ISS voice contacts are NOT simplex. They are just not cross-band. You
have a different uplink and downlink frequency but within the same band
similar to a conventional repeater.
You should be able to set both the software and the radio to the correct
frequencies.

would be a better choice.

Given all that, your az/el setup with decent yagis (preferably x-yagis with

is up to the FCC. It is the replacement for the 746 Pro and 910H, hopefully
