[amsat-bb] ISS Packet back on?

[Patrick STODDARD (WD9EWK/VA7EWK)]

Hi Keith!

This was not one of the Malaysian satellites. Someone got the
ISS packet working again, and based on ariss.net it looked like
it started working yesterday afternoon. I remember seeing that
a replacement packet module wasn't due to go up until October
or November, but the packet system is on. I don't know how long
it will stay operational this time, but it is nice to have it
on again.

73!
