Here are some pointers

1. ISS (RS0ISS-3) is on 145.800 down and 145.990 up (+/- doppler)
2. PCSAT2 (external payload on ISS) is on 145.825 (+/- doppler)

You can use this filter in UI-VIEW etc

Server: rotate.aprs.net
Port: 14580
Filter: filter p/VK4/PCSAT/PC2/W3AD/RS0/ISS d/RS0ISS-3/PCSAT2/W3ADO-1
o/ISS*

explanation: show me all stations

starting with VK4 PCSAT PC2 W3AD RS0 or ISS
digipeated via RS0ISS-3 PCSAT2 or W3ADO-1
show objects starting with ISS

The objects are ISS ISS_5 and ISS_10 (ISS now, in 5 minutes and in 10
minutes)

At home I use a linux box running predict and then get that to tune my
D700
via the com port using perl.

I double check against nova for windows.

To see when the last world wide activity for ISS www.ariss.net

To see when the last world wide actvity for PCSAT2
http://www.findu.com/cgi-bin/pcsat2.cgi

As is to be expected both come over at the same time.

Help ?

I had it all automated here - radio, rotator the works - lost interest
