How to listen to the Iss Repeater

[@jcm9273]

Straight to the point and no filler. This is how all KZbin tip videos should be. Much appreciated. Will be trying this on the Baofeng

@@jcm9273 good luck let me know how it goes

Just came across your channel when looking for info on ISS Repeater. Thanks for being so down to earth in terms of your videos. I passed my Foundation in January and Intermediate in March. So much better than those 'Shouty' US Channels!

well done for passing your licence ive signed up with the iss fan club they send emails when the space station are sending pictures to test their radio gear. Its easy to do just put your radio on 145.800 and use a SSTV app and use the mode PD120 and it should decode pictures

[@leslieleonard699]

What does tx stand for again sir? So how do I set up my HT to listen and try 😆 make contact with iss???

[@2j4ez]

@ tx means to transmit normally you put your hand held on vfo a and put in the tx frequency then on vfo b put rx frequency. Tx on a and receive on b

[@hcfirefighter82]

Is there a tone for repeater? (437.800) I’m still fairly new and learning how to hear them

[@2j4ez]

Yes theres a 67HZ tone for TX but if you want to reveice it just input the downlink frequency

Liking that Jez! 👍😉

[@TURBOTED605]

Cheers buddy

[@peterjones6357]

Jez. Can you transmit via the repeater with a cheap Retvis or Boefeng? Cheers

[@2j4ez]

You should be able to but you would need a different antenna like a arrow 2 antenna

[@mevlogs194]

So heres the question! If i input the 437.800 will i automatically hear the ISS? is that correct?

[@2j4ez]

Yes and drop the squelch

THANKS JEZ

[@arthurtwoshedsjackson6266]

Your next task is to make a contact through it

[@jasondownes151]

I thought iss was on 145.800

[@arthurtwoshedsjackson6266]

Yes it is but they also have a repeater on board as well. 145.8 is normally for school contacts and the ISS
