My System: Sky UK. FTA analogue & digital satellite from 6 fixed dishes (5E/7E/9E/10E/13E/16E/ 19E/23E/28E) Pace MSS100, Echostar IP3000VA, Technomate TM-1000D, Dreambox 7020S

Talking Space Station visible in daylight

From heavens-above.com:


See the ISS in daylight!
Some observers have reported that as the ISS approaches completion, it can now be seen in daylight. It is unlikely to be visible when the Sun is high, but when the Sun is low in the sky, you may well be able to see a high pass of the ISS.

Sign up for the site is free, and you can get all sorts of useful info off it for satellite spotting including all the sat pass info you could desire.

My System: Triax 1.1m and Orbital 80cm Motorised Dishes. Various fixed Dishes. Eclectic selection of Digital and Analogue Receivers. Complex switching and distribution that SWMBO cannot fathom. Nor me.

Have they got the toilets working again, or do they have to nip outside .............. ???

There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness"
