[amsat-bb] ISS DIGI

[Stefan Wagener]

Hi Kevin,

I am sorry that you consider the packet on the ISS "a waste of time". Many
of us actually enjoy it a lot and it is a great beacon to verify ISS
signals. It is also a nice challenge since it will require the use of APRS,
ISS tracking, digipeating of signals and quick text responses to make a
contact.

Have a Merry Christmas and a great holiday season,

Stefan, VE4NSA
