According to Gulf News, which publishes the UAE's MBRSpaceCentre's official schedule, the ham radio sessions for Emirati astronaut Hazza al-Mansoori are as follows: Day 1, September 26 (Thursday):

- HAM Radio: 11.33pm-11.42pm Emirati time

The next space/ground contacts will be on Sunday 29th at 2.40pm to 2.57pm. Two more sessions are scheduled on Monday 30th and Tuesday 31st at 4.14pm-4.34pm. It's not clear whether or not these will be on ham radio as on these Gulf News report that "The calls will last for roughly 17 to 20 minutes each" which I don't think is possible with a normal pass. No other detals are given yet.

I have not checked the orbital precession times but they are likely to be in the same timeframe  within the astronaut's schedule as I previously reported, and will reflect the AOS and pass time over the UAE.

So one definite QSO time and three possibles.
