guru Ken Ransom N5VHO reports that the ISS' Kenwood D700 radio
is off due to an air purifier running in the Service Module
24/7, and it uses the same power outlet that the Kenwood radio
uses.</tt><br>
<tt>They only power the purifier off for scheduled ham events and
then re-activate right afterwards.</tt><br>
<tt>Ken also advises that Flight Engineer Pettit reports the
Columbus radio should be back up on packet operating on 437.550.</tt></blockquote>
<tt>tl;dr The 145.825 digi is down, however, there is a digi running
on 437.550 now.<br>
</tt><br>
<tt>Can any of the Australian ARISS ground stations change frequency
and check the digi on 437.550MHz is OK?<br>
<br>
I was hoping to do some messaging via ARISS when I'm up in the
flinders ranges this weekend, out of range of everything else.<br>
