[Fwd: ISS configuration]

Tue May 3 10:10:01 CDT 2016

Terry - does the ISS have separate uplink and downlink VHF antennas? Only one UK school link has run into difficulties AFAIK and astronaut Tim Peake's repeated calls were clearly audible to me throughout. However, I believe there had been a late change of uplink frequency and this may have caused confusion at the school. Otherwise, UK school downlinks have been very clear even with a simple HT antenna on the ground.
