Hi Les,

As others have posted - 145.825 seems to be the frequency ISS has 'settled on' for packet operations.

www.issfanclub.com is a great source of information for up-todate operations with ISS, including frequency info.

If you have an audio interface between your rig and PC, it would be worth looking at the likes of AGWPE:-

This creates a 'virtual' TNC with your soundcard / audio interface and when the audio levels are set correctly, it is possible to send and receive packet via ISS.

UISS is a nice 'bolt-on' that can be used with AGWPE,

This allows you to enter your grid square , or lat & long (there's also a GPS plug-in if you operate mobile) and send postion/beacon/messages via the APRS protocol.

Best regards
