June 30, 2013 To All RADIO AMATEURS BID: $ANS-181.01 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ESA Education Office announce six CubeSats chosen for Phase 1 Initiative Six student teams and their supervisors have gathered at ESA's ESTEC centre in The Netherlands for the kick-off of the new Fly Your Satellite! Programme under the ESA Education Office. On June 26-28, ESA experts will introduce the objectives and present the activities to be performed during the first phase of the programme. In January, ESA's Education Office announced the 'Fly Your Satellite!' initiative. This is aimed at offering student teams the opportunity to become familiar with good engineering practice to build and perform satellite testing in order to increase the chances of a successful mission. The 2013 edition of the programme is however only focusing on testing selected university-built satellites that are already at an advanced stage of development. 'Fly Your Satellite!' builds on the success of the 'CubeSats for the Vega Maiden Flight' pilot programme. This culminated in 2012 with the launch of seven student-built CubeSats on the first flight of the new ESA Vega launcher. The focus of the kick-off meeting will consist of coordinating the activity to be performed during the first phase of Fly Your Satellite! enabling the teams to complete the construction of their satellite. This will include extensive satellite testing in ambient conditions under the supervision of ESA specialists who will decide which satellites should participate in the next phase of the programme. The second phase will see the satellites tested in the simulated conditions of outer space and in those the satellites will experience at launch. These will include vibration and thermal-vacuum tests. The six CubeSats chosen for Phase 1 are: Robusta-1B from France will validate a radiation test methodology for specific transistor components. Oufti-1 from Belgium will demonstrate the D-STAR digital communication protocol and validate high-efficiency solar cells. ConSat-1 from Canada will analyse radiation characteristics in the South-Atlantic Anomaly, and test technology payloads. e-st@r-II from Italy will test an Active-Attitude Determination Control System. AAUSAT4 from Denmark will test an improved version of student built AIS (Automated Identification System) receivers. Politech.1 from Spain will carry a student built C-band communication system, a "GEODEYE" Earth Observation camera for academic purposes, and solar wind experiments.

It will be preceded by a "Hands-on" CubeSat Workshop. This free workshop will take place at the nearby University of Surrey on Friday, July 19 and this will be followed, at the hotel, by the usual Colloquium "Beginners Session" in the late afternoon. It is anticipated that both the FUNcube-1 and FUNcube-2 missions will be launched later this year and the FUNcube team will be on hand to talk about the missions and the planned educational outreach. A full demonstration of the Engineering Model, which has been performing flawlessly for almost a year, will also be provided. Further details and booking information at http://amsat-uk.org/colloquium/colloquium-2013/ [ANS thanks Trevor, M5AKA for the above information] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Two Lithuanian Amateur Radio CubeSats Plan 2013 Launch To ISS It is hoped that two Lithuanian satellites will be among the CubeSats sent by Nanoracks LLC to the International Space Station (ISS) on the SpaceX CRS-3 mission in November, 2013. They will be deployed from the ISS by the JEM Small Satellite Orbital Deployer (J- SSOD) of the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA). The Kaunas University of Technology is developing LituanicaSAT-1 while the Lithuanian Space Federation is working on LitSat-1. 2013 is the 80th anniversary of the historic flight by Lithuanian pilots Steponas Darius and Stasys Gire.nas in the airplane Lituanica. On July 15, 1933, they took off from Floyd Bennett Field in New York and flew across the Atlantic Ocean, covering a distance of 6,411 kilometers without landing, in 37 hours and 11 minutes. Tragically they crashed by the village of Kuhdamm, near Soldin, Germany just 650 km from their destination of Kaunas in Lithuania. LituanicaSAT-1 plans to carry a VGA camera, GPS receiver, 9k6 AX25 FSK telemetry beacon and a 150 mW V/U FM voice transponder.

NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston will host a NASA Television briefing to preview the spacewalks at 2 p.m. EDT Tuesday, July 2. Reporters may attend the briefing at Johnson and other participating NASA centers, or ask questions by calling Johnson's newsroom at 281-483-5111 no later than 1:45 p.m. Tuesday. Briefers will include: -- David Korth, NASA spacewalk flight director -- Ernest Bell, Spacewalk 22 spacewalk officer -- Karina Eversley, Spacewalk 23 spacewalk officer Flight Engineers Chris Cassidy of NASA and Luca Parmitano of the European Space Agency will conduct the spacewalks July 9 and July 16 from the station's Quest airlock. Each spacewalk is scheduled to last 6 1/2 hours. Cassidy and Parmitano will replace a space-to-ground communications receiver and wireless video equipment and install power and cables for a Russian multipurpose laboratory module that will be launched later this year. The new module will serve as a research facility, docking port and airlock for future Russian spacewalks and will replace the Pirs module. Cassidy, who is designated EV1 for the spacewalks, will wear a U.S. extravehicular mobility suit bearing red stripes. The spacewalks will be the fifth and sixth of Cassidy's career. Parmitano, who is designated EV2, will wear a spacesuit with no stripes and will be making the first two spacewalks of his career. He will become the first Italian astronaut to walk in space. Both spacewalkers will wear helmet cameras to provide up close views of their work. NASA TV coverage of the spacewalks will begin at 7 a.m. on both July 9 and July 16. Both spacewalks are scheduled to begin at 8:10 a.m. For NASA TV streaming video, schedule and downlink information, visit: http://www.nasa.gov/ntv For more information about the International Space Station and its crew, visit: http://www.nasa.gov/station [ANS thanks NASA for the above information] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Upcoming ARISS contact with Scuola Secondaria grado "Arturo Toscanini", Capiago Intimiano, Italy and Scuola Media Massimiliano Kolbe, Vercurago, Lecco, Italy An International Space Station school contact has been planned with participants at Scuola Secondaria 1? grado "Arturo Toscanini", Capiago Intimiano, Italy and Scuola Media Massimiliano Kolbe, Vercurago, Lecco, Italy on 29 June.

AMSAT NEWS SERVICE ANS-167 The AMSAT News Service bulletins are a free, weekly news and infor- mation service of AMSAT North America, The Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation. ANS publishes news related to Amateur Radio in Space including reports on the activities of a worldwide group of Amateur Radio operators who share an active interest in designing, building, launching and communicating through analog and digital Amateur Radio satellites. The news feed on http://www.amsat.org publishes news of Amateur Radio in Space as soon as our volunteers can post it. Please send any amateur satellite news or reports to: ans-editor at amsat.org. In this edition: * HAM Video for the ISS Announced by ARISS * AMSAT Videos from Dayton Hamvention * AMSAT Area Coordinator Kevin Smith, N3HKQ, now SK * RECENT AMSAT AWARDS * Fox-2 MPPT Team Selected In TI Design Contest * AMSAT Field Day 2013 - One More Time * Wilse Morgan WX7P (ex-KL7CQ) SK * ARISS News * Satellite Shorts From All Over SB SAT @ AMSAT $ANS-167.01 ANS-167 AMSAT News Service Weekly Bulletins AMSAT News Service Bulletin 167.01 >From AMSAT HQ SILVER SPRING, MD. DATE June 16, 2013 To All RADIO AMATEURS BID: $ANS-167.01 HAM Video for the ISS Announced by ARISS ARISS-Europe Chairman Gaston Bertels, ON4WF has drafted an overview of a new "Ham Video" DATV downlink system on S-Band being developed for placement on the International Space Station later this year. The equipment is being developed by Kayser Italia under contract with the European Space Agency using a Canon XF-305 camera provided by NASA. The equipment is currently slated for deployment to the ISS on Japan Space Agency's HTV-4 in August 2013. HTV is Japan's H-II Transfer Vehicle for resupplying the International Space Station. Gaston's paper provides an overview of both the equipment that is being placed on the ISS as well as discusses ground station requirements. The ESA contract calls for Kayser Italia to provide five ground stations for placement in Europe that will be "chained" to provide overlapping video reception coverage, with the British Amateur Television Club (BATC) serving as a central server site for receiving video from these ground stations and making it freely available to others via the internet. It is hoped that amateurs will support other ground station "chains" in other countries as multiple stations are needed to provide up to 15 minutes of video in support of school contacts. Gaston's paper with block diagram and photographs of key components will be available soon on the AMSAT website (www.amsat.org).

He had successfully battled a blood disorder for several years, but was stricken Monday morning. Kevin was an AMSAT Area Coordinator for many years and co-chaired the team that hosted the 2007 AMSAT Symposium in Pittsburgh, PA. Prior to that, he was a key player in executing an ARISS contact from Upper St. Clair (PA) High School. An enthusiastic member of the Wireless Association of the South Hills (WASH) local club, Kevin was always upbeat and positive, and looked forward to the satellite contacts at Field Day, even after the loss of AO-13 and AO-40, and to VHF/UHF operating. He worked hard at the easy contacts, developing ingenious lightweight hand-held antennas and means of controlling two radios to make it all work for the one satellite contact. He moved on to the microwaves, building a 10 GHz kit when he could have bought the completed DownEast Microwave transverter, and was working on one of the W1GHZ transverters for 2.4 GHz. A few weekends ago, several WASH members did some work on his VHF/UHF antennas, and Kevin was looking forward to the VHF contest this past weekend. `He is known to have made at least one 2-meter QSO. Kevin is survived by his wife Peg, married son, Michael, and married daughter, Jen. His obituary may be found at, http://obituaries.triblive.com/listing/226203/Kevin-Smith/ In lieu of flowers, Kevin's family suggests memorial donations be made to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, the MDS Foundation, or to Be the Match.

Doug Papay, KD8CAO, #30 [ANS thanks Bruce, KK5DO, for the above information] --------------------------------------------------------------------- Fox-2 MPPT Team Selected In TI Design Contest AMSAT sponsored a senior design project at the Rochester Institute of Technology this academic year. The students included senior EE majors: Bryce Salmi KB1LQC Brent Salmi KB1LQD Ian MacKenzie KB3OCF and Dan Corriero. The project was to develop an MPPT circuit that could be used on a future Fox-2 (3U) CubeSat. The students completed a working prototype which was on display in our engineering booth at Dayton last month. With my agreement and encouragement, the students entered this project into Texas Instruments' 2013 Analog Design Contest for university students. See: http://tinyurl.com/mf6nzhr I am happy to pass along the great news that the AMSAT MPPT project was selected as one of the top 10 semi-finalists and the students were invited on an all-expenses paid trip to TI's contest summit to be held July 21-23 in Dallas where the final winners will be announced. Congratulations to the Fox-2 MPPT team! [ANS thanks Tony AA2TX for the above information] --------------------------------------------------------------------- AMSAT Dayton Volunteers Thanked / Asked for Feedback First and most important, I want to thank each of you for your assistance at the 2013 Dayton Hamvention. I'm thrilled with our presence at Dayton this year. In my opinion, it went well because of the efforts of the 40+ volunteers who assisted in so many different ways. You made a difference. As I'm wrapping up my Dayton notes, I'm looking for suggestions. How can AMSAT make our presence next year at Dayton more effective? Was there anything we did that made things more difficult for the hams who stopped at the booth? What can we do to attract more potential members and communicate the excitement we feel about building, launching, and operating satellites? Thanks again for all of your help. It was truly a privilege working with you! 73,Steve N9IP Contact Dave with your feedback - seb at wintek dot com [ANS thanks Steve N9IP for the above information] --------------------------------------------------------------------- AMSAT Field Day 2013 - One More Time Every year AMSAT promotes a satellite version of Field Day during the ARRL annual operating event which is held on the 4^th weekend in June. This year Field Day will take place from 1800 UTC on Saturday June 22, 2013 through 2100 UTC on Sunday June 23, 2013. SaudiSat-Oscar-50 will be the only operational FM transponder satellite this year. If you are considering only FM voice operating for your AMSAT Field Day focus the single uplink/downlink channel will be extremely challenging. As in prior years, this intense congestion on FM LEO satellites drives the limitation in the rules allowing their use to one-QSO-per-FM-satellite. This includes the International Space Station. You will be allowed one QSO if the ISS is operating Voice. You will also be allowed one digital QSO with the ISS or any other digital, non-store-and-forward, packet satellite (if operational). If you have worked the satellites on Field Day in recent years, you may have noticed a lot of good contacts can be made on the linear transponder satellites including VO-52, FO-29, and AO-7. During Field Day the transponders come alive like 20 meters on a weekend. The transponders on these satellites will support multiple simultaneous SSB or CW contacts. The AMSAT Field Day 2013 event is open to all Amateur Radio operators. Amateurs are to use the exchange as specified in ARRL rules for Field Day. The AMSAT competition is to encourage the use of all amateur satellites, both analog and digital. For the complete listing of the AMSAT Field Day Rules please refer to the documents posted on-line at: http://www.amsatnet.com/2013fd.docx http://www.amsatnet.com/2013fd.pdf [ANS thanks AMSAT Director Contests and Awards, Bruce Paige, KK5DO for the above information] --------------------------------------------------------------------- Wilse Morgan WX7P (ex-KL7CQ) SK Wilse Morgan, WX7P (formerly KL7CQ) passed away June 13 in Rice, Washington. He is survived by his wife, Gimmie AL7LB. An ARRL Life Member, Wilse was an Assistant Section Manager for Eastern Washington and was very active on satellites, PSK31, DXing and contesting. In 2009 he was inducted into the CQ Amateur Radio Hall of Fame. During his 20 year tenure in Alaska as KL7CQ, he taught courses in Amateur Radio at the University of Alaska and at Anchorage Community College, graduating more than 800 licensed hams. As a Volunteer Examiner, Wilse was involved in the very first VEC exam in the nation and was the first VE certified by the local FCC office in Anchorage.

Cassidy, KF5KDR, on 08 June. The event began at 19:55 UTC. The duration of the contact was approximately 9 minutes and 30 seconds. The contact was telebridged between NA1SS and VK4KHZ. The contact was audible over portions of Australia and adjacent areas. The contact was conducted in English. Astronomy Camp is a week-long residential program held at Kitt Peak National Observatory and the Catalina Observatories near Tucson, Arizona. Several thousand teenagers from 49 states and 20 countries have attended the program since 1988, participating in an informal education program involving hands-on activities in astronomy and related subjects. The camp also operates workshops for adult leaders in Girl Scouts, USA. The ARISS contact dovetails well with the camp's projects involving radio astronomy. The students engage in experiments with electromagnetic energy, construct crystal radios, and tour the radio telescope facilities at Kitt Peak, including climbing into the antenna structure.

AMSAT NEWS SERVICE ANS-160 The AMSAT News Service bulletins are a free, weekly news and infor- mation service of AMSAT North America, The Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation. ANS publishes news related to Amateur Radio in Space including reports on the activities of a worldwide group of Amateur Radio operators who share an active interest in designing, building, launching and communicating through analog and digital Amateur Radio satellites. The news feed on http://www.amsat.org publishes news of Amateur Radio in Space as soon as our volunteers can post it. Please send any amateur satellite news or reports to: ans-editor at amsat.org <http://amsat.org>. In this edition: * Fox-1 Receives IARU Frequency Coordination Letter * _Reminder_: Deadline for AMSAT-NA Board of Directors Nominations Approaching * AMSAT Field Day 2013 * AMSAT Online Satellite Pass Predictions Webpage Restored * 2013 Dayton Hamvention AMSAT Forum Presentations Now on YouTube.com * New Video on Ham Radio Satellite SO-50 on FM handheld * South Africa Radio Amateur of the Year Awards 2013 Nominations Closes June 10 SB SAT @ AMSAT $ANS-160.01 ANS-160 AMSAT News Service Weekly Bulletins AMSAT News Service Bulletin 160.01 From AMSAT HQ SILVER SPRING, MD. June 9, 2013 To All RADIO AMATEURS BID: $ANS-160.01 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Fox-1 Receives IARU Frequency Coordination Letter On June 4 the International Amateur Radio Union (IARU) Amateur Satellite Frequency Coordination Board accepted the following frequencies for our AMSAT Fox-1 cubesat: + 435.180 MHz Uplink + 145.980 MHz Downlink Fox-1 will serve as a communications relay for amateurs worldwide via the onboard FM repeater system. Fox-1 is currently scheduled to launch into a 470 x 780 km at 64 degrees inclination orbit from Vandenburg during 2014 on the NASA ElanaXII mission with ARC1, BisonSat, Lightsail & R2S(NEO). The Fox-1 Engineering Team will deliver the satellite for integration with the launch vehicle during May, 2014 with the launch scheduled for November, 2014. The Fox cubesats are designed to host advanced science payloads to support future science missions that help us to continue qualify for NASA ELaNa (free) launches. President Barry Baines says, "AMSAT's focus on STEM education and development of a cubesat platform capable of flying a science mission with a reliable communications link resulted in the selection of Fox-1 in the third round and RadFxSat (Fox-1B) in the fourth round of NASA's Cubesat Launch Initiative." The Fox-1 satellite will include a space radiation experiment from Vanderbilt University and a JPEG Digital Camera from Virginia Tech. The Vanderbilt Low Energy Proton experiment will detect single-event upsets in memory devices and will operate all the time. The experiment data will be downlinked with the satellite telemetry. The camera will operate when the satellite is in the high-speed digital data mode and will take one photo each minute. Watch the AMSAT Journal, the AMSAT web site (http://www.amsat.org) and the AMSAT News Service for more details to follow. [ANS thanks the Fox-1 Team for the above information] --------------------------------------------------------------------- _Reminder_ Deadline for AMSAT-NA Board of Directors Nominations Approaching It is time to submit nominations for the upcoming open seats on the AMSAT-NA Board of Directors. A nomination requires either one Member Society or five current individual members in good standing to nominate an AMSAT member for the position. Four director's terms expire this year: Barry Baines, WD4ASW, Alan Biddle, WA4SCA, Drew Glasbrenner, K04MA, and Tony Monteiro, AA2TX. In addition to traditional submission of written nominations, which remains unchanged and is the preferred method, nominations may be made by electronic means. These include e-mail, FAX, or electronic image of a petition. Electronic petitions should be sent to MARTHA at AMSAT.ORG <http://AMSAT.ORG> or faxed to 301-608-3410. Written nominations, consisting of names, calls and individual sig- natures should be mailed to: AMSAT-NA 850 Sligo Ave #600 Silver Spring, MD, 20910 No matter what means is used, petitions MUST arrive no later than June 15th at the AMSAT-NA office. If the nomination is a traditional written nomination, no other action is required. If it is other than this, i.e. electronic, a verifying traditional written petition MUST be received at the AMSAT-NA office at the above address within 7 days following the close of nominations on June 15th. ELECTRONIC SUBMISSIONS WITHOUT THIS SECOND, WRITTEN VERIFICATION ARE NOT VALID UNDER THE EXISTING AMSAT-NA BYLAWS. [ANS thanks the AMSAT Office for the above information] --------------------------------------------------------------------- AMSAT Field Day 2013 Every year AMSAT promotes a satellite version of Field Day during the ARRL annual operating event which is held on the 4^th weekend in June. This year Field Day will take place from 1800 UTC on Saturday June 22, 2013 through 2100 UTC on Sunday June 23, 2013. SaudiSat-Oscar-50 will be the only operational FM transponder satellite this year. If you are considering only FM voice operating for your AMSAT Field Day focus the single uplink/downlink channel will be extremely challenging. As in prior years, this intense congestion on FM LEO satellites drives the limitation in the rules allowing their use to one-QSO-per-FM-satellite. This includes the International Space Station. You will be allowed one QSO if the ISS is operating Voice. You will also be allowed one digital QSO with the ISS or any other digital, non-store-and-forward, packet satellite (if operational). If you have worked the satellites on Field Day in recent years, you may have noticed a lot of good contacts can be made on the linear transponder satellites including VO-52, FO-29, and AO-7. During Field Day the transponders come alive like 20 meters on a weekend. The transponders on these satellites will support multiple simultaneous SSB or CW contacts. The AMSAT Field Day 2013 event is open to all Amateur Radio operators. Amateurs are to use the exchange as specified in ARRL rules for Field Day. The AMSAT competition is to encourage the use of all amateur satellites, both analog and digital. For the complete listing of the AMSAT Field Day Rules please refer to the documents posted on-line at: ·http://www.amsatnet.com/2013fd.docx ·http://www.amsatnet.com/2013fd.pdf [ANS thanks AMSAT Director Contests and Awards, Bruce Paige, KK5DO for the above information] --------------------------------------------------------------------- AMSAT Online Satellite Pass Predictions Webpage Restored A favorite feature of the AMSAT website has been restored. The AMSAT Online Satellite Pass Predictions Webpage back on AMSAT's webpage.
