Predicting ISS out that far is more challenging than the other satellites as
the ISS has frequent orbital maneuvers that most of the other amateur
satellites do not. The significant factor affecting the other static amateur
satellites is variations in orbital drag due to solar activity. ISS is

Looks like the satellite entered eclipse about that time. The solar panels are
all that is powering the satellite now.

James,
No ham event scheduled for Aug. 18. There was one on Aug 16 over Japan and the
next one is Aug 25 with Germany via LU8YY in Argentina.
Are you referring to the following educational video downlink posting?

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.

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

The satellite has different names depending on the country providing the news
release as the name has evolved. First it was SuitSat-2 which became ARISSat-1
on the USA side since there was no longer a Suit but the Russians maintained
the variant RadioSkaf-B (radio suit 2). Recently, they
ARISS is the best since it will work in all modes but RS0ISS-4 will work if the
radio on the ISS is in PKT mode.

The ISS did some thruster tests recently. That could account for the
difference. ISS is a dynamic satellite. It has minor and major changes to its
orbit and the predicts are sometime a bit behind the actual until things fall
into a more stable state and get updated. I expect the numbers will be

Not sure about your report source. www.ariss.net seems to be showing a lot of
activity and I don't think there are that many 9600 baud IGATES that would be
capturing that much data. Likely still at 1200 baud. As for the digi ID, it
changes from time to time but if you use the recommended alias
