[amsat-bb] Beacon Rate on ISS

[Emily Clarke <w0eec@xxxxxxxxx>]

I was listening to the ISS today, and I noticed a station that was line of 
site with me was transmitting a beacon every 15 seconds.  This seems very 
excessive to me.

Are there recommended beacon rates when transmitting to the ISS and other 
UI digipeating satellites?

73,

Emily
