Wanted: VIDEO astronaut McArthur at AMSAT Symposium!!
by Cor 01 Oct '06

01 Oct '06

Hello All, Astronaut McArthur is invited for the Amsat symposium in San Fransisco. http://www.amsat.org/amsat-new/symposium/2006Keynote.php McArthur shall talk about his amateur radio adventures during his mission in the ISS Space Station. http://spaceflight1.nasa.gov/gallery/images/station/crew-12/inflight/ndxpag… McArthur worked 130 DXCC countries, and all states (WAS) of America. http://www.arrl.org/news/stories/2006/06/01/103/?nc=1 Sadly I can not join the Amsat symposium. I wonder if there is someone who can record (good quality) VIDEO + AUDIO during McArthur his speech. After the Amsat symposium I hope someone can send me the video on a CDROM so I can also put the video on my website where everyone can download the video. Keep in mind: McArthur his mission was an unique event for thousands of hams all over the world!!! (keep something from the history saved for the future!!!). In the past we helped McArthur with our NA1SS DXCC campaign. We have encouraged many (also rare) DXCC countries and asked them (via e-mail) to trie McArthur NA1SS. It was a great success, after many hams have sended enthusiast e-mails and were proud of their contact with an astronaut in a Space Station, some hams came from rare DXCC countries (or continents) where noone ever have made a contact with a Space Station before. Look here NA1SS worked DXCC´s: http://www.issfanclub.com/dxcc In case you want to record McArthur on VIDEO + AUDIO please let me know!!! Send an e-mail to: isszarya(a)hotmail.com 73's Cor PD0RKC ISS info: http://www.pd0rkc.com

How to decode the sound of HITSAT FM on MixW2
by Mineo Wakita 01 Oct '06

01 Oct '06

I was successful in the decode the header of HITSAT FM 437.425MHz packet data. These signals were switched on ONLY in the range of Japan. And these 1k2 AFSK (FM 437.425 MHz) be able to decode by modem of IC FX614, becauce NOT AX.25 (not NRZ-NRZI). I was successful in the decode of the header "JR8YJT" of these FM data by using a soundcard program MixW2 (ver2.17). > JR8YJT#!5020000100927205504,305,366,8;7A,34,388,99,2,5,8C,12D 1. Click_right the volume button on your PC. 2. Click the adjustment of Audio_property. 3. Click the audio tab. 4. Click the volume button of the audio record. 5. Check the button of the monaural mixer. 6. Run MixW2. 7. Mode - RTTY 8. Mode - Mode Settings - Check "Inverted, AFC, and Squelch" 9. Mode - Mode Settings - Input "1800" Hz in TX and RX frequency box 10. Mode - Mode Settings - Input "Single filter" in Demodulator box 11. Mode - Mode Settings - Input "1800" in Shift box and Baud rate box 12. Mode - Mode Settings - Select "ASCII 7" 13. Run Sound_Decoder "sndrec32.exe". 14 Playback "60928hit.wav" in the following URL. 15. http://www.ne.jp/asahi/hamradio/je9pel/hitsat03.htm 16. Then the signals are decoded automatically on MixW2 window.
