Re: Fw: Re: Anousheh Ansari on Ham Radio
She was active at 07:33 UTC over England trying for an Iranian callsign..she didn't use phonetics but it seemed to be EPT??RS. There seems to me a number missing in the sequence so I can't be sure if I got it correctly.
After three tries she stopped and then appeared on the Moscow Mission Control frequency 143.625 and I just heard a few words from her before the pass window closed.

Hi all, I am interested to know how often the crew uses the 143.625 freq. When Anousheh is on 145.800, also check 143.625. In theory, when 143.625 is transmitting, the ham reciever will go deaf.
We had a similar problem on Mir. When 143.625 was on the air, i had to run "Excessive ERP" at close range to get into the Ham station. I fixed the Mir problem by installing a filter from DCI, that had a special Notch for 143.625.
thanks wf1f Marex

The ISS crew uses 143.625 when in range of Russian Ground sites. Sometimes this is because they don't have TDRSS comm. and other is to coordinate Russian only activities. The only other time 143.625 is uses is for the Emergency communication checkout once a month over N. America.

It's possible, her voice is not clear and it's obvious that she is unaccustomed to using the radio! Shame that she is not calling CQ in Europe though - lots of people over here are waiting for a QSO with her!

David - G8OQW was kind enough to provide a recording. It sounds to me like she is calling EP3RS. EP is the prefix for Iran. Makes sense she would try to work someone in Iran since she was born there.

I believe she was calling for EP3RF. They were planning for a contact on September 25th with some students attending the session. However, I have not seen any comments if this actually happened... Instead I've got a report through her Blog, that in Iran the band is associated to some governmental services and nobody else may listen or read anything on it. Instead, most amateur radio operators are using the old 27MHz (11m) band.. I don't know if this is true, but it may explain why the contact may have failed..

Looks like EP3RF is who she was trying to get. I found the call in her Blog. Look here http://spaceblog.xprize.org/2006/09/22/the-trip-up/ and then do a find for EP3RF or scroll down to comment #114.

Anousheh, was active over the east cost USA at 14:05 - 14:08 calling cq and K9SOU.
She must have been on a school uplink channel since she did not hear anyone. Down link was on 145.800 MHZ Uplink unknown. I tried all public uplinks and no contact. Her down link signal and audio was good. Running 22 element cp antenna az/el
K9SOU Lookups: 407 Bloomington High School South Amateur Radio Club 1965 S Walnut St Bloomington IN 47401 USA

She was active again during the 1540 pass. She called the school and a few other randdom contacts.
The uplink may have been 144.490, but can not confirm. She is not an expirenced ham and does not always repeat the call signs. So contact confirmaiton is tricky.
