Doug Wheelock NA1SS NASA Ham Radio video easy to download.

Hello All,

Probably a lot ham radio operators would like to copy/save the -
NA1SS Doug Wheelock Youtube Ham Radio video file direct to the harddisc.
Later you can copy the video file to an DVD disc.
I have found easy Youtube video download software on internet.
Its so easy you do not have to configure things just put the
youtube video link and start to download.
Download Youtube Downloader HD software from this website:
http://www.youtubedownloaderhd.com/download.html
Go to main downloads (choose a link to download).
After download install the software and run the software.

Tracking from ISS to Ground. Ham Radio

Hi all.

Can anyone help with the software that is used in the ISS for their tracking?
I have just heard this: http://www.southgatearc.org/news/november2010/kf5boc_appreciates_ham_rad...

I cannot understand if the narrator is saying SIGMA or ZIGMA or something like that. Its about 10 minutes or so into the video.

Any ideas please as i have searched internet with no luck.
Personally i use WXTRACK by David Taylor (www.satsignal.net).

Thanks

Things are gonna be quiet for a while ?

Col Wheelock leaving is really gonna put a halt to voice contacts I think.

From what I read Cmdr Scott Kelly does't hold a ham call.

I am sure Doug is gonna be certainly missed from the NA1SS station, and appreciate his many hours and many contacts. Looking forward to hearing NA1SS alive again in the future.

The current position of ISS in realtime is way of where it should be.

Is this something that more people experience or is it just i?
Im using IE 9 Beta version.

Tracking location entry

The predict passes no longer works when I try to enter a location on Nov 24, 2010 - it was working before - does anyone know how to enter a location that will be recognized? I don't see any place to do that.
