HAM repeater on ISS

A month ago I noted some interesting event on the net, that looks like worth to note.

I.e. on September 2 a cross band FM amateur radio repeater was activated on the International Space Station .

I had heard other HAMs using SO-50. And therefore I have a plan already some time to build a dual band antena and try to “catch these birds”, but not yet realized.

BTW: in above link there you can find info, that it is possible also to get a contact with astronauts too.
