ISS Ham common Interfaces

ISS Ham common InterfacesThe problemThe interfaces in the Russian and US segmentare different for both Power and RF and probably other ways.The requirements for safety data packages are also different and usually do not cover all of the ISS. For this reason we are not able to easily move ham equipment from one module to the other as needed. PowerThe Russian modules use 28vDC as their standard power source.The US Segment uses 120VDC as its standard power sourcePower connectors FGB Power panel
