Hello forum room,

Just wanted to get some advise on the uplink for ISS for voice. what i have programmed is 145.800 for the downlink which I know is correct cause i hear bill everytime he is over. Just curious about the uplink, i have 144.490 but have yet to make a contact, is there a PL on this frequency, if not i will just keep trying with what i have. Thanks in advance for any replies......

International Space Station Expedition 12 ARISS school contacts have been
planned with students at Circolo Didattico Statale (G.Settanni), Rutigliano,
Italy and Sir James Lougheed Elementary School, Calgary, Alberta, Canada on
Tuesday, 21 March 2006. The events are scheduled to begin at approximately
at 13:54 and 18:17 UTC respectively.

The first contact will be direct between stations NA1SS and IZ7EVR. The second contact will also be direct between stations NA1SS and VE6AFO. The Italy contact should be audible to anyone in Europe and the Calgary contact should be audible to anyone in Western and central Canada plus portions of the northern USA. Interested parties are invited to listen in on the 145.80 MHz downlink.
