by aj9n＠aol.com 11 Jul '24

11 Jul '24

Upcoming ARISS Contact Schedule as of 2024-07-11 16:00 UTC Quick list of scheduled contacts and events: Houjoudu Elementary School, Imizu, Japan, direct via JA9YQJ The ISS callsign is presently scheduled to be OR4ISS The downlink frequency is presently scheduled to be 145.800 MHz The latest information on the operation mode can be found at https://www.ariss.org/current-status-of-iss-stations.html The scheduled crewmember is Mike Barratt KD5MIJ The ARISS mentor is 7M3TJZ Contact was successful: Thu 2024-07-11 10:48:03 UTC 83 deg (***) Congratulations to the Houjoudu Elementary School students, Mike, mentor 7M3TJZ, and ground-station JA9YQJ! (***) Hokusetsu District Osaka Council Scout Association of Japan, Toyonaka, Japan, direct via JJ3YDM The ISS callsign is presently scheduled to be OR4ISS The downlink frequency is presently scheduled to be 145.800 MHz The latest information on the operation mode can be found at https://www.ariss.org/current-status-of-iss-stations.html The scheduled crewmember is Mike Barratt KD5MIJ The ARISS mentor is 7M3TJZ Contact is go for: 2024-07-18 08:23:52 UTC 49 deg The crossband repeater continues to be active. If any crewmember is so inclined, all they have to do is pick up the microphone, raise the volume up, and talk on the crossband repeater. So give a listen, you just never know. Note, all times are approximate. It is recommended that you do your own orbital prediction or start listening about 10 minutes before the listed time. All dates and times listed follow International Standard ISO 8601 date and time format YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS The complete schedule page has been updated as of 2024-07-11 16:00 UTC. (***) Here you will find a listing of all scheduled school contacts, and questions, other ISS related websites, IRLP and Echolink websites, and instructions for any contact that may be streamed live. https://www.amsat.org/amsat/ariss/news/arissnews.rtf https://www.amsat.org/amsat/ariss/news/arissnews.txt The successful school list has been updated as of 2024-07-11 16:00 UTC. (***) https://www.amsat.org/amsat/ariss/news/Successful_ARISS_schools.rtf ####################################################################################################################################### Comments on making general contacts I have been seeing a lot of traffic on Facebook and I suspect on other social media sites with people asking why they are not hearing the crew make general contacts. First off the crew is very busy on the ISS and they simply may not have the time to just pick up the microphone and talk. Also, one needs to be aware of their normal daily schedule. I have listed below the constraints that we at ARISS have to follow in order to schedule the school contacts. Hopefully this will help you better schedule your opportunities. Typical daily schedule Wakeup to Workday start= 1.5 hours Workday start to Workday end=12 hours Workday end to Sleep= 2 hours Sleep to wakeup= 8.5 hours The crew's usual waking period is 07:30 – 19:30 UTC. The most common times to find a crew member making casual periods are about one hour after waking up and about an hour before sleeping, when they have personal time. They're usually free most of the weekend, as well. SSTV events are not that often. So please check out https://www.ariss.org/ for the latest information or watch for the ARISS announcements. And don’t forget that the packet system is sometimes active. Check the status at https://www.ariss.org/ or http://www.issfanclub.eu to see if the packet system is active or not. As always, if there is an EVA, a docking, or an undocking; the ARISS radios are turned off as part of the safety protocol. The latest information on the operation mode can be found at https://www.ariss.org/current-status-of-iss-stations.html The latest list of frequencies in use can be found at https://www.ariss.org/contact-the-iss.html ######################################################################################################################################## A multi-point telebridge contact means that each student will be on the telebridge from their own home. **************************************************************************************************************************************** ARISS is very aware of the impact that COVID-19 is having on schools and the public in general. As such, we may have last minute cancellations or postponements of school contacts. As always, I will try to provide everyone with near-real-time updates. Watch for future COVID-19 related announcements at https://www.ariss.org/ The following schools have now been postponed or cancelled due to COVID-19: Postponed: No new schools Cancelled: No new schools **************************************************************************************************************************************** The ARISS webpage is at https://www.ariss.org/ Note that there are links to other ARISS websites from this site.

Re: Mesat-1 telemetry is on continuously
by JoAnne Maenpaa 10 Jul '24

I used to monitor telemetry from the older FOX satellites with a slower laptop running an SDR. I found that I had to wait for the 'Queue' in the lower right corner of the FoxTelem panel to go down to zero before exiting FoxTelem otherwise my most recent bytes wouldn't show. Sometimes it took a minute or two for the upload queue to empty. On 7/10/2024 1:26 PM, Chris Thompson via AMSAT-BB wrote: > Well done!

Hi John, yes, that's the right mode to select. What are you using to receive?

Re: amsatbare.txt file

Hi, The SatPC32 Update Keps feature doesn't work with https links for TLE files. That would require changes of the source code and maybe requires a new Delphi version for me. I will care about that but that will at least take time and at present I don't have much time for the hobby. But all https websites can be accessed also with http. Then they are no "secure" sites but that is meaningless with websites that contain Keps. Therefore use http in the aux. file Celestrak.SQF for AMSAT and Celestrak TLE (Two Line Elements) files, as described by Charlie, AJ9N, see below. With that modification the Download Keps function works. Also, the https links can be accessed with your browser, of course. Enter the links into the address line of the browser. So, you can download the Keps and save them in the SatPC32 data folder 'Kepler' (see path to that folder in the footline of menu 'Satellites'). BTW: Meanwhile my website supports also SSL. You can access it with https://www.dk1tb.de and https://www.dk1tb-2.de Also, SatPC32 supports now - besides TLE files - the new formats for Keps files XML, KVN and CSV. Celestrak publishes the Keps files also in these formats. The SatPC32 UpdateKeps feature works with these files also when downloaded from https sites (I don't know why that is different vs. the TLE files). Therefore you can use https in Celestrack. SQF with these files, eg. https://celestrak.org/NORAD/elements/gp.php?GROUP=amateur&FORMAT=xml 73s, Erich, DK1TB Am 07.07.2024 um 18:00 schrieb Charlie Sufana via AMSAT-BB: > Based on all of the email traffic on this, I thought I would modify my > sqf file with the newest file names.

Yaesu G-5500DC trouble shooting?
by Tom Kenny 09 Jul '24

09 Jul '24

I purchased a new Yaesu G-5500DC.Ensured continuity for each pin on the female connector to the corresponding screw on the controller box. Meaning pin 1 to screw 1 and so on. I only connected the Azimuth so far.I powered the control box turn it on and depress the left button and then the right button and nothing happens. I was expecting the azmuith rotator to turn...I rechecked continuity from the pins on the female connector to the screws on the controller box and they all seemed good. However, I noticed that screws 4 and 5 on the control box have continuity for azmuith. Is this normal? I noticed that scres 4 and 5 of the elevation screws also have continuity... Does anybody have any suggestions on troubleshooting? Are there other forums more appropriate for this topic? Thanks for any advise! 73, Tom NJ2DX

ARISS News Release No. 24-38
by David H Jordan 09 Jul '24

09 Jul '24

*ARISS News Release No.24-38* *Dave Jordan, AA4KN * *ARISS PR* *aa4kn(a)amsat.org <aa4kn(a)amsat.org>* *FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE* *ARISS Contact is Scheduled with Students at * *Houjoudu Elementary School, Imizu, Japan* July 9, 2024—Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) has received schedule confirmation for an ARISS radio contact between an astronaut aboard the International Space Station (ISS) and students at the Houjoudu Elementary School located in Imizu, Japan. ARISS conducts 60-100 of these special amateur radio contacts each year between students around the globe and crew members with ham radio licenses aboard the ISS. Imizu City Houjoudu Elementary School in Toyama Prefecture has a 150-year history, and currently has 103 students. The Shinminato Amateur Radio club is assisting with this ARISS contact. Students have been preparing for this ARISS contact by watching images of the ISS and learning about Miura folding, a variation of the ancient Japanese tradition of origami. Miura folding method is named for Koryo Miura of Tokyo University's Institute of Space and Aeronautical Science who was looking for efficient ways to fold and unfold the solar panels of spacecraft so that they can fit inside a rocket then unfurl in orbit to catch the sun’s rays. Miura folding method allows it to be easily opened and closed by applying force in one direction. This will be a direct contact via Amateur Radio allowing students to ask their questions of astronaut Mike Barratt, amateur radio call sign KD5MIJ. The downlink frequency for this contact is 145.800 MHz and may be heard by listeners that are within the ISS-footprint that also encompasses the relay ground station. The amateur radio ground station for this contact is in Imizu, Japan. Amateur radio operators using call sign JA9YQJ, will operate the ground station to establish and maintain the ISS connection. The ARISS radio contact is scheduled for July 11, 2024 at 7:48 pm JST (Japan) (10:48 UTC, 6:48 am EDT, 5:48 am CDT, 4:48 am MDT, 3:48 am PDT). _______________________________ As time allows, students will ask these questions: 1. Can you use a mobile phone in the ISS? 2. Have you ever seen an alien? 3. Is it cold or hot in space? 4. Do you have trouble eating and drinking? 5. How fast does the spaceship fly? 6. How do you feel with no gravity? 7. What kind of feeling do you have watching the Earth from space? 8. Were you scared to go to space? 9. What is your favorite space food? 10. What is the first thing you want to do when you return to Earth? 11. What would you do if you got sick or had cavities on a spaceship? 12. Why did you decide to become an astronaut? 13. How much does the space suit weigh? 14. How do you sleep in zero gravity? Would you like to lie down? 15. What has been the biggest challenge you’ve faced adapting to life on the space station? *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 ISS. In the United States, sponsors are the American Radio Relay League (ARRL), Amateur Radio Digital Communications (ARDC), Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation (AMSAT), NASA’s Space Communications and Navigation program (SCaN) and the ISS National Lab—Space Station Explorers. The primary goal of ARISS is to promote exploration of science, technology, engineering, the arts, and mathematics topics. ARISS does this by organizing scheduled contacts via amateur radio between crew members aboard the ISS and students. Before and during these radio contacts, students, educators, parents, and communities take part in hands-on learning activities tied to space, space technologies, and amateur radio.
