JULY ISS NEWS

Currently there are two spacecraft docked to the International Space Station. The Soyuz TMA-16M is docked to the Poisk module.
The ISS Progress 58 cargo craft is docked to the aft-end of the Zvezda service module.

The International Space Station will see two new spacecraft over six days beginning June 30.
Three orbiting residents (Kelly, Padalka e Kornienko) are preparing for the new arrivals with training on a pair of different rendezvous and approach systems.

Nice video:

Astronaut Reid Wiseman, KF5LKT makes personal contacts with hams ... amateur radio voice contacts with earth-bound radio amateurs, often called "hams".

rumors say that 26 june there is a Packet day ?

is real this notice or ?

I've noticed that the APRS Tracking on the website has been broken for a while (last packet it shows is from 6/6).

Just thought I would let someone know in case you didn't.

73,

sorry for the not good english but is by google translate

PS in the middle in the yellow section "RADIOAMATORI - HAM-RADIO"

you try my freeware article :

"Famous ham-radio & VIPs in the world "

Always breathtakingly beautiful. Brightest object in the sky. Nice pass ISS!
Even if I can't say hi by ham radio I can at least hear that lightning fast silence slide by in a twinkle and a wiggle before tucking back into the vapors.

hi there,

we are musicians/artists and are currently working on a piece called 'calling the cosmos' which is all about connecting with space sonically, using spirit radios, field recordings and found sounds. it is conceptual in many ways but we would love to explore the possibility of arranging an actual contact with ISS at a specific time during a live performance - would anyone have any advice on this or know if it would be possible?

many thanks,
hannah & stephen

Hi All,
Im new to packet here on the ISS. I have UISS setup up with my SignaLink USB with my FT-847, with a m2 2m5wl 17el on 2M. First question is how come when I message people, they usually dont even respond even though I hear my packet being digipeated through? Are they just people using beacons? Also on ARISS.NET, why does it only show 1 packet digipeated through? According to UISS it shows 16 packets digi'd, maybe the SGate dident get it? And any recemmendations for formats for the Packet Messages? What do the -6 mean infront of peoples callsigns?
