Next Rocket Lab launch now 20th November UTC

by Wendy and Terry Osborne

The weather at the Launch site doesn't look good for tomorrow so the launch is delayed for a day. See: https://twitter.com/RocketLab/status/1328800285498560513 The press kit here is worth a read: https://www.rocketlabusa.com/assets/Uploads/Return-to-Sender-Press-Kit-RL-F… So far nothing new on the Auckland University satellite web page. The only new information I have is that the downlink frequency is 435.1 MHz, 9600 bps GMSK data, AX25 Space Packet Protocol, with ECSS Telemetry & Telecommand Packet Utilization Standard (PUS) encoding. 73, Terry Osborne ZL2BAC

ARISS anticipates that the contact would be held between July 1, 2021 and December 30, 2021. Crew scheduling and ISS orbits will determine the exact contact dates. To maximize these radio contact opportunities, ARISS is looking for organizations that will draw large numbers of participants and integrate the contact into a well-developed education plan. The deadline to submit a proposal is November 24th, 2020. Proposal information and more details such as expectations, proposal guidelines and the proposal form can be found at www.ariss.org. An ARISS Introductory Webinar session will be held on October 8, 2020 at 8PM ET. The Eventbrite link to sign up is: https://ariss-proposal-webinar-fall-2020.eventbrite.com The Opportunity Crew members aboard the International Space Station will participate in scheduled Amateur Radio contacts. These radio contacts are approximately 10 minutes in length and allow students to interact with the astronauts through a question-and-answer session. An ARISS contact is a voice-only communication opportunity via Amateur Radio between astronauts and cosmonauts aboard the space station and classrooms and communities. ARISS contacts afford education audiences the opportunity to learn firsthand from astronauts what it is like to live and work in space and to learn about space research conducted on the ISS. Students also will have an opportunity to learn about satellite communication, wireless technology, and radio science. Because of the nature of human spaceflight and the complexity of scheduling activities aboard the ISS, organizations must demonstrate flexibility to accommodate changes in dates and times of the radio contact. Amateur Radio organizations around the world with the support of NASA and space agencies in Russia, Canada, Japan and Europe present educational organizations with this opportunity. The ham radio organizations’ volunteer efforts provide the equipment and operational support to enable communication between crew on the ISS and students around the world using Amateur Radio. Please direct any questions to ariss.us.education(a)gmail.com. For future proposal information and more details such as expectations, proposal guidelines and proposal form, and dates and times of Information Webinars, go to www.ariss.org. 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 ISS National Lab and National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). The primary goal of ARISS is to promote exploration of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEAM) topics by organizing scheduled contacts via amateur radio between crew members aboard the ISS and students in classrooms or public forms. Before and during these radio contacts, students, educators, parents, and communities learn about space, space technologies, and amateur radio.

New launch date for EASAT-2 and Hades satellites

by Felix Paez EA4GQS

Dear friends, only to inform you that the AMSAT-EA satellites EASAT-2 and HADES flying with SpaceX, are finally going to be launched, after a small delay, on January 14, 2021. They have been already delivered and integrated on the Alba Orbital deployer. The satellites have been configured to act as FM voice and FSK data repeaters and not as linear transponders as It was our initial plan. Anyway We think these are the smallest satellites ever given such a function, as their size is only 7.5cm x 5 x 5 cm!. Hades also flies a SSTV camera that will take and send pictures each 15 minutes. The camera module design is based on the one used in the PSAT2 satellite, being kindly adapted for us by the Brno University of Technology. Both satellites have also digitized FM voice beacons. Callsigns are AM5SAT for EASAT-2 and AM6SAT for Hades. Downlink frequencies, 436.666 MHz for the first and 436.888 MHz for the second one. These are our first satellites, with the project leaders being all spanish radio amateurs and almost all the engineering made by radio amateurs too, with help of students of two Universities. Said that, We apologize if not all working perfectly as expected, as AMSAT-EA doesn't have the flight heritage of other AMSAT organizations as NA, UK or DL. We appreciate your patience and support as We are all willing to improve our skills to build better satellites for the radio-amateur service in the future. More information and pictures about them (and also about our ASK/CW repeater satellites GENESIS-L and GENESIS-N, also to be launched 2021 with Firefey) here: https://translate.google.com/translate?hl=&sl=es&tl=en&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.… Original in Spanish: https://www.amsat-ea.org/proyectos/ Thanks and regards, Felix EA4GQS AMSAT-EA President

Satpc32 Fine Doppler Correction?

by Tony

All: I noticed that Satpc32's Doppler correction tends to be a bit choppy when working CW and I was wondering if there's a way to correct this? Doppler corrections appear to take place every 2 seconds or so with the default configuration. The rig is an ICOM 9700. Tony

Problem with Funcube Dongle

by Yono Adisoemarta

Dear all, My 4 years old Funcube Dongle Pro+ is not working so I’m seeking help if it is repairable. Under Funcube/Nayif/JY1Sat decoder it is detected, but no frame decoded. Under Foxtelem, it is also detected and active, but no frame decoded (last March, when I took my raspi-FIAB down, it was getting plenty of frames every day). Under HDSDR, it shows a huge waterfall on the tune freq. Let me know how to repair this dongle. 73 de Yono - YD0NXX Sent from my iPhone

Re: [amsat-bb] UZ7HO Modem PTT Problem

by Tony

All: Re: UZ7HO Soundmodem It turns out that it's normal for the Advanced PTT Settings button to appear disabled until the user selects the CAT port which is way down at the bottom of the port list. With the CAT port selected, the advanced PTT window settings will pop up with a list of radios which includes the IC-9700. Problem solved. Tony
