You have to use SatPC32ISS. "SatPC32ISS.Exe (in the following
SatPCISS)  is a special version of SatPC32 for radio amateur operation
via the ISS. The program provides "In-Band" frequency control with
several radios. While "normal" amateur satellites use different bands
for uplink and downlink both frequencies of the ISS are in the 2m
band.  The "normal" SatPC32 switches the radios into satellite mode to
allow full duplex operation (transmitting and receiving at the same
time). Therefore uplink and downlink  must be in different bands."
