The crew is still working on the cooling problem, so the radio has been off a lot for EVAs. I believe it's on again now, but don't know what the status was during the pass you mention. In any case, you wouldn't have heard anything because you were on the wrong frequency -- the radio is in packet mode and the downlink for that is 145.825.
ISS Fan Club (http://www.issfanclub.com) is a good place to track status of the ISS radios. -- Dave, W8AAS On Aug 12, 2010, at 1:09 PM, Stuart Balanger wrote: > *Hi all, > I tuned to 145.8MHz. abt. 8:20 to abt 8:50AM this AM's Pass & I didn't > notice any > reduction in Sqelch noise, & was wondering if the work is still > being done > to fix the problems? > I got butten by the "Space Bug" when I was listening to a School > Contact > (Feb. of 2009), > when I was home sick w/ the Flu! > 73,.de,.
