The next proposal window for U.S. schools and educational organizations to
host an Amateur Radio contact with a crew member on board the ISS opens
October 7, 2024 for contacts to be scheduled for July 1, 2025 – December
31, 2025. This proposal window is due to ARISS by November 17, 2024 at
11:59 PM Pacific Time (Nov. 18, 2024, 07:59 UTC). Proposal information and
more details such as expectations, proposal guidelines and the proposal
form can be found at www.ariss.org.
The crossband repeater continues to be ACTIVE (145.990 MHz up {PL 67} &
437.800 MHz down). If any crewmember is so inclined, all they have to do is
pick up the microphone, raise the volume up, and talk on the crossband
repeater. So give a listen, you just never know.
The packet system is also ACTIVE (145.825 MHz up & down). Ham TV and SSTV
systems are currently STOWED.
As always, if there is an EVA, a docking, or an undocking; the ARISS radios
are turned off as part of the safety protocol.
Note, all times are approximate. It is recommended that you do your own
orbital prediction or start listening about 10 minutes before the listed
time.
