<P><FONT face=Tahoma>The Radio Amateurs on the Space Station call CQ on 145.800
MHz FM. If you hear them calling CQ and you are in the British Isles/IARU Region
1 you should go back to them on 145.200 MHz. This means simply switching in your
-600 kHz repeater shift. The ISS uses wide (5 kHz) deviation FM so if your radio
has switchable FM filters try the wider setting.</FONT></P>
