new 2m repeater on space station
a new 2m repeater is now operating on the
international space station 24 x 7
the uplink is on uhf 437.800 and the downlink is on vhf 145.800
no tone burst or ctcss is required
the radio is a kenwood tmd700 operating in remote crossband mode
it just retransmits on vhf what it hears on uhf
so if you are getting through you can hear yourself
on the downlink
