Hi Henk,
I regret to say I also had similar experiences using my TS-2000 today at my 
 QTH in South Wales (UK)
This morning was also a problem due to the ISS being very active on the  
same frequency during the pass
and I got rather confused.
Later on this afternoon I monitored and the packet bursts from the  
satellite were quite strong but had no success in decoding them sadly.
I have to add though the signals were quite strong and could be  monitored 
and heard using either a THD-7
handheld or a THD 700 and only an Arrow antenna.
Glad to see that Mike has his usual success together with others reporting  
in to the BBS.
Not yet submitted any report to the project web site but my congratulations 
 to all the team, support and sponsors.  Glad to see your time and  efforts 
rewarded - Thanks for the new additions to the hobby.
