Trevor M5AKA meddelar via mailinglistan att ISS ny kr med crossbandsrepeatern:
The International Space Station cross-band or U/V FM voice repeater has been switched on.
The downlink is 145.800 FM +/- 3 kHz doppler shift
The uplink is 437.800 FM +/- 10 kHz doppler shift
Please keep in mind that the crew members John and Sergei may be listening and pick up the mic to talk to you.
The ISS repeater can be worked with very simple equipment. To receive it on 145.800 an FM handheld with a 1/4 wave whip is all that s required. On 70cm you need to be able to transmit at least 2 or 3 watts FM into a 1/4 wave whip.
