What frequency does Dragon/NASA/SpaceX use to communicate with the ISS?
Anyone know what freq in in use for communication between Dragon/SpaceX/NASA and the ISS? Or ANY other freqs in use by the ISS?
Thanks,

Not sure what you are asking for... Dragon is unmanned, so there are no comm frequencies. Are you talking about air-to-ground communications from ISS? Other than some backup VHF freqs, all are TDRS satellite freqs and unable to be monitored.

I'm talking about air-ground freqs, what you called the "backup VHF" frequencies. I know that most comms are on satellite TDRS freq and unmonitorable.

FWIW, and only if you have an amateur license, the ISS is usually manned by one or more hams and does regular VHF/UHF comms with amateurs down below. Look at Amsat.org for more information.

Here's something interesting. SpaceX 'installed' a UHF system for command and control of spacecraft approaching and departing ISS.

Yes, that's along the same lines as all the other government spacecraft use. No voice though  |

Yesterday's problem may slow that timeline down dramatically unfortunately...
