Flight rules require the amateur radios to be turned off for any EVA and
for any Russian vehicle docking/undocking operation. No other events are
specified.

ISS ham radio trio getting ready for space shuttle Atlantis 

http://www.southgatearc.org/news/august2006/ready_for_atlantis.htm 

I've heard the Amateur transmitters onboard ISS are turned off during
Spacewalks does anyone know if they are also turned off during orbital
maneuvers as well ?
