[OZAPRS] information on APRS in Australia.-ISS digi path ?

[Mike Zwingl oe3mzc]

Thank you all for this very valuable information. So you confirm that it
would be sufficient to have two different
profiles prpared in the TinyTrak3: one for HF using GATE, WIDEx,x
and one for VHF/ISS using RELAY,WIDEx,x

Is there a reliable ISS-GATE in VK, that will receive my position from VK6

and VK8 (Perth, Darwin, Alice) ???
because ISS is not flying very high!?
