Amateurs and others around the world may listen in on contacts between
amateurs operating in schools and allowing students to interact with

Would your group like to have an ARISS contact? Here are some upcoming
deadlines for be aware of:
For U.S. contacts, proposals are due by 6-Sept. Contacts would be in the

The crossband repeater continues to be active (145.990 MHz up {PL 67} &
437.800 MHz down). If any crewmember is so inclined, all they have to do is
pick up the microphone, raise the volume up, and talk on the crossband
repeater. So give a listen, you just never know.

The packet system is also active (145.825 MHz up & down).

The HamTV system (2395 MHz down), and the SSTV system (145.800 MHz down)
are both currently STOWED and not in operation.

As always, if there is an EVA, a docking, or an undocking; the ARISS radios
are turned off as part of the safety protocol.

Note, all times are approximate. It is recommended that you do your own
orbital prediction or start listening about 10 minutes before the listed
time.
