NASA Computer tampered with?

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/6918490.stm

WTF?? Sounds very bizarre!!

Hope this won't impact on the next mission, crew safety and hope they can get the radio up and running back to spec in the near future.

ISS Fan, The Red Fox

Well found link to ya page from friend of my mine, which into radio, for myself I'm not really radio guy. Like to say it cool to see that you guys can do this. I would like to try it myself, but I find it easy to do it over data line than radio ahh Well any one know what kind computer they are using up there on ISS. I would think a PC or UNIX base box. Sun/Sgi would be my pick, can't leave home with out.

ISS Tracking is off

The position of the ISS as shown on the globe is correct, but the calculations showing the passtime are incorrect.

Daytime sightings

Following another daylight capture last week I have now put all the daytime videos onto one webpage at.... http://mysite.wanadoo-members.co.uk/satcom_transits/daylight.html

The latest runs at real speed , giving a good idea of just how quickly the complex passes through the field of view

Programming Help For 2 Meters?

I'm trying to get all set up for an ISS contact on my own (random contact).
I have the freq's and need to get them programmed right. I have a Yaesu VX-170 and was told that there may or may not be a negative offset of 300Khz.

I also need help getting the radio programmed correctly with the up and down links. The person I talked to said it may take a few memory channels, but that it would work out.

Thanks for anyone's help here!
