Re: [sarex] ISS Voice QRM problem

[Joe M Tolbert <joe5674@xxxxxxxx>]

I agree with you... I haven't made a voice or packet contact yet .Still
trying . I have always worked QRP. 
I can only carry an HT on business trips.
Would love to work the ISS with 5 watts . There are a lot of station who
talks before they listen .

Brian and all,
hi from the NW of Spain.
totally agree with you...
I´ve been trying to make a phone QSO with the ISS with my HT for some
years 
with no luck...but is funny just to listen :-( (I like hard stuff 
situations..:-)
We don´t want the guys who already made it..to forget about the ISS,but
is 
true they should let "small experimenters" a chance...
Many of us like QRP or just walking by with our HT...and a QSO with the
ISS 
in such conditions will be very important..even for the astronaut,and
yes..I 
mean a short QSO...because with 5 watss os less there are not many
chances 
to keep it up for more than  2 minutes or so.
Anyway...everybody is free to call when they want...even the "big guns" 
,maybe they are trying it with different antennas or just testing...but
we´d 
appreciate a VERY SHORT QSO to let us do something.

Thanks and enjoy radio..and when if it comes from space ,even more! :-)

Good DX
