Working the Voice Repeaters
The freqs are correct, eh? There is one cross-band split repeater that is U/v and the other is V/u with PL? And the UHF freq on both of these is the same -- 437.800? One repeater the UHF is up and on the other it is down?
Since one does not know the schedule of when things are turned on (is this correct?) then it would seem that one needs to listen on 437.800 before doing anything. If you hear someone there, then you know to use the V/u with PL. If you don't, then switch to the VHF downlink freq (145.800) and listen.

Program 5 SPLIT memory channels for ISS UHF packet!
Hello,
Due the doppler effect the ISS packet frequency on
UHF chance verry fast (much faster compared to VHF!).
If you program 5 split memory channels in your
transceiver (or HT) you can work the ISS packet
the whole pass.
For high elevation passes with ISS at AOS start
with M1 and you can work the ISS UHF packet system
several minutes.
The doppler effect chance verry fast when the ISS comes
close, go to M2 and if the ISS is at maximum -
elevation than go to M3.

M1 437.560Mhz 437.540Mhz
M2 437.555Mhz 437.545Mhz

Telemetry
Greetings to all..
I have been enjoying working the ISS over the last few weeks on both VHF and UHF..
I have started reading up on telemetry over the last few weeks and was curious if there is any "easy" telemetry avail for any of the ham birds? I am assumming all the ISS info is secure through the TDRS? Are there any "filters" I can place in the APRS log-in to view telemetry being RX by others?
Thanks for the help-

Did someone forget to pull the plug.
See a lot of excitement of packet from the ISS back on VHF 145.825. Did someone forget up there to pull the plug today after the school contact. I monitor these frequencies and seems that the reports are accurate of activity. Just saying after all the discussion on switching to UHF til September....

Still doing the ISS Achievement Award?
I was able hit the APRS Digipeater on the ISS last night on UHF 437.550 with my son, and because he was very excited I wanted to send away for QSL card and also the ISS Achievement Award from:
but looking at the processing log, I haven't seen any since 2011. Are you still doing it?

List of International Space Station expeditions
For some of us it might be interesting to see which crew members
are selected for future ISS missions.
