Re: AMSAT-NA's LIVE OSCAR Status Page
Using and entering YOUR pass data for the ISS’ new crossband repeater is VERY useful - especially since it is turned OFF for ARISS events, and when missions approach/leave the ISS.

Re: Operating tips
David,
Yes, I do need to turn the squelch off. I thought it was weird that the Yaseu FT-71 was so quiet with the squelch "off". My baofeng did have the white noise. Somehow I was able to get a good

Re: Operating tips
Arup-
One thing about your recording. Mine always has constant background hiss because my squelch is wide open. When you are working the sats, you should have your squelch wide open.

Re: Operating tips
Off hours is definitely the key. I'm a night owl, so I concentrate on passes from 10pm - 1am. I've been able to make up to six contacts in a pass! During the day, I'm lucky to make one.

Re: Operating tips
Thanks for the reassurance. I tried another working a pass on PO101 earlier today (18:25z) and had the same issue so I was beginning to think it was me. My recording of PO101 sounds similar.

Re: Operating tips
You are doing nothing wrong! Just too many people all at once, and some without proper tone.
Try more “off-peak” hour passes ... More power is NOT the cure!
It will calm down ...

Re: ISS Crossband Repeater Back UP
Got word earlier this afternoon from Houston that a recycling of the radio power took care of the problem.
Soon after that, I heard John, KG4AKV making QSOs and the system sounded good.
