Thanks Charlie. The event registration page at: https://astro.evsreg.com/registration/IndividualRegistration adds that one of the registration options: Friday 27th September at 1230 pm - 3pm Emirati time is a "Live video call and radio call with Hazza Almansoori from the International Space station".
but I calculate 1230 Emirati time to be 08:10 utc. Wonder what the ground track is? Presumably a commercial/nasa/roscosmos link? Unless someone is doing a telebridge.
In my earlier post I identified :According to the "tsiklogramma provedeniya" ( sequence diagram) on display in Star Sity last week, the Emirati Cosmonaut Hazza al-Mansoouri event for "ISS HAM session with the radio amateur service in the SM" is scheduled for 1515 UTC to 1535 UTC on his days in orbit there.It was suggested to me privately that this was a training time on the ground only. 15:15 UTC is 19:15 Emirati time. So difficult to sort it out, sorry that I cannot yet give any more information, but I am looking!

Hi all,
This is the latest information that ARISS-US knows about the upcoming contacts in the UAE. I have been given very little information so once I get updates, I will pass that along. ARISS-RU is coordinating with the schools. The Saturday contact seems to fit it in with Andy's findings.
Here is a snippet of what I have already posted to the AMSAT-BB.

According to the image just published at MBR Space Centre (@MBRSpaceCentre) | Twitter : A Radio call from the ISS to the audeince at the Mohammed bin Rashid Space Centre is on Saturday 28.09.19 between 1400-1530 Emirati time (which I think is 1000-1230 utc) this is down as a Radio call; all others are down as Video (times are given). Registration : https://mbrsc.ae/astronauts/#AstroAbout There's no reference to ham radio in this image, might well be using a different circuit.Would be useful to predict ground tracks at these times. Evidently a lot of space <>ground radio activity by the Emirati astronaut.
