The medal is awarded for notable scientific \nor industrial achievement in engineering or for conspicuous \nservice rendered to the advancement of science, engineering \nand technology. The citation said that Sweeting was awarded \nthe Medal for \"his visionary leadership, satellite expertise, \nambition and drive, which among other things, brought the \noverheads involved in space exploration, down to earth. Sir \nMartin's work includes establishing the viability of the use \nof small satellites for earth observation, communication and \nnavigation purposes and his founding of a company to design \nand supply small satellites to organisations throughout the \nworld\". G3YJO will be giving the 45th Appleton Lecture, \nentitled Small Satellites - Big Future, on Tuesday 19 \nJanuary at the IET's headquarters in London.\n \n\n[ANS thanks Ray, W2RS, for the above information]\n\n/EX\n\n\nSB SAT @ AMSAT $ANS-347.02\nSatellite Shorts\n\nAMSAT News Service Bulletin 347.02\n  From AMSAT HQ SILVER SPRING, MD.\nDecember 13, 2009\nTo All RADIO AMATEURS\nBID: $ANS-347.02\n\nARISS Activity Reports\n\nThere has been confirmed reports of Packet activity on the ISS.  Monitor for\nit\nIf you can and would like to perform packet ops with the ISS.\n\nSSTV signals are also planned for activity from the MAI-75 experiment.  Most\nSignals will be near Moscow coverage area, however, other coverage areas\ncould \nbe activated as well. 145.800 downlink should be monitored.\n\nISS SSTV Images Available On-Line\n\nCor PD0RKC has archived several ISS SSTV images from the December 10\noperation in the  ARISS SSTV gallery:\nhttp://www.amsat.org/amsat/ariss/SSTV/\n\n[ANS thanks,Tony, VK5ZAI & Ken, N5VHO, for this information]\n\n/EX\n\n\nHudson Valley SatCom Net\n\nStu WA2BSS invites all amateur radio operators to join the next\nHudson Valley SatCom net on Wednesday December 23 at 8PM EST (or\n0100 UTC 12/24). The on-air portion of the meets on the 146.97 \nMt.Beacon Repeater. Hams worldwide can \"tune in\" via EchoLink node\nN2EYH-L. More info: http://www.wr2abb.org\nThis is a special time since the normal net meets every other\nThursday and Conflicts with Christmas Eve.\n\n{Thanks to Stu, WA2BSS, for the above info]\n\nRADIO POLITICS:  IARU SAYS TO GET READY FOR WRC-12\n\nThe next World Radiocommunications Conference takes place in January of \n2012 and ham radio is making ready to face any challenges that it might \nbring to the service.\n\nThe International Amateur Radio Union's Secretary is Rod Stafford, \nW6ROD.  He says that every IARU member society capable of doing so, should \ntake the initiative to be in contact with their own telecommunications \nadministration and let the it know what the Union's position is on those \nagenda items that influence the amateur radio service.\n\nThe most significant of these so far are the implementation of the \nradiolocation service in the range 30 to 300 MHz; the possible allocations \nin the range 3 to 50 MHz to the radiolocation service for oceanographic \nradar applications and the effect of emissions from short-range devices.\n\nAlso likely to be discussed is a ham radio allocation of about 15 kHz in \nparts of the band from 415 to 526.5 kHz.  This, on a secondary basis and \ntaking into account the need to protect existing services.  (Southgate)\n\n[ANS thanks Southgate for the above information]\n\n/EX\n\nSTRAIGHT KET NIGHT ON OSCAR 2010\n\nAMSAT is inviting hams worldwide to participate in Straight Key Night on \nOSCAR 2010.  Taking part in this event is both fun and quite easy. Just \noperate CW through any OSCAR satellite between 0000 and 2400 UTC \non  January 1st 2010, using a straight hand key.  There are no other rules, \nno scoring and no need to send in a log.\n\nIn keeping with the friendly nature of this event, all participants are \nencouraged to nominate someone they worked for \"Best Fist\" of those you \nworked. Please send your nomination to [email protected].  A list of those \nnominated will appear in the Amsat News Service and will also be published \nin the AMSAT Journal.  \n\n[ANS thanks Ray, W2RS for this info and for coordinating  the SKN]\n\n/EX\n\nSB SAT @ AMSAT $ANS-347.03\nOSCAR 11 Notes\n\nAMSAT News Service Bulletin 347.03\n  From AMSAT HQ SILVER SPRING, MD.\nDecember 13, 2009\nTo All RADIO AMATEURS\nBID: $ANS-347.03\n\nOSCAR-11 Makes Another Appearance\n\nClive G3CWV noted that UO-11 switched on again on December 10 after \nabout 15 days of silence. Heard in early December, UO-11 had been\nsilent for over a year. Good signals were received during daylight \npasses for two days.  \n\nClive would be interested in knowing whether anyone heard it, or \nlistened and did not hear it, between 11:25 UTC 11 December and \n08:26 UTC 12 December.\n\nBased on previous observations,  it's probably worth listening for \nit again in 10 to 20 days time, between 22 December and 01 January.\n\n[ANS Thanks Clive, G3CWV, For this information.]\n\n/EX\n\nSB SAT @ AMSAT $ANS-347.04\nOSCAR 11 Notes\n\nAMSAT News Service Bulletin 347.04\n  From AMSAT HQ SILVER SPRING, MD.\nDecember 13, 2009\nTo All RADIO AMATEURS\nBID: $ANS-347.04\n\nAmateur Radio on the International Space Station \n(ARISS) Status Report December 7, 2009\n\n1. Upcoming School Contact\n\nAn Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) \ncontact was scheduled with Scuola Primaria De Gasperi in \nNoicattaro, Bari, Italy on Saturday, December 12 at 09:11 UTC. \nLesson plans have covered amateur radio communications and space \nmissions. Newspapers, radio and television, both local and \nregional, will report on the event.\n\n2. Astronaut Training Status - Simulated Contact Scheduled\n\nA simulated Amateur Radio on the International Space Station \n(ARISS) contact was planned for Tuesday, December 8 at \napproximately 14:45 UTC. The contact took place between Deer \nCreek Elementary School in Bailey, Colorado and astronaut Tracy \nCaldwell, KF5DBF. Audio was available on IRLP (Internet Radio \nLinking Project).    The training session is a terrestrial-\nbased amateur radio contact using ARISS equivalent equipment.\n\n3. Successful ARISS Contact with Utah School \n\nOn Wednesday, December 2, students from Midvalley Elementary \nSchool in Midvale, Utah participated in an Amateur Radio on \nthe International Space Station (ARISS) contact with Jeffrey \nWilliams, KD5TVQ. The school prepared for the contact using \nNASA lesson plan resources and integrated the ARISS activity \ninto the school curriculum at many grade levels. Children \nlearned about amateur radio, electromagnetic waves and the \nISS and even viewed IMAX Space Station video.   Nineteen \nquestions were answered during the nine minute pass. Approximately \n200 students were present for the contact and others \nlistened in from their classrooms.  Dr. David Doty (the school \ndistrict superintendent), school board members and district \ndirectors were also present. Two major Salt Lake City newspapers, \nthe Salt Lake Tribune and the Deseret Morning News as well as \nChannel 4 (ABC) television, Fox 13 and the local community \nnewspaper all covered the event. This was the first ARISS \ncontact for Utah.\n\n4. ARISS-Brazil on Twitter\n\nARISS-Brazil is promoting ARISS events on its new Twitter site. \nIt provides an excellent opportunity to better understand what \nthe ARISS education program is. The site is in Portuguese: \nhttp://twitter.com/arissbrazil\n\nAn ARISS-US member has also been posting ISS amateur radio \nrelated items to a Twitter site.
