(not up and running currently)
To switch the transmitter on, you need to send a CTCSS tone of 74.4 Hz.
The order of operation is thus: (allow for Doppler as necessary):
1) Transmit on 145.850 MHz with a tone of 74.4 Hz to arm the 10 minute
timer
on board the spacecraft.
2) Now transmit on 145.850 MHz (FM Voice) using 67.0 Hz to PT the
repeater on
and off within the 10 Minute window.
3) Sending the 74.4 tone again within the 10 minute window will reset
the 10
minute timer.

Bottom line:
Talk-in for Symposium will be on 146.955/146.355 or 443.65/448.65
repeaters. (out/in) BOTH repeaters REQUIRE 131.8Hz CTCSS.
The 443.65 has very good coverage (3 remote receivers and 250 W tx) in
areas where the 2m is "marginal". If not making UHF, user should try VHF.

October 21, 2007
To All RADIO AMATEURS
BID: $ANS-294.05
For all of you that sell your goodies on eBay, wether it is
ham radio related or not, you can donate a portion of your
sale automatically to AMSAT through MissionFish.
To do this, when you list your item for sale, there is a tab
that pops up on the “How you’re selling” screen for Online
Auction or Fixed Price. Within those tabs, there is a blue
and yellow ribbon with “Donate a percentage of sale.” After
selecting AMSAT as your nonprofit organization, pick a per-
centage of the selling price to go to the AMSAT. That’s all
you have to do.
When the auction is over, you give your donation to MissionFish
or do nothing and MissionFish will deduct it from your credit
card. In turn, MissionFish, will deposit the funds into AMSAT’s
bank account.
This is an ideal way to donate a little bit or a big bit to
AMSAT every time you auction something. You do not need to be
a member of AMSAT to donate money through eBay’s online auctions.
So, ask your non-ham friends if they would donate a little to
AMSAT every time they auction something on eBay.
To see how MissionFish works, go to http://www.missionfish.org.

AO-51 Software Crash - Reload/Reboot in Progress
Drew, KO4MA AMSAT-NA Vice President of Operations reported that
at 1848Z on OCtober 11 the software on AO-51 crashed and shut down
both transmitters. The repeater and BBS have been down for several
days while the command stations reload and restart the software.
On October 17, Drew reported on progress by the AO-51 Operations
Team, "We are making good progress in reloading the software nec-
essary to run AO-51, although it was a bit of a rocky start. The
control stations hope to have AO-51 reloaded by the weekend of
October 20-21. As we reload and restart operations on the satellite
we will be able to better predict its return to service."
Interested stations can use their TlmEcho software to watch progress
on the 435.150 MHz downlink. This downlink may only be on over the
Southeastern US depending on how far along the reloading has proceeded.

(not up and running currently)
To switch the transmitter on, you need to send a CTCSS tone of 74.4 Hz.
The order of operation is thus: (allow for Doppler as necessary):
1) Transmit on 145.850 MHz with a tone of 74.4 Hz to arm the 10 minute
timer
on board the spacecraft.
2) Now transmit on 145.850 MHz (FM Voice) using 67.0 Hz to PT the
repeater on
and off within the 10 Minute window.
3) Sending the 74.4 tone again within the 10 minute window will reset
the 10
minute timer.

BID: $ANS-287.01
Kevin Schuchmann, WA6FWF, reports that he has started to receive the requests
for certificates and is working on getting them out as fast as possible. The
response has been great so far. People requesting a certificate should keep
the
following in mind:
1) this is not a small QSL card, it is a certificate that is 8.5" x 11", if
you send a small envelope he will be forced to fold it.
2) make sure you have enough postage
3) if you want to make sure it does not get bent, include a card board backer
or use a heavier envelope
4) do not include money or stamps, I appreciate the gesture but it is not
necessary, donations can be sent to Martha directly
5) if you put "your" address up in the upper left coner as the return instead
of Kevin's then in the event there is not enough postage it will be
returned to the sender instead of Kevin for additional postage!!
Kevin observed that, "based on the fact that my mailbox was full and the
postman had to leave more at the front door I might need the couple
weeks we said it might take!"

GO-32 mobile APRS access success
AMSAT News Service Bulletin 287.03
From AMSAT HQ SILVER SPRING, MD.
October 14, 2007
To All RADIO AMATEURS
BID: $ANS-287.03
Bob Bruninga, WB4APR reports receiving over 150 packets from GO32 in the
mobile and gives the following report.
If you want to impress someone with handheld Satellite Communcications, just
stand outside during the prime morning or evening pass of GO-32 with your D7
HT set for APRS 9600 baud receive on 435.230 (5 KHz high at the start of the
pass) and watch the messages fly by... Switch to .225 and finally to .220 by
the end for maximum packets.
Tonight I finally remembered to set my D700 in my van to the GO32
downlink. Was out doing honeydoos around 7:50 PM and heard a few squelch
breaks. This would be the first evening pass. So that told me to be out 100
minutes later for the prime pass of the evening.
I was not disappointed! Received over 150 packes during the central 6 minutes
of the pass. I was just making hash marks on the back of an envelope while
watching the packets fly by on the front panel of the radio. I did tune 3
times for Doppler since I was just sitting there with nothing else to do.
This confirms that an unattended D700 or D7 hooked to a simple OMNI antnena
(and short coax) can make an excellent APRS satellite gateway. With say a
dozen of these across the USA, then the APRS-Internet system should get a
solid downlink!
After the fact, I came in and looked at the pass on Instantrack. Here is the
nitty-gritty showing the elevation angle versus number of packets received per
minute.
TIME EL PACKETS
0933 30 18
0934 40 23
0935 46 36
0936 45 35
0937 36 24
0938 26 13
For an unattended ground station without Doppler tuning, my guess would be
that this station would have received the center full 3 minutes of this 45
degree pass.
So, what is your handy D7 doing sitting on your shelf turned off? Hook it to
a 19" vertical whip over a ground plane outside your window and contribute
to the National GO-32 APRS downlink system!
I'll get someone to write a simple turn-key APRS IGate background application,
so you don't have to hasssle with all the other APRS stuff if you dont want
to. This way, you can just turn on the D7, hook it to a serial port, run
this application in the background, and you too will be a contributor to the
solid APRS downlink from GO-32!
Oh, On the D700, I had pressed the PACKET MONITOR button so that I was seeing
all GO-32 downlink packets on the front panel, not just the APRS ones. The D7
does not have the PMON button, so you will only see the APRS packets. But I
did receive the 3 APRS downlink bulletins perfectly many times, and every 30
seconds or so, I did receive the GO-32 TIME STATUS report on the front panel
of the radio.
So, even if you are not going to Igate, just hook that D7 to an outside 19"
vertical whip (this serves as a 3/4 wave gain vertical on the 435 downlink)
through a short coax (Antnena height does not matter, coax loss does!). You
won't hear anything below 30 degrees anyway... And just leave the HT on all
the time tuned to 435.230. Every morning and every evening, you will receive
GO-32 and any other APRS operators playing that evening.
When you hear good signals on 435.230, then 2 minutes later, switch to 435.225
and so on. When the pass is over, set your radio back to 435.230 for the next
HIGH pass 12 hours or so later.
You can leaave this on all the time, since it will not wake you up. GO-32
PEAK passes are within an hour or so of 9 AM and PM local time (maybe an hour
later after the change back to standard time)..
Thousands of AMSAT folks have these D7's, and I bet that 99% of them are not
in use most of the time. All we need are a dozen or so serving this
space-diversity ground station function...

+ Henk, PA3GUO, one of the control operators for the ANDE satellite
reminds amateurs that the packet-to-voice mode still remains avail-
able. A command from a ground station is required to enable this
mode so Henk invites amateurs interested in experimenting to con-
tact him by e-mail at pa3guo(a)amsat.org.
+ Drew, KO4MA, AMSAT VP of Operations reminds amateurs interested in
experimenting with different modes on AO-51 to submit their request
via e-mail to ao51-modes(a)amsat.org. One experimental mode under
consideration includes a day dedicated for D-Star testing via AO-51.
+ Special Events Station GB5OSO, celebrating the 50th anniversary of
the launch of Sputnik-1 has worked several stations through the
SO50, VO52, AO51, AO27, and AO7 satellites. Robert, G8ATE reported
a transatlantic contact between GB5OSO and Jim, VE1ZM on SO-50.
+ Earlier this year the Japanese Space Agency (JAXA) sponsored an
activity to fly your name to the moon aboard its "KAGUYA" (SELENE)
lunar probe. Selene has attained lunar orbit and JAXA reports
that messages from 412,627 people around the world are now at
the moon. For more information see:

1. Anamizu Contact Successful
On Saturday, October 6, students from seven elementary and junior high schools
in Anamizu-town, Housu-gun Ishikawa, Japan gathered to ask Clay Anderson,
KD5PLA, questions via an Amateur Radio on the International Space Station
(ARISS) contact. Nearly six hundred students were expected to participate in
this event and preparations leading up to and including the contact were to be
covered by the media. More information will follow as it becomes available.
2. Boy Scouts Participate in ARISS Contact
Boy Scouts from the Prairielands Council who attended the Space Jamboree in
Oakwood, Illinois, experienced a successful Amateur Radio on the International
Space Station (ARISS) contact on Saturday, October 6 via the telebridge
station VK4KHZ in Australia. All twenty questions which had been planned were
asked and answered. Clay Anderson, KD5PLA, then answered an additional twelve
for a total of 32 questions posed by thirteen of the scouts. Approximately
300 scouts, leaders, parents and one newspaper reporter attended the event.
The audio was fed into the EchoLink AMSAT (101 377) and JK1ZRW (277 208)
conference room servers, receiving 30 connections, including 4 repeater
nodes, from 9 countries. Among those countries listening were Poland,
Denmark, Ukraine, and Thailand. The audio was also fed into the IRLP
Discovery Reflector 9010.
*The Prairielands Council contact was the 38th contact made by the Expedition
15 crew members, tying Expedition 12 for the most contacts made during one
increment.*
3. Upcoming School Contacts
Malaysian space visitor Sheikh Shukor launched into space with Expedition 16
crew members on Wednesday, October 10. While onboard the ISS, Shukor plans to

To switch the transmitter on, you need to send a CTCSS tone of 74.4 Hz.
The order of operation is thus: (allow for Doppler as necessary):
1) Transmit on 145.850 MHz with a tone of 74.4 Hz to arm the 10 minute
timer
on board the spacecraft.
2) Now transmit on 145.850 MHz (FM Voice) using 67.0 Hz to PT the
repeater on
and off within the 10 Minute window.
3) Sending the 74.4 tone again within the 10 minute window will reset
the 10
minute timer.

(not up and running currently)
To switch the transmitter on, you need to send a CTCSS tone of 74.4 Hz.
The order of operation is thus: (allow for Doppler as necessary):
1) Transmit on 145.850 MHz with a tone of 74.4 Hz to arm the 10 minute
timer
on board the spacecraft.
2) Now transmit on 145.850 MHz (FM Voice) using 67.0 Hz to PT the
repeater on
and off within the 10 Minute window.
3) Sending the 74.4 tone again within the 10 minute window will reset
the 10
minute timer.
