Lite information om PcSat:
PCsat is doing fine and will continue in good Sun through New Years Eve. Seeing about 50 users per day and 30 per pass over the USA. Any packet station can copy her, just tune 145.825 and watch (1200 baud normal AX.25 packet).
To transmit though her, just set your unproto to UNPROTO APRS VIA WIDE, go to CONVERSE and type something to somone else you see. This is the same path as APRS users use terrestrially. (RELAY, PCSAT-1 and W3ADO-1 also work)

Sapphire (45) is 10 minutes behind PCsat in the same orbit. Her uplink is 145.945 and very weak downlink is on 437.095 +/- Doppler. Her digi callsign is VIA KE6QMD. ISS is not doing packet these days, but we can hope…
During travels, set your mobile to 145.825. When you hear one PCSAT pass, the next one is exactly 100 minutes later and the NEXT day the same pass is 30 minutes earlier. (And Sapphire is 10 minutes behind it but takes a UHF beam to hear it on 437.095, though it is easy to hit on 145.945..)
