ISS Packet System will be temporarily QSY'ed
The ARISS team has agreed to a limited test of the ISS packet system as a
dual-hop constellation with PCsat. This means that the ISS packet system will be temporarily QSY'ed to the 145.825 MHz simplex frequency of the PCsat digipeater so that the two satellites can operate together.
QSO WITH CMDR. KORZUN
On the 1711 EDT pass I had a very good conversation with Cmdr . Korzun and he is looking forward to the arrival of the STS-112. He said it will keep them very busy with the 3 EVAs' that are planned. He was making many contacts in the US and also Canada. Arthur N1ORC
