Some short term reconfigurations to the Kenwood radio were attempted today
with limited success. The preset channels that are used for many of the day to
day operations are still inaccessible. The good news is that a few of the more
commonly used configurations were able to be stored in the radio. One of the
modes that was able to be partially restored was the packet system but the
operations will be on 145.825 simplex. General voice communication as well as
configurations to support school contacts were also saved.
A full restore of the radio is still required to return full functionality of
the radio system and that process will require access to a computer system and
certification of the required software. This request is being worked but will
take a significant amount of time to get all parties involved satisfied before
the actual restoration can occur.
In the mean time, enjoy the packet operations when the crew is unavailable and
keep listening just in case one of the ISS crew decide to give out a "CQ" over
your part of the world.
73,
Kenneth - N5VHO
