ARISS ISS-Ham SSTV / VOX Box
The ARISS Hardware Manager Lou McFadin (W5DID) was assigned the task of building an Audio interface box for the SpaceCam1 project. The Audio interface box will allow the audio from a standard Laptop PC to be plugged into the existing Amateur Radio station on ISS. SpaceCam1 will then be able to control the ISS Ericsson or the Kenwood D700 Amateur Radio transceiver's radio currently on board ISS and the future transceivers planed as follow on projects. The VOX box arrived on ISS in October 2006.
