I should have said receive or monitor their transmissions, but using the word intercept was just a habit from listening to utilities such on shortwave. When we heard something rare we'd call them intercepts. KB7ADL ___ Sent via amsat...@amsat.org. Opinions expressed are those of the author. Not an AMSAT-NA member?

Spacewalks are easy to monitor. Your regular 2m antenna will work. In the UK we get some interference from Air band Communications but can generally get a good part of the conversation.
