[amsat-bb] ISS Antenna

["Frank H. Bauer" <ka3hdo@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Chris,

Yes, that is indeed a very nice screen shot of the ISS Ham radio antenna 
system.  Actually it is more than just a VHF antenna.  It is an antenna 
system supports VHF, UHF, L-Band, S-Band, GPS receive, and can be used for 
reception of the Russian EVA video system (2 GHz).  We have 4 around the 
periphery of the Service module.  They are all identical except that one 
has an HF antenna replacing the VHF/UHF whip.
