Following repairs carried out last year it now looks likely that the original HAMTV unit will be returned to the ISS this spring with potential commissioning by a visiting astronaut during May 2023.

There is an article in CQ-TV due out in March covering the basic of receiving the transmissions and this is a new thread where you can post any questions, comments and status updates.

Quick update from ARISS US on the expected commissioning dates.

Please note that as of now, the NG-19 mission has been delayed to July. And we are working with ESA on accommodation planning in the Columbus module. Therefore, the unit will not be returned to ISS in the Spring. And it will not be set up in May. ARISS now expects the unit to be launched, installed and begin operations later this year.

Also the HDMI converter/pattern generator is not part of this upload. ARISS wanted to get HamTV up and operational soonest and this system, which will take more time to certify, will be on-board later.

As G3VZV has been heard to say "Everything connected to space flight always moves to the right, never to the left!"
