Hi to all.
A group of Cuban ham are excited about listening what he thinks was a
ISS pass and locals are asking to me to write an article for our
national web site; the news spread on 2m local repeater during the pass
and a few hams managed to listen a few seconds after the LOS, that rise
a lot of comments and interest...
The pass was on October 31 around 1 to 2 pm in CO land (CDT) on 145.800,
does any has any details of that? or better a recording of the pass?
My pass predictions shows a good pass over Cuba but later on that day,
not at this time... I was on a work meeting and don't heard it.
Thanks in advance...

An International Space Station school contact has been planned with participants at Liceo Scientifico 'Francesco Cecioni", Livorno, Italy and Liceo Artistico Melotti, Lomazzo, Italy on 3 Nov. The event is scheduled to begin at approximately 09:27 UTC. The duration of the contact is approximately 9 minutes and 30 seconds. The contact will be direct between IR0ISS and IQ5LI. The contact should be audible over Italy and adjacent areas. Interested parties are invited to listen in on the 145.80 MHz downlink. The contact is expected to be conducted in Italian.
The liceo scientifico "Francesco Cecioni" in Livorno is a high school with about 1200 students. The school was born in 1972 as a subsidiary but in 1974 already got its own identity for the experimental and innovative methods introduced as response to the demanding instruction innovation. Since 2010 the school has four specializations: scientific, linguistic, artistic and humanistic; the half of the students follow the scientific specialization. From the '80s, Liceo Cecioni sent its representatives to the final rounds of the national competition in math and physics. At present, astrophysics is the topic of the "Astrolab" program, reserved for the best students of the school and organized in collaboration with a network that includes: TNG at Las Palmas (Canary), Pisa and Pavia University, Arcetri Observatory (Florence) and S.Marcello Pistoiese Observatory (Pistoia). The deep involvement in the "Zero Robotics" competition has increased the interest of the students in the space research.
Liceo Artistico "Melotti" in Lomazzo (Como) is arts high school addresses the study of aesthetic phenomena and artistic practice. It promotes the acquisition of specific methods of research and artistic production and the competence of related languages and techniques. It provides students with the tools necessary to know the artistic heritage in its historical and cultural context and to fully appreciate its presence and value in today's society. It helps students to deepen and develop their knowledge and competences and to mature the skills necessary to give expression to their creativity and design skills in the field of arts. (Age 14-18)

About ARISS:
Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) is a cooperative venture of international amateur radio societies and the space agencies that support the International Space Station (ISS). In the United States, sponsors are the Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation (AMSAT), the American Radio Relay League (ARRL), the Center for the Advancement of Science in Space (CASIS) and National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The primary goal of ARISS is to promote exploration of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) topics by organizing scheduled contacts via amateur radio between crew members aboard the ISS and students in classrooms or informal education venues. With the help of experienced amateur radio volunteers, ISS crews speak directly with large audiences in a variety of public forums. Before and during these radio contacts, students, teachers, parents, and communities learn about space, space technologies, and amateur radio. For more information, see www.ariss.org, www.amsat.org, and www.arrl.org.
Thank you & 73,

International Space Station Astronauts are Calling CQ Students –
ARISS-US program education proposal deadline is November 15, 2017
September 18, 2017: The Amateur Radio on the International Space
Station (ARISS) program is seeking proposals from U.S. schools,
museums, science centers and community youth organizations to host
radio contacts with an orbiting crew member aboard the International
Space Station (ISS) between July 1 and December 31, 2018.
Each year, ARISS provides tens of thousands of students with oppor-
tunities to learn about space technologies and space communications
through the exploration of Amateur Radio. The program provides
learning opportunities by connecting students to astronauts aboard
the International Space Station (ISS) through a partnership between
NASA, the American Radio Relay League, the Radio Amateur Satellite
Corporation and other Amateur Radio organizations and worldwide
space agencies. The program’s goal is to inspire students worldwide,
to pursue interests and careers in science, technology, engineering
and mathematics (STEM) through Amateur Radio.
Educators overwhelmingly report that student participation in the
ARISS program inspires an interest in STEM subjects and in STEM
careers. Ninety-two percent of educators who have participated in
the program have indicated that ARISS provided ideas for encourag-
ing student exploration, discussion, and participation, and 78
percent said that ARISS was effective in stimulating student
interest in STEM.
ARISS is looking for organizations that will draw large numbers
of participants and integrate the contact into a well-developed
education plan. Students can learn about satellite communications,
wireless technology, science research conducted on the space
station, what it is like to work in space, radio science, and any
related STEM subject. Students learn to use Amateur Radio to talk
directly to an astronaut and ask their STEM-related questions.
ARISS will help educational organizations locate Amateur Radio
groups who can assist with equipment for this once-in-a-lifetime
opportunity for students.
The proposal deadline for 2018 contacts is November 15, 2017.
The ARISS website has additional details on expectations, proposal
guidelines, and the proposal form. See:
http://www.ariss.org/hosting-an-ariss-contact-in-the-us.html

One of the ARISS operation team mentors
Microsoft seems to be getting rid of DDE support. Does anyone have some C# or VB2017 DDE client code that can be built under Visual Studio 2017?
Thanks,
Richard W5SXD
Hi all,
A few days ago I have transmitted and recorded a (low-power) FT8 signal
through the FO-29 linear transponder to test some Doppler correction
algorithms I'm developing (see
http://destevez.net/2017/10/wsjt-x-and-linear-satellites-part-ii/)
After Doppler correction, I'm left with a linear frequency drift both in
my downlink signal and in the satellite CW beacon. However, the drift
rate of my signal and the beacon are different. Specifically, my signal
drifts 1.26 times faster than the beacon. I suspect that this drift is
due to one of the local oscillators in FO-29.
To understand this better, I need to look at a block diagram of the
FO-29 linear transponder. The best I've found is this:
http://www.jarl.org/English/5_Fuji/systeme.gif
However, I need something similar to this:
https://funcubetest2.files.wordpress.com/2010/11/funcube_rf_board_block_dia…
Since I need to see the frequencies of all the local oscillators
involved in the transponder and CW beacon.
Is there a more detailed block diagram for FO-29 or does anyone know
something about this information?
73,
Dani EA4GPZ.
Good suggestion Roger, will keep that one in mine.
My original plan was to build a timer circuit that would stay on for a few
minutes and use the voltage that activates the rotator motors as a trigger.

Thanks for your suggestion on using the Arduino Andrew, but at this stage I
am exploring if the actual program can do this function. May look at that
option later if required.
Colin I think you may be onto it there, I know I spoke to some others about
doing this but just cannot recall it.
I think a change needs to be done in one of the configuration files.
I have tried activating the RTS+ 12V function and I do get a constant
output voltage on the serial pin, I need it to stay low then switch high
when sat in view.
We will keep exploring and thanks again.
