Hi All, 4 deg pass in California at 00:18 UTC AOS about 3 S units over the noise, the long gap between groups makes copy interesting with the Doppler. 73 Kevin WA6FWF Amsat-UK #6505

Way To Go HITSAT
by Keith N4ZQ/2 23 Sep '06

I to 'copied' HITSAT from here in West Central Florida. AOS at 22:43 on 437.275 (because that is where the receiver was set to) with a solid S9 signal. Copy Following Data Signal 599 at 437.275 AOS at 22:43 2c4f504d514c4a4b c1d1d2e6 JR8YJT 29011317222D LOS at 18:47 437.266 MHz Agree with Drew, the long gaps in transmission made for tuning and copying a bit hard. Hence, the there are gaps in the receive data while looking for the signal to reappear. Good Luck HITSAT. Looks like you got a SAT that's a HIT... 73 Keith N4ZQ EL88pa

Here's a couple of snippets from this evenings AMSAT-BB digest. Looks like these wireless cameras are going to cause problems to the Galileo E5 service. Especially as a 200mW version is available on ebay for £15 (Yes, they do actually generate that level of RF power!), there are going to be a lot of them about! Jules snip ------------------------------------------------- Wireless 1.2 GHz cameras I just picked up one of these little $60 cameras and am glad to report that they are not in the Amateur Allocation. They are 40 MHz wide each (4 channels) starting at 1060-1100, 1100-1140, 1140-1180, 1180-1220. But I was impressed with their range. An easy 1000' with the supplied receiver. My guess is about 5 milliwatts ERP. The energy at the edges was more than 60 dB down... ------------------------------------------------- snip ------------------------------------------------- Current publicly available Galileo documentation indicates that "Safety of Life" services will be provided on E5a/E5b (1164 to 1215 MHz) downlink and the E2/L1/E1 (1559 to 1591 MHz) downlink. The E6 (1260 to 1300 MHz) downlink is designated for 'commercial services' and not the aviation. Thus, I am VERY curious why the interference to aircraft navigation receivers is constantly brought up in this discussion as it appears a non-player. -------------------------------------------------
