What was        JP> your experience sending packet to the ISS? Do they        JP> have a BBS or something?              So for local packet work I was using Outpost which was the easiest path to       take - it sets up a pretty basic terminal / tnc that works in conjunction with       direwolf via AGWPE if I remember correctly. Where I live packet is really       tough as the closest BBS is just on the edge of what I can reach with my       current configuration.              For the ISS I started playing around with UISS which helps manage the very       tight constraints of a pass. But I've also been able to decode packets on just       my HT's build in APRS functionality. I also managed to use an Android app       called APRS droid along with a cheap Yaesu HT! Even managed to reach the       station with the rubber duck!              -+- QuikEdit 2.41R+              --- Maximus/2 3.01        * Origin: Sursum Corda!
