(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 re-
peater 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.

Attention AMSAT Volunteers!
It is that time again when we gather volunteer hours donated to the AMSAT
Program of Work to include within our yearly Audit. These important
donations of personal time help us illustrate to the outside world the
involvement of our members. We welcome reporting in all areas of service
from Managing a booth at a Hamfest, to engineering of new AMSAT projects, to
day to day operational activities.
If you are not already signed up for the on line Web site "VRS" (Volunteer
Reporting System) program, please go to amsat.org and select "Become a
Volunteer" from the link on the left side of the main page. Select #2 in
order to create an account for your reporting. You will be given a
confidential account into which you can report your volunteer hours. Select
# 3 to actually report your 2009 efforts.
We total up the efforts and total value while we keep confidential the
actual dollar amount of each volunteer.
With the year drawing to a close, this is a great time to submit those
hours. After January 1, 2010 we'll download the file and report these
numbers to our Auditor.
Your efforts are important, so please take the time to report. If you have
any questions feel free to email me at: w8gsm(a)amsat.org.

All radio amateurs, worldwide, are cordially invited to participate
in AMSAT's Straight Key Night on OSCAR 2010.
Participating in SKN on OSCAR 2010 is easy. No rules, no scoring and
no need to send in a log. Just operate CW through any OSCAR between
0000 and 2400 UTC on 1 January 2010, using a straight hand key.
The AMSAT AO-51 Operations Group reminds everyone that AO-51
will be configured to support CW operations during the annual
Straight Key Night event. Participants may operate CW through
AO-51 between 0000 and 2400 UTC on 1 January 2010, using a
straight hand key.
AO-51 will be configured in the following mode during the event:
SSB/FM Repeater, V/U (CW QSOs only on Straight Key Night)
Uplink: 145.880 MHz USB
Downlink: 435.150 MHz FM
In keeping with the friendly nature of this event, all participants
are encouraged to nominate someone they worked for "Best Fist." Your
nominee need not have the best fist of those you heard, just of those
you worked. Please send your nomination to w2rs(a)amsat.org. A list of
those nominated will appear in ANS and The AMSAT Journal.

AMSAT-NA and the AO-51 Operations Group will sponsor Kid's Day on
AO-51 on January 3, 2010. The event is open to all kids, worldwide.
We ask all amateur radio stations to give this short time window to
promote satellite operations with kids, by actually showing a kid how
to make contacts via AO-51, providing a station to contact, or stepping
aside to allow others to make contacts with the kids. During the event,
please limit contacts to stations that are operating with kids at the
microphone. This should allow the kids to have a nice QSO and pass some
information. Kids can tell their name, age, who is helping them operate
on AO-51, where they live, and other information about themselves.
AO-51 will be configured in the following mode during the event.
Uplink: 145.880 MHz FM voice
Downlink: 435.300 MHz FM voice
See http://www.arrl.org/FandES/ead/kd-rules.html on the ARRL

ful launch of XW-1 and its subsequent designation as HO-68. This is a
significant milestone for both Amateur Radio and AMSAT-China. We are
very excited to see not only a new amateur satellite successfully
placed in service, but a new member of the AMSAT International family
establishing itself as well. Please let us know more about your organ-

(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 re-
peater 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-354.01
Amateur satellite operators worldwide have reported receiving strong
signals on the telemetry beacon of China's XW-1 satellite launched
on December 15, 2009.
The satellite is currently being commissioned but all three amateur
radio modes, which include an V/U FM repeater, V/U linear transponder,
and V/U AFSK packet, have been tested.
Michael Chen, BD5RV/4 reported, "I managed to operate the special
event station BT3WX to work several E2, BY, VR2, XX9 throughout an
evening pass of XW-1 using the FM transponder. It was the first open
test of this bird's transponder. Everything works just great!"
AFSK packets were active over Japan with JA0CAW receiving the down-
link on 435.675 MHz AFSK 1200bps.
JE1CVL, JH1EKH, BD4SY, JF2CTY, JH1BCL, JA5BLZ succeeded in a QSO over
Japan using the linear transponder in 'VHF(LSB) up and UHF (USB) Linear
Transponder Inverting on 145.950 MHz (Up) and 435.740 MHz (Down).
The XW-1 communications payload includes a beacon and three cross
band transponders operating in FM, linear, and digital modes.

AMSAT-NA and the AO-51 Operations Group will sponsor Kid's Day on
AO-51 on January 3, 2010. The event is open to all kids, worldwide.
We ask all amateur radio stations to give this short time window to
promote satellite operations with kids, by actually showing a kid how
to make contacts via AO-51, providing a station to contact, or stepping
aside to allow others to make contacts with the kids. During the event,
please limit contacts to stations that are operating with kids at the
microphone. This should allow the kids to have a nice QSO and pass some
information. Kids can tell their name, age, who is helping them operate
on AO-51, where they live, and other information about themselves.
AO-51 will be configured in the following mode during the event.

On 3 February 2006, cosmonaut Valery Ivanovich Tokarev hand launched
the Amateur Radio satellite SuitSat-1 from the ISS during an EVA
(Extra Vehicular Activity = Spacewalk).
SuitSat-1 was a very special Amateur Radio satellite. A discarded
Russian ORLAN Space Suit (in Russian a "Skafander") was equipped with
an Amateur Radio transmitter, which transmitted telemetry and
greetings from youngsters to the youth of the world in several
languages.
In 2010, an Amateur Radio satellite will once more be hand launched
from the International Space Station. It will be called ARISSat-1.
ARISSat-1 will again transmit messages recorded by students.
Moreover, teachers and students are invited to fly a file aboard this
amateur radio satellite.
The ARISSat-1 Team wishes to include on our new satellite a memory
stick of files prepared by students. This should be a jpg or pdf of
things the student has prepared such as a paper or a study done on a
STEM (science, technology, engineering, math) topic, a drawing of
space craft or a schematic, a journal kept on a STEM topic, a story
or news article about a STEM subject, a photo of the class doing a
hands-on STEM activity -- that type of thing.
Having the student's work be a part of ARISSat-1 means the student is
a part of the satellite project and along for the spacewalk and
deployment of ARISSat-1.
Readers of this Bulletin are invited to approach teachers and
students and draw their attention on this opportunity to participate
directly to a space flight for the honor of being part of space
activities.
Dave Jordan, AA4KN, will take delivery of these files and copy them
onto a memory stick. The quantity of files and the size of a file are
unlimited since memory sticks provide for a very large amount of file
space.
Files should be either .JPG or .PDF -- no Word documents, please.
Please send files to Dave Jordan's address -- <aa4kn(a)amsat.org>
He will look at all of them for content appropriate to students.
Files can be in any language as long as an English translation is
also included as a text file.
If the file contains sound recordings and/or photos or names of
persons, a "Talent Authorisation and Release" is requested. The
appropriate document can be downloaded from
http://www.rac.ca/ariss/Talent_Release.htm
The permission slip has to be signed by the student or his/her
guardian if the student is a minor.
The signed release form is to be mailed to:

NASA Revised EVA Schedule Affects ARISSat

BID: $ANS-354.05
NASA has informed AMSAT that the schedule of work for EVAs at the
International Space Station is being revised. The planned deploy-
ment of ARISSat-1 from the ISS is now being scheduled for either
Fall 2010 or early 2011 rather than Spring 2010.
This schedule adjustment also impacts when ARISSat-1 will be flown
to the Space Station with upload likely to take place sometime in
Summer 2010 rather than in January.
These revisions were made in response to new higher priority work
that must be done during the timeframe of the EVA that ARISSat-1
was originally scheduled in April 2010.
Overall, this revision helps ARISSat-1 because it provides additional
time for testing of the spacecraft. Furthermore, it also ensures
that the NASA Safety Review process for ARISSat-1 can be concluded
prior to shipment of the spacecraft to Russia.
The major items to complete for ARISSat are the IHU software, PSU
software, PSU testing and system testing. The structure is coming
together well and the team looks forward to providing an innovative
and reliable satellite this coming spring.

ESA and CNES to Fly Atomic Clock to ISS Columbus Module

>From AMSAT HQ SILVER SPRING, MD.
December 20, 2009
To All RADIO AMATEURS
BID: $ANS-354.07
The French space agency (CNES) and ESA have signed an agreement
that paves the way for the launch of a high-accuracy atomic clock
to be attached to the outside of the European Columbus laboratory
onboard the International Space Station (ISS).
The PHARAO (Projet d'Horloge Atomique par Refroidissement d'Atomes
en Orbite) atomic clock, which will be combined with another atomic
clock, the Space Hydrogen Maser (SHM), to form ESA's Atomic Clock
Ensemble in Space (ACES), will have an accuracy of 1x10-16, corres-
ponding to a time error of about one second over 300 million years.
This new generation of atomic clocks in space will be instrumental
in enabling accurate testing of Einstein's theory of general rela-
tivity. In addition, it will contribute to the accuracy and long-
term stability of global timescales, such as Coordinated Universal
Time (UTC). A dedicated microwave link will send the timing signal
to the ground.
The atomic clock is designed for launch in the unpressurised cargo
bay of the Japanese H-II Transfer Vehicle (HTV) or commercial SpaceX
carrier in the second half of 2013. Once in orbit, it will be attached
to Columbus' Earth-facing external payload platform using the Station
Robotic Arm.

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 re-
peater 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.

RADIO POLITICS: IARU SAYS TO GET READY FOR WRC-12
The next World Radiocommunications Conference takes place in January of
2012 and ham radio is making ready to face any challenges that it might
bring to the service.
The International Amateur Radio Union's Secretary is Rod Stafford,
W6ROD. He says that every IARU member society capable of doing so, should
take the initiative to be in contact with their own telecommunications
administration and let the it know what the Union's position is on those
agenda items that influence the amateur radio service.
The most significant of these so far are the implementation of the
radiolocation service in the range 30 to 300 MHz; the possible allocations
in the range 3 to 50 MHz to the radiolocation service for oceanographic
radar applications and the effect of emissions from short-range devices.
Also likely to be discussed is a ham radio allocation of about 15 kHz in
parts of the band from 415 to 526.5 kHz. This, on a secondary basis and
taking into account the need to protect existing services. (Southgate)

operate CW through any OSCAR satellite between 0000 and 2400 UTC
on January 1st 2010, using a straight hand key. There are no other rules,
no scoring and no need to send in a log.
In keeping with the friendly nature of this event, all participants are
encouraged to nominate someone they worked for "Best Fist" of those you
worked. Please send your nomination to w2rs(a)amsat.org. A list of those
nominated will appear in the Amsat News Service and will also be published

OSCAR-11 Makes Another Appearance
Clive G3CWV noted that UO-11 switched on again on December 10 after
about 15 days of silence. Heard in early December, UO-11 had been
silent for over a year. Good signals were received during daylight
passes for two days.
Clive would be interested in knowing whether anyone heard it, or
listened and did not hear it, between 11:25 UTC 11 December and
08:26 UTC 12 December.
Based on previous observations, it's probably worth listening for
it again in 10 to 20 days time, between 22 December and 01 January.

Amateur Radio on the International Space Station
(ARISS) Status Report December 7, 2009
1. Upcoming School Contact
An Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS)
contact was scheduled with Scuola Primaria De Gasperi in
Noicattaro, Bari, Italy on Saturday, December 12 at 09:11 UTC.
Lesson plans have covered amateur radio communications and space
missions. Newspapers, radio and television, both local and
regional, will report on the event.
2. Astronaut Training Status - Simulated Contact Scheduled
A simulated Amateur Radio on the International Space Station
(ARISS) contact was planned for Tuesday, December 8 at
approximately 14:45 UTC. The contact took place between Deer
Creek Elementary School in Bailey, Colorado and astronaut Tracy
Caldwell, KF5DBF. Audio was available on IRLP (Internet Radio
Linking Project). The training session is a terrestrial-
based amateur radio contact using ARISS equivalent equipment.
3. Successful ARISS Contact with Utah School
On Wednesday, December 2, students from Midvalley Elementary
School in Midvale, Utah participated in an Amateur Radio on
the International Space Station (ARISS) contact with Jeffrey
Williams, KD5TVQ. The school prepared for the contact using
NASA lesson plan resources and integrated the ARISS activity
into the school curriculum at many grade levels. Children
learned about amateur radio, electromagnetic waves and the
ISS and even viewed IMAX Space Station video. Nineteen
questions were answered during the nine minute pass. Approximately
200 students were present for the contact and others
listened in from their classrooms. Dr. David Doty (the school
district superintendent), school board members and district
directors were also present. Two major Salt Lake City newspapers,
the Salt Lake Tribune and the Deseret Morning News as well as
Channel 4 (ABC) television, Fox 13 and the local community
newspaper all covered the event. This was the first ARISS
contact for Utah.
4. ARISS-Brazil on Twitter
ARISS-Brazil is promoting ARISS events on its new Twitter site.
It provides an excellent opportunity to better understand what
the ARISS education program is. The site is in Portuguese:
http://twitter.com/arissbrazil
An ARISS-US member has also been posting ISS amateur radio
related items to a Twitter site. See: http://twitter.com/RF2Space

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 re-
peater 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 re-
peater 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.
