**************************************************************************** **
Interested in hosting an ARISS contact? The window is now open from 2015-09-01 to 2015-11-01. These proposals will be for school contacts during the second half of 2016. Go to http://www.arrl.org/hosting-an-ariss-contact or http://www.ariss.org/apply-to-host-an-ariss-contact.html for full details.
To help organizations in preparing their proposals, the ARISS Program Coordinator will offer hour-long online information sessions. These are designed to provide more information regarding US ARISS contacts and the proposal process and offer an opportunity to ask questions. While attending an online information session is not required, it is strongly encouraged. These will be offered Thursday, September 17, at 2000 UTC; Tuesday, September 22, at 2000 UTC, and Wednesday, September 30, at 2300 UTC. Advance registration is necessary. Email ARISS ([email protected]) to sign up for an information session.
**************************************************************************** **
From 2015-12-20 to 2016-01-04, there will be no US Operational Segment
(USOS) hams on board ISS. So any schools contacts during this period will be conducted by the ARISS Russia team.
**************************************************************************** ARISS is always glad to receive listener reports for the above contacts. ARISS thanks everyone in advance for their assistance. Feel free to send your reports to [email protected] or [email protected]
**************************************************************************** Several of you have sent me emails asking about the RAC ARISS website and not being able to get in. That has now been changed to http://www.ariss.org/

Hi Fold,
I have just changed AO-73/FUNcube to full time transponder ON mode. As usual, plan it to revert to auto eclipse mode on Sun pm UTC.
Enjoy
73s Jim G3WGM
Hi folks,
Just to say that I have just commanded AO-73/FUNcube-1 into continuous transponder mode. Plan as usual is to return it to auto eclipse switching on Sunday pm UTC.
Have great weekend.
73s Jim G3WGM
Hi Folks,
I have just switched AO-73/FUNcube into full time transponder mode, so It will be active throughout the weekend.
As usual the plan is to switch it back to auto switching mode on Sunday PM UTC
More at funcube.org.uk. Enjoy!
Jim G3WGM
Hi Folks,
Just to let you know that I have just switched AO-73/FUNcube to continuous transponder mode. As previously announced, it will stay in this mode all over the holidays until Sun 3 Jan PM (UTC) when we'll switch it back to normal 'education' mode.
Have fun with the transponder, and Happy Holidays from the FUNcube team.

Perfect.
As a complete neophyte at SSB transponder operation this will give me a great opportunity, over my holiday break, to work all the bugs out of the mobile station I just built. Icom IC-706 (first generation, 1996 vintage! Yipe!) up, Yaesu FT857D down, Alaskan Arrow on a tripod with ball mount and separate feeds, old laptop running Ubuntu and SATPC32 on Wine for tracking. Whenever the CAT cable for this Icom arrives, then I'll have computer control of tuning for both rigs.
I think this operator should commit himself to achieving the goal, before this month is out, of landing a signal on AO-73 and returning it safely to the Earth.
Sounds great, Jeff! I suggest that you also try full manual tuning, even before automatic. It's not as hard as it seems.

Hi.
A great challenge for the month ahead. Good luck with finding your own signals. - A few CW dots will be easier than SSB.
One possible issue though....I used an IC706 Mk 2G for the uplink here for a while. Turned out that on transmit the synthesiser generates wideband noise across the whole VHF/UHF spectrum. It's quite low level, but it can cause issues with VHF reception if the antennas are too close together. I tried all sorts of SAW and Cavity filters but never solved the problem.
73 es Merry Christmas

Thanks for the heads-up on that one -- this is my first Icom rig ever (up to now I've been exclusively a Yaesu person) so I'm not sure what to expect. Perhaps the problem you had was specific to that particular radio?
Jeff,
You may end up transmitting from the FT-857 and listening with the IC-706 for AO-73. It was the third generation of the 706 line, the IC-706Mk2G, which added 70cm to the other bands it already had (HF, 6m, 2m). Good luck with your setup, and hopefully you can meet that goal before the month is out.
73!

Yes, now that I think about it, I did have that backwards. I seem to have a real problem with that.
Hi Folks,
Just to say that I have just switched AO-73/FUNcube from auto eclipse mode, to Amateur mode so the transponder will be on fulltime, regardless of whether the sat is in darkness or in sunlight.
As always, the plan is to switch back to normal mode on Sunday pm (UTC)
Enjoy the transponder and have a great and FUN weekend!!
73s Jim G3WGM
Hi Folks,
I have just switched AO-73/FUNcube from educational mode to amateur made. The transponder will be on 24/7 over the weekend.
The plan, as usual, it to switch to normal mode (transponder ON when sat is in eclipse) on Sunday pm (UTC)
Enjoy the transponder
73s Jim G3WGM
Hi Folks,
I have just changed AO-73/FUNcube from Educational Mode to Amateur Mode, so the transponder will now run continuously, even when the sat is in daylight. As usual we will switch back to educational Mode (High Power beacon when the sat is in day light) on Sunday evening (UTC).
Enjoy the transponder over the weekend
73s Jim G3WGM
Hi Folks,
Just to say that I have just switched AO-73/FUNcube-1 to manual mode, so the transponder will be on full time. Its early this weekend, so those attending the AMSAT-NA Symposium can make use of the satellite. Plan is to switch back to educational mode on Monday 14 Nov during a suitable pass over Europe.
Have FUN cruising!
73s Jim G3WGM
Hi Folks,
Just to let you know that I have just switched AO-73/FUNcube from Educational mode to continuous Amateur Mode, with the transponder on 24/7.
Early this weekend partly because of the Easter Holiday, and party due to Ground Station Availability.
The plan is to revert back to normal Educational Mode after the Holiday either on Mon pm, and Tue am, UTC.
Enjoy the transponder, and happy holidays!

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ FUNcube frequencies and other details ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
AO-73 FUNcube-1 The transponder is normally operational only when the satellite is in eclipse, ie the solar panels are NOT being illuminated. During weekends (from pm Fridays UTC to PM Sundays UTC) the transponder is operational 24/7.
When the transponder is switched off, the telemetry beacon is on full power, when the transponder is on the beacon it is on low power. During holidays, eg Christmas, New Year, Easter, etc, the transponder maybe activated for extended periods. Watch AMSAT-BB for announcements which are usually made on Friday evenings (UTC)
The nominal transponder frequencies are: Uplink: 435.150 - 435.130 MHz LSB (Inverting) Downlink: 145.950 - 145.970 MHz USB Telemetry Tx: 145.935 MHz BPSK
(The passband may be up to 15kHz higher depending on on-board temps. Low temperatures give higher freqs!)
FUNcube-2 aka FUNcube on UKube The FUNcube-2 sub-system continues to operate autonomously and, almost continuously, in amateur mode. The transponder is operational and the telemetry downlink is functioning with about 70mW output. The FUNcube-1 Dashboard does not correctly display the telemetry but it does correctly decode the data and uploads it to the FUNcube Data Warehouse from where it can be examined. Most of the real time data channels are operational and these include battery voltages, temperatures and ADCS data coming via the main On Board Computer (OBC).
The transponder is interrupted for a few seconds every 2 minutes when the other transmitter sends its CW beacon and, occasionally, for a few seconds when the main OBC reboots (approx seven times each orbit).
The nominal transponder frequencies are: Uplink: 435.080 - 435.060 MHz LSB (Inverting) Downlink: 145.930 - 145.950 MHz USB Telemetry Tx: 145.915 MHz BPSK
(The passband may be up to 10kHz higher depending on on-board temps. Low temperatures give higher freqs!)
EO79 FUNcube-3 Due to power budget constraints the transponder cannot be operational 24/7 and an orbit specific schedule has been developed. The transponder will commence operation 27 minutes after the spacecraft enters sunlight and will stay on for a period of 25 minutes. This schedule may be modified in future months as a result of experience.
The nominal transponder frequencies are: Uplink: 435.0723-435.0473 MHz LSB (Inverting) Downlink: 145.946-145.971 MHz USB
Further detailed info on EO79 transponder frequencies is at: https://amsat-uk.org/2016/11/10/eo79-funcube-3-transponder-commences-regular... Nayif-1 FUNcube-5EO88 is presently operating in autonomous mode. The transponder isoperational when the satellite is in eclipse, ie the solar panels are NOTbeing illuminated.When the transponder is switched off, the telemetry beacon is on full power,when the transponder is on the beacon it is on low power.The transponder frequencies are:Uplink: 435.045 – 435.015 MHz LSB (inverting)Downlink: 145.960-145.990 MHz USBTelemetry Tx: 145.940MHzAll FUNcube transponders are sponsored by AMSAT-UK and AMSAT-NL. We are verygrateful for the assistance given by Innovative Solution In Space Bv, TheNetherlands.
Hi Folks,
This is to let you know that I have just switched AO-73/FUNcube back into autonomous mode, ie Educational mode when in sunlight, and amateur mode (low power beacon with transponder ON) when in eclipse.
This switch was done later than normal (normally done Sunday evenings UTC) due to the Easter Holidays.
