More interesting ! pix from inside ISS and crew photo.

Hi all
I asked Richard to send more photos from inside the ISS and photos of the crew.
I think this will be more interesting to ham community.
Nice to have NOAA style photos!!
But seeing faces or ISS instruments are more interesting- IMHO.
My special request is a photo of Richard holding the mike at ISS shack .

I just saw some nice youtube videos from the
SoyuzTMA13 Rocket (Exp.18 Fincke, Garriott, Lonchakov).
On the video you see the Rocket on the train going
to the launch platform.

UIview settings

Gday,

I have setup Packet Engine Pro and UIview with an Icom 7000.

Could someone please advise the correct UIview:

1. steps required to connect to ISS, and,
2. settings to act as a Satgate?

Regards, Grant.

Frequency

So.......I'm confused. Since Richard is doing both voice and SSTV is the radio being used on 144.490 up,and 145.800 down for voice,and using SSTV on 145.800 for simplex up/downlink?

Forgive me I,m one of those guys who run into burning buildings while everybody else is going out.

Voice contacts to ISS

Hi all

I note that Richard Garriott has been received on 145.800 recently. Is he using the 144.490 uplink frequency or is he using 145.800 for uplink as well?

Regards

ISS recordings

If you work ISS and you are looking for a recording, let me know. I plan to record as much audio as I can. I live in SW Michigan, so as long as the ISS is above my horizon when you work them, I should have it.

It's not always the best quality..but I share what I have.

Good luck and 73

Matt, N8MS

p.s. email me at my arrl.net email address (if you don't know what that is, look me up on QRZ.com)
