No Activity - 301400CET August
Since the activity reports appears to be temporarily down, I wanted to post a report here. Unfortunately, it's negative. From JN58FO, no packet on 145.825, no voice on 145.800 here in Germany.
This as of 30 August, 1400CET.
The ARISS website reported (as of yesterday morning, 29 Aug) that the packet system is operational.....
I have one more pass that will be good for my position in a couple hours and we'll try again ....

Downlink and uplink for voice contact are still working?
Hi everybody!
I have been trying some contact with ISS since a few days ago but without some results, are the same frequencies still?
Downlink 145.800
Uplink 144.490
Is not necessary a subaudible tone, right?
Thanks!

Cardoughnuts
G'day forum,
We have a facebook page called www.facebook.com/cardoughnuts to raise money for robot legs for people with cerebral palsy.
The general concept of cardoughnuts is a smile, a car and a doughnut in a photo posted on the facebook page above - and "like" the page.
A picture of a doughnut with the ISS in the background or even the earth in the background through the hole in a doughnut would be absolutely awesome.
