Don’t forget the keyword here is Repeater.  Repeaters have the  FM capture 
effect.  Strongest into the machine wins momentarily.

There  have been rumors in the past indicating that the ISS was having direct 
contacts  on the 40 meter band.  There is no HF radio equipment on board and  
available yet.  The HF antenna is mounted.  Sometimes WA3NAN will  retransmit 
shuttle  audio.
