Recored Radio Contacts with the ISS
ARISSat-1 FM Message
I heard ARISSat-1 FM massege over JAPAN (2011-02-10 UTC19:56)
Strong signal.
ISS school contact from the Bühl-Realschule in Dornstadt, Germany
Having some severe trouble regarding the weather during the beginning of the contact let us think the contact may fail. Heavy ice fog was present and it was snowing, so an additional, unwanted attenuation of the downlink signal lead to unreadable downlink signals. Other hams reported that Cady Coleman already answered our calls several times before we could hear her talk. In the end we were very lucky to get all of our 20 questions through. :)
