The current configuration of ham equipment on the ISS has the computer and transceiver that are SSTV-capable in the Russian segment of the ISS. A standard amateur radio configuration for everyone on the ISS is under development. See www.ariss.org.

Welcome to some of the coolest stuff in ham radio ... amateur radio in space!
