ANS reports on the activities of a worldwide  group\nof Amateur Radio \noperators who share an active interest in designing, building,  launching\nand communicating \nthrough analog and digital Amateur Radio satellites.\n\nPlease send any amateur satellite news or reports to:\n\[email protected]\n\n   In this edition:\n* Getting Ready for ARISSat-1/RadioSkaf-V Operation\n* Call For Articles - Brief Author's Guide to the AMSAT Journal\n* DX & Rare Grids\n* Reminder: The DARA Matching Gift Challenge\n* Satellite Shorts\n* ARISS Report\n\nSB SAT @ AMSAT $ANS-184.01\nGetting Ready for ARISSat-1/RadioSkaf-V Operation\n\nAMSAT News Service Bulletin 184.01\n  From AMSAT HQ SILVER SPRING, MD.\nJuly 3, 2011\nTo All RADIO AMATEURS\nBID: $ANS-184.01\n\nGetting Ready for ARISSat-1/RadioSkaf-V Operation\n\nHere are some reminders to help you get your station ready for\nARISSat-1/RadioSkaf-V \noperation. Your 2-meter FM radio or HT will work well to receive the FM\nvoice messages \nand SSTV on the\n145.950 MHz downlink.\n\nYou will need a SSB-capable receiver to copy the BPSK telemetry beacon, the\nCW beacons, \nand the linear transponder passband.\n\nRead about the details ...\n\n145.950 MHz FM Downlink:\n------------------------\nFM transmissions will cycle between a voice ID as RS01S, select tele- metry\nvalues, 24 international \ngreeting messages in 15 languages and SSTV images. One of the messages will\nbe a conversation \nbetween Yuri Gagarin and ground control.\n\n435 MHz - 145 MHz Linear Transponder:\n-------------------------------------\nThe linear transponder will operate in Mode U/V (70 cm Up, 2m Down).\nIt is an 16 KHz wide inverting passband and the convention will be to TX LSB\non the 435 MHz \nuplink and RX USB on the 145 MHz downlink. This mode is designed to work\nwith low power \ntransmitters and omni antenna.\n\n145.919 MHz/145.939 MHz CW Beacon:\n----------------------------------\nThe CW transmissions will be callsign ID RS01S, select telemetry, and\ncallsigns of people actively \ninvolved with the ARISS program.\n\n145.920 MHz SSB BPSK-1000 Telemetry:\n------------------------------------\nThe BPSK transmissions will feature a new 1kBPSK protocol developed by Phil\nKarn, KA9Q to be \nreadable in low signal level conditions. \nThe BPSK data will transmit satellite telemetry.\n \nThe ARISSat-1/RadioSkaf-V BPSK-1000 downlink is transmitted in SSB mode on\n145.920 MHz. When \nthe CW2 beacon on 145.919 MHz is active this indicates that the BPSK-1000\nformat is being transmitted. \nIf the CW1 beacon on 145.939 MHz is active this indicates the backup of\nBPSK-400 format is being transmitted.\n\nTransmitting at 100 mW, both BPSK rates include Forward Error Correction\n(FEC) and it is expected that\n modest quarter-wave antennas with low-loss coaxial cable will provide\nsufficient signal strength for \ndecoding and display by the ARISSatTLM software.\n\nDownload the Windows ARISSatTLM free ground station soundcard demodulator\nand display software: \nhttp://www.arissattlm.org/download/ARISSatTLM_050_Setup.exe\n\nDownload the Mac ARISSatTLM software:\nhttp://www.arissattlm.org/download/ARISSATTLM.zip\n\nThe ARISSatTLM software user guide is available:\nhttp://tinyurl.com/42uhtyf (amsat.org)\n\nGet your color ARISSat-1/RadioSkaf-V Frequency Guide:\nhttp://tinyurl.com/4t497t2 (amsat.org)\n\nARISSat-1/RadioSkaf-V Presentation Slides (~1MB) http://tinyurl.com/4n4pzkm\n(amsat.org)\n\n[ANS thanks the ARISSat-1/RadioSkaf-V Team for the above information]\n\n/EX\n\n\nSB SAT @ AMSAT $ANS-184.02\nCall For Articles - Brief Author's Guide to the AMSAT Journal\n\nAMSAT News Service Bulletin 184.02\n  From AMSAT HQ SILVER SPRING, MD.\nJuly 3, 2011\nTo All RADIO AMATEURS\nBID: $ANS-184.02\n\nCall For Articles - Brief Author's Guide to the AMSAT Journal\n\nYou are invited to share your amateur radio in space ideas and experiences\nwith fellow \nsatellite operators.  \nThe AMSAT Journal, a bi-monthly publication of AMSAT-North America, brings\nyou  the\n latest information  in satellite mission planning, satellite- related\nhardware design and\n construction, satellite-related\n sof- tware design and implementation, and amateur radio earth station\nconstruction.\n\nThere are plenty of opportunities for you to share your ideas and experience\nacross all \nlevels.  \nDid you homebrew a successful antenna?  Which setup did you use for your\nfirst satellite\ncon- tacts?  A brief write-up and photos are appreciated by everyone!\n\n\nDo you have ideas about future amateur radio space missions?  Can you\ndescribe unique \naspects of a particular orbit and the equip- ment needed to make it work?\nSimply type out \nyour ideas on your computer and send them in.  Let the AMSAT Journal\neditorial team do the\nclean up and formatting for you.\n\nIts easy to send your article to the AMSAT Journal e-mail box via\[email protected]. \n There is no need to do any special formatting on your submission because\nthe final layout \nformat is driven by the magazine's typesetting software.  All you need to\ninclude is:\n\n+ Your text in MS-Word or plain text format Graphics saved in separate \n+ files (jpg, gif, tiff)\n\n(Actually, an MS-Word file with embedded graphics is the most diffi- cult\nformat to typeset.)\n\nIf you have any questions, or need some help feel free to contact the\neditors at the AMSAT\n Journal at [email protected].  One of us will get back to you as soon as we\ncan.\n\nEd Long, WA4SWJ Editor-in-Chief\nTim Lilley, N3TL Assistant Editor\nBill Hook, W3QBC Assistant Editor\n\n[ANS thanks the AMSAT Journal for the above information]\n\n/EX\n\n\nSB SAT @ AMSAT $ANS-184.03\nDX & Rare Grids\n\nAMSAT News Service Bulletin 184.03\n  From AMSAT HQ SILVER SPRING, MD.\nJuly 3, 2011\nTo All RADIO AMATEURS\nBID: $ANS-184.03\n\n+ Listen for Eric W4OTN, Amanda KI4IWS, Robin WA4WPD, Bill KG4CXY\n  on July 29 to August 1 as they activate N4I from Core Banks Barrier\n  Island (IOTA NA-067, USi NC033S, WLOTA 0596), Pamlico County, North\n  Carolina.

Japanese Contact Successful\n\nOn Tuesday, June 21, an Amateur Radio on the International Space Station\n(ARISS) contact was \nheld between Nankan 4th Elementary School in Tamanagun, Kumamoto,  Japan and\non-orbit \nastronaut Satoshi Furukawa, KE5DAW. There was a delay in making contact, but\nonce established, \nthe students got in nine questions. This unique activity supplemented lesson\nplans about amateur \nradio technology and the International Space\n Station mission.   An audience of approximately 100 attended the event\nwhich was covered \nby 5 newspapers and 5 television stations, including NHK (Japan Broadcasting\nCorporation).\n\n2. ARISS International Team Teleconference Held \n\nThe monthly ARISS International Team meeting was held on Tuesday, June 21.\nTopics covered\n included the upcoming ARISS Face to Face meeting in October and a status on\nthe ARISSat-1 \nsatellite, designated KEDR in Russia.  Minutes have been\nposted: https://www.rac.ca/ariss/arisstel2011-06-21.htm\n\n3. News of U.S. ARISS Proposal Process Distributed\n\nThe NASA EXPRESS message sent on June 16 included an item on ARISS contact\nopportunities  \nfor U.S. schools using the new proposal process. Also made aware of  these\nopportunities were\nother U.S. education organizations such as Solar System Ambassadors, Space\nGrant  Community,\n INSPIRE, WISH, Endeavor Fellows and the Museum Alliance.\n\n4. Astronaut Training Status \n\nDon Pettit, KD5MDT, and André Kuipers, PI9ISS, were given an ARISS preflight\nsession on June 22.  \nThe two astronauts hope to participate in ARISS contacts during their flight\nwith Expedition\n30 which will launch in November 2011.\n\n5. ARISS Items in ARRL Letter \n\nThe American Radio Relay League (ARRL) ran two ARISS items in its June 23\nARRL Letter.  \nThe first story is about the astronauts who recently passed their amateur\nradio Technician  exams \nand were issued call signs.
