ISS Amateur Radio Shack via Google Maps

Posted on March 30, 2018March 31, 2018 by Simone

ISS walk around via Google Maps

Today, while I was playing with google map, i ended up inside the International Space Station.
I immediately realized thay all the ISS modules have been made available in 360° view, so I decided to look for the ISS amateur radio transceiver, from where astronauts use to talk to schools via the ARISS program.

After some minutes, I spotted the location of the ISS radio shack, that is composed simply by a Kenwood TM- D700A transceiver, and is located in the Zvezda Module of the ISS.

Try yourself

If you want to virtually walk inside the ISS, just follow the link to the Google Maps  ISS Radio Schack

The Kenwood TM-D700A is a dual bander that allows APRS, GPS and SSTV transmission with 50W RF Output

The ISS configuration map will help you on orientation through the labyrinth

    Simone,
    I live in Australia and have my amateur radio licence VK2DCC.
    I would like to listen to AirTraffic Control, Police, Ambulance,etc through an app on smartphone.
    I cannot find on the web any apps for Italy.
    Do you know of any apps or website i can go to?
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Regards,
    Dino Calvisi
