Yesterday i have receive two passes from the ISS. The signal was good and sometimes Mr. Simonyi is speaking in english and hungarian. Here is a part of my recording: [url]http://home.twin.at/swl-chmy/Downloads/charlesna1ss.mp3[/url] 73 de Christian

Did any one get a copy of the 03:00z pass on 4-20-07?

I had someone call ISS using our school club call so she could get her first ISS contact, and Charles came back to her (Kelly).

I'm not sure what happened, but I did not get the recording. I'd love a copy for Kelly since this was her first ISS contact.

Thanks for yor help!!

Anyone happen to catch me on voice contact with charles? If you did, can i get a copy? thanks.

Well dont know who we need to get this started but I beleive we should have some T-Shirts and maybe stickers! Think we can do this?? Do we already have T-Shirts? Maybe the funds can go to help support the equipment on ISS??

Kursk State Technical University, Kursk, Russia Tuesday, April 17, 2007 Station RW3WWW in Russia will call RS0ISS at approximately 18:33 UTC. Students will ask as many of the following questions as time allows (Questions have been translated, contact will be in Russian): 1. Question to Fyodor Yurchikhin. This is your second flight to space. How did the Earth change since these two years have passed? Do you see Earth's ecological problems from space? 2. Work in space and on the ground. Does it compare and where is it harder? 3. You are conducting many experiments during the mission. Which are the most interesting for you and do you expect unexpected results? Or is it just another daily routine?4. Radio club has an Elbrus expedition on 2007 schedule. Have you been to the mountains? and what is better, mountains or space? What is your opinion on mountain tourism and mountain climbing?

How long will Simonyi be on ISS? I've been busy and haven't had many opportunities to try to work voice.

Has anyone heard of this? Supposivly a new tm-d700 was sent to florida. Will be going up on the next mission?? Anyone heard anything?

Hello All,

ISS crew often talking with Moscow flight control on 143.625Mhz (FM/N).
Also today (14 April) I heard crew in two passes.
20:29UTC Russian cosmonaut speaking Russian to Moscow flight control.
22:04UTC Space toerist Charles speaking english to Moscow flight control.

Most amateurs (or SWL) in europe can listen direct (via receiver) on 143.625Mhz.

People outside of europe can listen to PA3ANG (Holland) online receiver.
You can adjust online the freq. to 145.800 (FM/N) or 143.625Mhz (FM/N).
Warning!!! Please do not play with it on other times, cause many listen to other freqs!!!

I have an idea for an experiment.
Why dont we try to track the Space Station uplinking a strong signal against it and listening to the passively reflected downlink?
I am sure that some of us could also compute the ISS trajectory and make home brew keplerian elements just examining the doppler effect.

Tonight I was listening to see if NA1SS may pop up and became frustrated with what I was hearing. If NA1SS was on or called a CQ no one would have heard it. All I could hear was 3 or 4 people at a time calling there callsign out over and over and another ham calling NA1SS this is X7XX over and over. I think it is OK to toss your callsign out once in awhile but not over and over and give someone else a chance also for that contact. Out of my three contacts with NA1SS I called my callsign out once and the other two he called CQ. If I was Charles and heard all this crap I would ignore everyone and wait until I got to and area with respectful hams.
