** An update message regarding the radio package on ISS **
Some short term reconfigurations to the Kenwood radio were attempted
today with limited success. The preset channels that are used for many
of the day to day operations are still inaccessible. The good news is
that a few of the more commonly used configurations were able to be
stored in the radio. One of the modes that was able to be partially
restored was the packet system but the operations will be on 145.825
simplex. General voice communication as well as configurations to
support school contacts were also saved.
A full restore of the radio is still required to return full
functionality of the radio system and that process will require access
to a computer system and certification of the required software. This
request is being worked but will take a significant amount of time to
get all parties involved satisfied before the actual restoration can occur.
In the mean time, enjoy the packet operations when the crew is
unavailable and keep listening just in case one of the ISS crew decide
to give out a "CQ" over your part of the world.
