Same "Hams" Making contact every orbit

What's so great about making contact with the ISS on every orbit and trying to make conversation with the crew, all you are

doing is blocking others who have not worked the ISS. I have always made one contact per DX station, got it on tape, sent

for the card and then listened to give others a chance for the contact also. I have done the same with my ISS contacts over

the years. These same people calling every orbit are killing the "Spirit" of ham radio and turning it into CB radio.

How do I save an audio recording from this site?

I didn't have my recorder on at the time I contacted the ISS, but this site has a recording of it... but it's embedded in the site, and I dont know how to save it. I wondered if I could get the audio file from this November 6th - where the commander acknowledged my callsign. Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Decoding APRS beacons

I cannot decode ISS APRS beacons in UIView on 145.825 -- yet I have no difficulty decoding local traffic on 144.390 using the same setup. Anyone experienced this problem?

ISS Mobile QSO

I had a great mobile QSO with Col Wheelock while operating mobile from my truck using a Yaesu FT-857 and a mag mount antenna driving from Seattle to Portland.

I apologize for the scratchy audio . . . this was an on-the-fly recording. Col Wheelock briefly touches on ROBONAUT and the delay of Discovery.

Other recorded callsigns: KA7O • Tate • Casper, WY

73!
