(***) 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.

Yes, there actually is. Well, you will have to do some work as well in order to make it work. You can buy a TYT MD UV380 or the Retevis RT-3S (both are the same radio under different names) with or without GPS but I would recommend the GPS included models. Now comes the part where you have to do some work. You will have to install a different Firmware on the radio, called OpenGD77. Here is the relevant website with all download links and step-by-step instructions to install the Firmware: https://www.opengd77.com/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=2380 After the Firmware is installed you will be able to use the build in satellite feature which includes automatic frequency shift for the selected satellite. It also offers build in satellite tracking. Good luck Peter KC3UEP Sent with [Proton Mail](https://proton.me/) secure email.

I don't know of any brand from a few years ago, if there is someone will know, if we come back to the present day the Baofeng DM1701 and the Retevis RT3S can perform Doppler change with a free firmware called OpenGD77 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUWXI47oLr8 Ignacio - TI3IES El lun, 29 abr 2024 a las 11:44, samuel galet via AMSAT-BB (< amsat-bb(a)amsat.org>) escribió: > I once read there was a rare handi that automatically corrected for the > doppler shift during a satellite pass.

Never heard of such a beast. You did not mention if this was for FM satellites, which I think is the case or linear satellites.FM satellites you can usually store 5 frequency pairs, where VHF stays the same and UHF will change according to AOS, TCA, LOS. Linear satellites require some tuning even if you decide to operate with only one radio (Not recommended). These sats require dual radios to work properly. 73, Adrian AA5UK On Monday, April 29, 2024 at 12:44:35 PM CDT, samuel galet via AMSAT-BB <amsat-bb(a)amsat.org> wrote: I once read there was a rare handi that automatically corrected for the doppler shift during a satellite pass.
