I think Valery or anyone forgot to disconnect from PMS after to have read messages. PMS is a single user connect.

During 23:15 UTC pass I have received only traffic on the digipeater.

If you have any news about a normal operations on PMS please send us a message using this tools and we will update the PMS Status on this page.

Thank you to PE2JMR Jan, N5VHO Kenneth and VA2VA Mario for the feedback about PMS Packet System Status.
Sure Valery forgot the system with 145.200 MHz UPLINK (Voice Operations). Probably USA stations on www.ariss.net used this uplink to digipeat the frames.
You can try this frequency because in this moment the Crew is sleeping and there isn't way to inform about it.

Hello to All

I am a very young OM (55 years old) and just built (home made) my SAT Station.

I see many OM blocking ISS digipeater during pass by PMS.

Please, can you help me in this activity ?!

I also wish to block ISS digipeater; is this for Award ?????

Hi all, this morning I made my first attempt to reach the PMS and, voilá! I was able to drop a message using my portable setup: a Kenwood TH-D7 with a telescoping whip and a HP Jornada Pocket PC (Truly Handheld Station).

Mail box is now back open again.

Frequency is still 145.825 Simplex.

ISS Packet system is again active after Valery checked TNC. In a pass over USA 27 minutes ago digipeater was ON and several stations passed through as shown on www.ariss.net site.

Just received a message from Miles about his QSO with Valery Korzun at 19:45 UTC this evening.

Check the indicator on the top right of this page to see when Packet system will return active.
