Please join us in listening to the ISS contact with participants at the
Scout Canada Jamboree 2013, Sylvan Lake, Alberta, Canada on Monday July 8th. AOS is anticipated at approximately 1631 UTC.
The duration of the contact is approximately 9 minutes and 30 seconds. The contact will be a telebridge between NA1SS and VK5ZAI in South Australia. The contact should be audible over the Pacific and west coast of the U.S. Interested parties are invited to listen in on the 145.80 MHz downlink. The contact is expected to be conducted in English.
CJ’13 is a gathering of up to 6500 youth, leaders and volunteers in Sylvan Lake, Alberta from July 6-13. This is the largest gathering of scouts in Canada. CJ’13 will bring people from across the country and around the world together for the ultimate scouting experience. Scouts will share friendship and adventure while experiencing personal development that only a jamboree experience can bring. Scouts will hike near glaciers, dig for bones, learn about the challenges of space exploration, raid a castle, and dive for buried treasure. The week promises to be one scouts will never forget!
Audio from this contact will be fed into the:
EchoLink *AMSAT* (101377) and *JK1ZRW* (277208) servers
IRLP Node 9010 Discovery Reflector
Streaming Audio at: https://sites.google.com/site/arissaudio/
Audio on Echolink & web stream is generally transmitted around 20 minutes prior to the contact taking place so that you can hear some of the preparation that occurs. IRLP will begin just prior to the ground station call to the ISS.
Please note that on Echolink there are automatic breaks of 1.5 seconds in the audio transmission. These occur every 2.5 minutes during the event. Breaks on IRLP are manual and occur approximately after every third question.
** Contact times are approximate. If the ISS executes a reboost or other maneuver, the AOS (Acquisition Of Signal) time may alter by a few minutes **
