody! I've built my own paper model ISS!
You can see it on my blog ! http://spacepaper.over-blog.com/
Leave your comments! See you later! Grégoire

The title sums up the question

I went to their homepage http://garc.gsfc.nasa.gov/

and check the faqs and frequencies used to retransmit, but it doesnt look like it's been updated in a while. it says " The next Space Shuttle mission is planned to be STS-120, Discovery. Launch is targeted for October 23, 2007." ---- LOL

so just curious if they still do retansmissions or not anymore.

thanks ---
