Hi Group,
Does anyone here know the ISS QSL card requirements for digipeating through
RS0ISS-4?
Obviously it is possible to get a QSL card from the other amateur radio station
on the ground, with whom you have a 2 way packet QSO in a pass.
Is there any way to get an ISS QSL card itself,
Thanks to everyone for the SO-50 QSOs last night!
The Hood County ARC presentation went well and there were about 15 of our
members outside with me for the contacts, all suitably impressed and
encouraged.

My pet hate is AX.25 1200bps FM [on] satellites...
...But the reason AX.25 1200bps FM is still used
for new satellites is because there's so much
infrastructure, TNC's, PC software etc, already
inplace, it's the easy option.
Actually, there is another very important reason. Link budget.
Hi Bob,
I accept what you are saying about burst mode but it's possible to develop a
BPSK system that does burst mode too.
A BPSK system with Forward Error Correction can offer a 16 dB advantage over
AX.25 1200 FM.
As you say there's loads of FM rigs out there so receiving AX.25 is simple
I'm not understanding the legalities of beaconing

Neither one describes APRS. APRS is a group of stations participating in a

repeater during commute times. Someone that has info
Will SO67 be available for Field Day over the US?

for the ARRL field day weekend.

ISS is just like any other satellite when it is operating in a relay mode such
as the packet digi or voice repeater. Make your standard exchange of
information necessary to confirm a contact.

Hi Bob,
When you reminded us on your APRS website, I came across this paper:

Could you provide us an update on the status ?

Hi!
I am still getting caught up after my quick trip to eastern Arizona,
but I wanted to thank everyone who made QSOs with WD9EWK at the White
Mountain Hamfest in Show Low AZ on Saturday morning, followed by QSOs
at two other locations after the hamfest Saturday afternoon/evening.
It was fun

No, they aren't, at least not here in the states.
Beaconing is defined by Part 97.3(a)(9) as transmissions ...for the purposes

observation of propagation and reception or other related
I've made the request and am working on the pass times now. I expect it will be

If you are digipeating through the ISS then you are using the ISS as a relay
just like any other satellite that you communicate through and that would not
qualify as a contact with the ISS (or satellite).
If you desire a contact with the ISS then you must contact it directly. The

AGREE...It is TOTALLY inappropriate for Rick to post this kind of
information. (potentially libelous also)
Ebay has remedies for the seller.
The Ebay employee that released the information to Rick should be terminated
at a minimum, and maybe charged criminally.

Not that anyone cares if the general public can receive it, or not -
hence why you can get a receive-only feed from APRS-IS servers without a
valid passcode.
Here's the thing, guys - no-one cares
