Just for fun, I decided to see how well I could hear the ISS with my HT. 
I hooked up a 4 element hand held yagi and the signal was so strong that 
it didn't seem to matter where I pointed the antenna, full scale on the 
meter. So I then tried putting the regular "rubber duck" antenna on and 
still got full scale meter readings no matter how I oriented the 
antenna. Very surprising indeed!
