ISS Repeater

The ISS passed at 8:55am EDT at 49 degrees. My vertical 1/4-wave ground plane antenna in the tree picked it up really well. I copied a handful of callsigns pretty easily:

  • KO4PDI - FL
  • KC4Y - AL
  • K4MMD - FL
  • N5ACR - MD
  • KC4YMT - GA
  • KC3MM - SC
  • K3DMM - PA, Harrisburg

I confirmed hearing K3DMM on the Morning Grind round table (K3IR) a few minutes later that morning.

ISS Repeater

I tuned to the ISS Repeater on 437.8Mhz as it went overhead (according to gpredict). I couldn’t hear anything really, but I saw a signal sweeping in and out (doppler shift) as it would have been crossing over head.
