Hi!

While I was working on my computers at home this evening, I was testing a streaming audio app on my iPod. I stumbled across the Australian Broadcasting Corporation's Radio National service, and dropped into the middle of a program called Top of the Pods. The program that was in progress sounded like it was talking about something related to ham radio - and it was! It was a program about an Australian YL ham who connected to the Mir packet mailbox about 20 years ago, including through the time of the disintegration of the USSR in late 1991.

Hello to everyone on this forum!

Firstly it looks like a great community here so I'm confident one of you will be able to help me out somewhere.
A little about myself- I'm 21 years of age from Surrey in the UK and have a blog over at http://www.joshingtalk.com
I've recently done a high altitude balloon project and have got some astonishing results (see website) and enjoy doing these things for the benefit of fun within communities.

Can anyone tell me how long astronauts spend on the ISS on each tour?

Which one of you stole the ISS control codes and when are you going to upload it?

During the last few days while I was trying UHF Packet on the international space station .I noticed several time a sudden dip in the signal strength and loss in connection with packet system. ISS elevation was reasonable and the signal strength on the VHF packet system was strong!
I’m thinking of 3 cases:
1- The patch antennas position!
(The patch antennas are fixed on the Meteorite Debris Panels (MDP) protecting the hull of Columbus. On the port cone of the module, where it attaches to the ISS )

2- Radio and power used!
3- Doppler Effect!

Is there anyway to get the comments with the rss feed. I can get the original post, but not any of the comments to that post.
