tnx JoAnne, Ron, Paul, et al

here's what I have (or had), from my SatPc32
-----------------------
ISS,145800,145990,FM,FM,NOR,0,0,Packet
ISS,145800,145200,FM,FM,NOR,0,0,Voice Region 1
ISS,145800,144490,FM,FM,NOR,0,0,Voice Region 2/3
ISS,145800,437800,FM,FM,NOR,0,0,Cross band repeater
----------------------------

the first line I actually got from this web page:
http://www.amsatnet.com/iss.html

dunno how I actually followed various links to arrive at that though.
Thus I am unable account for the timeliness or validity in today's terms.

So, anyone, please provide a more appropriate set of lines for my
iteration of SatPc32, svp
