The AMSAT-UK page at http://amsat-uk.org/2013/05/12/hamtv-from-the-iss/ provides the links, they are:

More information at http://www.amsat.it/Amsat-Italia_HamTV_brochure.pdf 
and http://www.amsat.it/Amsat-Italia_HamTV.pdf 

The HamTV.pdf gives the link budget, looks like there's 7dB of coax/connector losses to overcome between the ISS transmitter and the antenna. That document indicates a 90cm dish should be sufficient.

I believe that it's going up on ATV 4 which is currently slated for June 5.

Trevor...I have been so busy with our family moving to our new farm and ferrying a bunch of airplanes to Bangladesh and India...that I have not read a lot on this.  Do you have a link on the topic?

I am about to get both a VU and SL2 license and will put both active on at least AO7 and VU 52...

thanks in advance. Robert G. Oler WB5MZO
