"Please Beacon Position" reply received from ISS digipeater

Hello,

I've had success digipeating to RS0ISS using UISS however I was wondering how to obtain an AOS report like what can be found here: http://www.findu.com/cgi-bin/msg.cgi?ISS

I've tried sending my maidenhead coords to ISS via ARISS but it replies with "Please beacon your position". Is there a special formatting or symbols required for the coordinates?

Thanks

VA3AZY/Aarron

EDIT:

Nevermind, I found out you have to put the maidenhead coordinator inside of two square brackets ie [XX##XX]

Tracking Issues (was Help please)

Thank you all for reading my request. For some years I have followed the ISS Fan club and still to this day enjoy the writings of all memebers. But recently installed W-7 Professional 64 bit and ever since when I sign in, I receive a small window upon opening which says and I quote:-
Could not find your Location: ZERO_RESULTS

If you can shed any light on wher or what I have done wrong I would be most appreciative de Gary ZL1KJ

Not able to receive SSTV signal

Hi,
I am not able to receive SSTV Signals at 145.800 MHz. I am using Wouxun KG-UVD1P with rubber ducky and able to receive APRS Packets at 145.825 MHz during ISS passes. I am using MMSSTV on PC and DroidSSTV on Android phone for decoding. I have earlier received SSTV regularly during ARISSat-1 with same setup.
Please let me know if any special setup is required this time.
