For the beginner and budget-limited, verticals work well. They have a higher noise-level and wo n't DX as well. But while learning to handle doppler you don't want to divert brai n-power to moving the beam also. Beams and rotors cost a lot more also. I worked RS-10 for 1-1/2 years with verticals. Now I have beams, both AZ & EL types, and find the plain old horizontal beam works fine without the need for a third hand to cont rol the rotors.

There are no ads or descriptions in any of the recent Ham magazines. Does anyone know if cables for interface to the G-5400B rotors and the FT736 transceiver are included with the package? The system is described as a stand alone box that does not require computer interface. Does this mean that the Keps have to be loaded somehow by hand? Could the box be interfaced to the computer to load the Keps file? Any information about this or similar devices would be useful.

I was asked by a local professor to carry the launch of the X-Ray telescope, Dr.Lamb. As he helped build the thing and wanted to see it go off last week. We carried the signal, but I was told all they had up was bars. As I was asleep during the launch, our computer switched over to NASA during the launch window and 90min's after. I have not talked to Dr.Lamb since I spoke to him the night before the launch. So I don't even know if the thing went up. In fact the last launch attempt got on national news because it's been halted so many times and also because one of the people said a four letter word. It's too bad that it was not shown if it went up. My thoughts are that the goverment shutdown has something to do with it. As Dr.Lamb tried to get press material for us to edit into an interview with him. But no one answred the phone.. So that never worked out. My only thing with the bars is that, it would cost money to air anything on a sat. Costs the same with bars and without. So why not turn off the transmitter and lease out the transponder? Also don't you need someone to monitor the transmitter all the time? That would be a boring one to watch. -Marcus Damberger / N9RZE Amateur Radio From Unknown Fri Jan 05 12:29:53 1996 Path: news.epix.net!news.sprintlink.net!cs.utexas.edu!news.tamu.edu!news.mty.itesm.mx!academ07.mty.itesm.mx!fjorozco From: XE2MXU/N5UHB Newsgroups: rec.radio.amateur.space,sci.space.shuttle Subject: David Ransom's address?

A reliable source has told me that the Japanese Space Flyer Unit (SFU) has had some problems, so the shuttle will almost certainly have to use a different rendezvous profile to reach SFU. This will certainly require more propellant. And the OAST-FLYER's flight plan will probably change. It may be as simple as a higher orbit, but probably will involve some shifting of the orbital plane for the freeflight period. Preliminary elements are excellent for calculating the lengths of passes, look angles, and to a lesser degree adequate for calculating sun angles and lighting conditions. But always rely on the true post-launch keps whenever possible. (I did run the above keps, and it turns out I've got nine excellent passes for the predicted time. But all in the middle of the night. Now if I can only delay the mission long enough for SFU's orbit to precess in to daylight passes ....)

Sometimes other TV video carriers are selected. Antenna: dipole with reflector, direction east. Frequency 1: 59.250 MHz, SSB mode, 150 kW TV video carrier in Bucaresti, distance 950 km, east. Frequency 2: 48.246 Mhz, SSB mode, 100 kW TV video carrier Location Germany, distance 550 km, northwest. Dipole used alternating with frequency 1. Receivers: Several, incl. homemade converter. AGC enabled. No preamplifiers. Observing method: the audio signal is fed into a real time FFT display (FFTDSP program from AF9Y) on the PC where 640 channels of 2Hz width are recorded and stored continuously. Every meteor reflection produces a distinct whistle, which is recorded easily by the real time FFT program. From the saved .GIF files, reflections of at least 15 seconds are taken to get the one hour intervals count starting at UT: The following figures give information about the total length of the meteor reflections during one hour, expressed in percentage of time.

ABOUT THE RMOB The RMOB is an independent initiative of some workers in the field of radio meteor scatter observations and data reduction. It started in August 1993 in order to spread rapidly the Perseid results via E-mail. Since then, it has appeared monthly, and has gradually been expanded. Typically it contains: summaries of recent observations, first results of stream activity by radio methods, relations between radio and optical meteors, references to other publications in the field of meteor astronomy and radio scatter techniques, announcements of meetings, short questions and answers, non-commercial (second hand) sale of radio equipment, available software. Contributors are mentioned, and interested persons are asked to contact them directly. RMOB can be copied freely in unabridged and unmodified form. Extracts should indicate the source (Radio Meteor Obs Bulletin, month and year). If you want to subscribe (or unsubscribe) to the E-mail distribution list, please send a message to C. Steyaert. Those not having access to E-mail can obtain a printed copy free of charge from J. Van Wassenhove (current or back-issues). 3.

It is published every week and is made available for unlimited free distribution. * MIR NEWS * ============ The cosmonauts on the Russian space station Mir have unpacked their new Amateur Radio equipment and are expected to place it on the air shortly. The new equipment includes a 70-cm FM transceiver along with some 9600 baud packet radio equipment. * RS-15 NEWS * ============== G3IOR reports that RS-15's nighttime performance has changed. The transponder now remains ON for 1 second and OFF for 10 seconds during eclipse periods. RS-15 was seeing 36 minutes of eclipse each orbit during late December giving a battery charge efficiency of just 72%. The eclipse commences when the southbound satellite reaches 58N, continuing until it comes into sunlight again at 25S. The transponder and beacon become intermittent after RS-15 has been in eclipse for 5 minutes, when the battery drops to 12v DC. By 14th January, RS-15 will see 28 minutes of eclipse, going down to 20 minutes (85% charge efficiency) on 20th January, and 16 minutes (91%) on 22nd January. On 23rd January the satellite sees 100% sunlight again, and should give 24 hour/day operation again. Dave G4CUO and John G4ZHG have now worked via RS-15 all US states other than New Mexico, Delaware, Mississippi, Alabama and of course Hawaii. While the latter poses a problem, Dave would like to complete WAS of all mainland states and is regularly looking for USA contacts in the US evening periods between 0000 and 0300 UTC. * PRC-37 NEWS * =============== PRC-37, also known as 'JIANBING-93' is reputed to be the return package of a photo and radio 'spy-sat' that is due to re-enter in early 1996. Apparently the retro-rocket firing accidentally placed it into a highly elliptical orbit with a rather low perigee. It is designed for re-entry, and as the parachute is unlikely to deploy, will probably impact. Current studies show the 990 km apogee to be at 52N, and the 153 km perigee at 52S. No beacon frequency is known. Orbital enthusiasts may wish to study the re-entry as a precursor to the following of the demise of OSCAR-13, as few have had experience with elliptical orbiter return. No 'Chicken Little' contest has evolved to date! Here are a late 2-line Kep-Set:- JIANBING-93 P/L(1) 1 22870U 93063H 95335.24898568 .00304666 82639-5 20323-3 0 3248 2 22870 56.4566 96.6266 0604138 229.7187 124.9507 14.94537215 2456 [Info via Pat Gowen, G3IOR] * DOVE NEWS * ============= DOVE-OSCAR-17 returned to the 2-meter band sooner than expected after its recent on-board computer (OBC) crash only to experience another OBC crash on 29-Dec-95 at 0500 UTC while reloading new operating software. Normally, the 2-meter beacon transmitter switches OFF and the S-band beacon switches ON when the OBC crashes. A hardware failure on the satellite makes software upload very difficult and risky. This most recent crash came unexpectedly, and will require investigation. Recently copied DO-17 telemetry should be forwarded to Jim White, WD0E at his e-mail address: wd0e@amsat.org. * SpaceNews NEWS * ================== A compressed (ZIP) archive of all 1995 issues of SpaceNews are available via anonymous FTP at pilot.njin.net in the pub/SpaceNews subdirectory.

Unforutnatly, it is not likely to do the DSP functions you want. Using DMA, which is the only reasonable way to operate an SB, it is only half duplex - you can either record or playback digital data, not both at once which would be required for real time processing.

I don't even bother to use satellite tracking programs for MIR any more, I just put 145.55 simplex into my 2 meter mobile and remote base memories and add it to the scanning lists. Several times a day I'll hear the packet buzzing away and with simple packet equipment I've contacted the MIR system several times but rarely have gotten more than the successful connect or a busy (DM) signal from the MIR TNC. A "busy" signal is actually, to me, a successful 2-way packet contact especially if you compare it to the usual USA SAREX policy of hoping to someday see your callsign in a published "stations heard" list. If you get a busy signal from MIR (very likely) it proves MIR has successfully heard you and you have successfully heard MIR. Full callsign exchanges and all: a legit 2-way contact. But confirming it may be a problem. Voice operation seems to be getting rarer and rarer from MIR but the cosmonauts still pop up on voice unexpectedly from time to time. I have called them repeatedly with high and low power without success but there are at least several local stations in Northern New Mexico who have successfully QSO'ed with MIR using 10 watts or less into omnidirectional outside antennas. -- |-------------------------------------------------------| |Jim Devenport WB5AOX | |All Standard Disclaimers Disclaimed | |My views rarely (if ever) reflect those of my employers| |-------------------------------------------------------| From lwbyppp@epix.net Fri Jan 12 14:15:54 1996 Path: news.epix.net!news.sprintlink.net!howland.reston.ans.net!gatech!hookup!news.nstn.ca!coranto.ucs.mun.ca!pc From: ppiercey@nlnet.nf.ca (Paul J.

Rob, Where would one find info on these mods. I have 2 G-5400s. The one has been on a 50' tower with an OSCAR 13 antenna setup. So far no problems and it's been there for several years. The other will be for 1.7 GHz feed on a 1 meter dish for weather satellite (HRPT) reception. It would be great if I could improve the pointing accuracy. Thanks!

It depends on your local weather, and the pointing accuracy that you desire. For 2m and 70cm the Yaesu G-5400 and G-5600 are OK, but they are known to fail after extended periods of coverage to moisture.

The fact that the noise peaks inside the band of interest is normal if the antenna is tuned correctly. The impedance will match best at the frequency where the VSWR is at minimum, which should be in the middle of the band. I could barely detect any signal from AO-10 or AO-13 on an optimum pass when listening with a dual band vertical, a two meter ground plane, or a discone antenna. What you are describing is normal for an urban noise environment. I don't think I could hear any satellites on 2M if the power lines here weren't buried. I use a linear polarized 11 el long (22 ft) 2M antennal for satellite reception. If you can, use a circular polarized ant with polarization switching for best results. Hope this helps.

No such luck, it's plain old ordinary cable TV leakage. Cable channel 18 is right smack in the middle of our band. Complaints about interference to amateur operations usually fall on deaf ears at the cable company. But if you tell them they're interfering with your listening to aircraft traffic on your scanner, cable trucks will be scrambling around your neighborhood looking for the leak. The FCC isn't willing to give us any protection, but they still get serious with cable systems interfering with aircraft frequencies. They recently shut one cable system down for excessive leakage that was interfering with aircraft. That's big bucks lost, so cable systems get serious when they get a report of leakage heard in the aircraft band, and of course, a leak is a leak, and spills Ch 18 into our bands just the same as it spills another channel onto the aircraft frequencies.

Digikey, Mouser, etc. all carry industrial-grade ic's - you'll probably have to contact the manufacturer to find sources for military-grade.

The digital voice module also has failed, so there will be no more automatic voice recordings in the near future. Reiter reports all four fuses in the two connected transceivers have blown and only two spare fuses remain. Last month, Reiter used the digital voice recorder, built by Thomas Kieselbach, DL2MDE, to broadcast holiday messages. The primary transmitting frequency is 145.800 MHz. Recently, the cosmonauts on Mir unpacked new Amateur Radio equipment delivered by rocket, including a 70-cm FM transceiver and 9600-baud packet gear. Reiter was philosophical. ''Well, at least we can be reached and still can talk with the world,'' he said in a message to Dave Larsen, N6JLH.

This freq. is also used for packet-radio up and downlink. But the crew is often heard on other frequencies (145.800, 145.850) and in ocasions (like EUROMIR) using duplex. UHF (voice and 9600 pk) activity is expected also. If you look for non-amateur frequencies, the most used is 143.620. But there are reports of MIR activity between 165.870 and 166.155 (165.870, 166.122, 166.130 and 166.140 are popular). If you can, check also the 900MHz band (between 922-926) Try 922.755MHz A very reliable source is Chris van den Berg reports. I don't know if they are avaliable via Internet, but you can read them on OSCAR NEWS, AMSAT-UK journal.

In nearly all cases, the only difference between the commercial and military parts is the level of testing, with military parts actually tested for the specified parameters. Commercial grade parts come from the same assembly line, but are less expensive due to the limited testing they receive (basically functional testing at ambient temperature). In a cost savings move, the government has gone away from requiring "military grade" in most (all?) applications, since they all perform the same anyway. In trully critical applications; either certified parts are specified (tested fully against all parameters), or the sub-contractor will buy commercial grade parts and test the themselves for whatever parameters are critical for their application (temperature, pulse rise time, etc..

Well, the other difference is the packaging: the military parts use expensive hermetically-sealed ceramic packages, while the commercial parts use plastic packages, because of the different temperature ranges envisioned for their use. The plastic packages can't hold a hermetic seal if they are temperature-cycled too drastically. The military actually has been known to use plastic packages in some situations. There was a Vietnam-era incident where proximity fuzes which had worked fine in Vietnam were showing a high failure rate in peacetime use afterwards. Turned out that the problem was plastic IC packages. They were fine when the fuzes went straight from the factory onto a plane for Vietnam, but less satisfactory when the fuzes sat in an unheated warehouse for a couple of years before use.

It looks well made. I'd go for the newer version -138 vs -137 or something that allows diode switching the crystals and has a more stable double sided PC board. From what I have read, you really need a 40 kHz bandpass or so to get a good clean signal without distortion. The directions are good and there is tune up info.

This terminal provides an RS-232C data port operating at 4800 bps and the literature claims it can be used with any data communications software. What I need to know is if one can run TCP/IP using SLIP or PPP over such a link without problems ? Note: the MSAT satellite is geostationary and would present a 300 odd msec. propagation delay It is connected to the terrestial phone system through a gateway. If not, what other protocol could be used for Internet access and ftp file transfers ?

Literally, bandwidth is the amount of electromagnetic spectrum occupied by a signal. It is directly related to the rate of information being carried by that signal. An unmodulated signal carries no information, and occupies (theoretically) zero bandwidth. A frequency-shift modulation signal with 1000 bits per second of data occupies (theoretically) 1000 Hz of bandwidth. NTSC broadcast TV signals are 6 MHz "wide". "More bandwidth" means faster information transfer. Each bit still takes the same amount of time to get from "here" to "there", but you can fit more bits in, either simultaneously or closer together. It's like a wider road; each car still travels at (theoretically) 60 MPH, but more cars can go by each second. = === === === = = = === === === === = = === = = = === = = === = # Alan Anderson # Ignorance can be fixed, but stupidity is permanent. # (I do not speak for Delco Electronics, and DE does not speak for me.)

Is this the equivalent of "Need >a bigger hammer!"? The more complicated the answer the better. Any modulated signal is a product of the carrier and the modulating waveform (the information or intelligence the signal carries). A plain carrier has a line spectrum, IE it only has energy at one frequency (ideally), but a modulated carrier has a spectrum that is spread around the carrier line spectrum, and it consists of all the products of the carrier and the modulating wave. The finite chunk of spectrum occupied is called the bandwidth of the signal. The more intelligence the modulating waveform contains, the more complex this waveform must be, and the more bandwidth the signal will require. This is a highly simplified explanation because I don't feel like typing in all the equations using an ASCII editor that won't do them justice. Shannon's information theorem is involved, and the equations describing the various forms of modulation are involved. Consult a good textbook for all that.

I am currently using(yes I know thi isnot the "right" way to do it) a Pro2004 in the wideband mode. The BW is way to wide, but I get pretty good pix. I have a crossed dipole up 40' wiht an older(ancient) Vangard JFET preamp. I have been tinkering with a comercial Sienhieser wireless microhone receiver. While it has a better noise floor and the proper bw (about 38Kc with gentle skirt out another 5 or 6kc then real step), it is prone to im(busness band and ham nbfm) and aircraft trafic down around 120MHz. I was forced to go back to the Pro2004. I have been thinking about the Hmatronics receiver. Has anyone compared the "performance" of a cross dipole/turnstill with the "eggbeater"? Does the Eggbeater have a narrower bw? Narrowed bw might help my "out of band" interferrence problems.

Last year I and others tried to work a station who we could just barely hear I listened to others who attempted to work that staion with little luck. That station could not hear them . Their signals on the downlink side were 4-4 and right up there with the beacon. that station could not hear then. I doubt if he could even copy his own dowlink signal Another station came up I'll bet he was at leat 8 - 12 db stronger than the beacon since he was about 3 s-units more than the beacon was He made his contact and then that was all he could do was brag to the other station about how good he was :-> needles to say I then let him know about his bad operating practice !

TCP/IP via geostationary comsat has been done quite extensively in the past, and if you dig a bit in the literature, you should find quite a bit of detail. If (rather dim) memory serves, it works tolerably well but you need some careful attention to tuning parameters -- such a link is very different from the links most straight-out-of-the-box TCPs are tuned for. There are some limits on what can be done; the long round-trip time badly hurts high-level protocols that run in stop-and-wait lockstep, and there are rather a lot of those. -- The Earth is our mother. | Henry Spencer Our nine months are up... | henry@zoo.toronto.edu From lwbyppp@epix.net Mon Feb 05 21:30:44 1996 Path: news.epix.net!news.sprintlink.net!news.magicnet.net!news.supernet.net!nntp.cntfl.com!usenet From: Jleikhim@nettally.com (Joe Leikhim) Newsgroups: rec.radio.amateur.space,alt.radio.digital,alt.radio.scanner,alt.radio.pirate,talk.politics.guns Subject: Re: TSCM Counter Surveillance & Technical Security Page Date: Mon, 29 Jan 1996 00:39:56 GMT Organization: CMDS News machine Lines: 19 Message-ID: <4eh56o$evj@server.cntfl.com> References: <4dr4pv$k8v@news2.deltanet.com> <4dsrh5$nj3@fcnews.fc.hp.com> <4e5obn$i11@ixnews6.ix.netcom.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: dns78.nettally.com X-Newsreader: Forte Free Agent 1.0.82 Xref: news.epix.net rec.radio.amateur.space:6249 alt.radio.digital:1461 alt.radio.scanner:27123 alt.radio.pirate:13343 talk.politics.guns:303471 towarth@ix.netcom.com(Todd Warth ) wrote: >>In asi@escape.ca writes: >> >>The only problem is, you really have to search your building every day >>to make sure that no bugs are around.

Not really. Although the frequencies seem the same, the modulation is completely different. The TV satellites use FM, with a bandwidth of 36 mHz. ATV uses VSB, with a bandwidth of about 6 mHz. The two systems are, therefore, incompatible unless the ATV users are trying out FM, which is not popular due to the bandwidth. You are far better off getting a separate system for your ATV. -- From Bill, n7ryw@teleport.com Amsat NA Life Member #2109 From lwbyppp@epix.net Mon Feb 05 21:30:48 1996 Path: news.epix.net!news.sprintlink.net!news.voicenet.com!netnews.upenn.edu!dsinc!newsfeed.pitt.edu!gatech!newsfeed.internetmci.com!netnews.nwnet.net!news.seattleu.edu!news.seattleu.edu!not-for-mail From: pklein@news.seattleu.edu (Peter A.

Absolutely not. Basically the person with the strongest uplink wins at the expense of everyone else. Although the transponders may be 100-200 kHz wide, they have a fixed power budget and operate in a linear fashion. As a result several strong signals would dominate the transponder and push everyone else's signals into the mud.

So having a try using the sat-receiver for 23 cm FM-receiption could be successfull. Due to the different used bandwidths (36 MHz commercial, 12 MHz ham-radio) the results will be worse than with special ham-radio equipment. But some receivers have an option of adjusting the bandwidth. Additionally the sensitivity of sat-receivers is very low. So you'll need a low-noise, high-gain pre-amp (> 40 dB gain) for the amateur-radio band. Concerning frequencies and material support I'm unfortunately not able to give any hint, because I'm satellite-operator and no ATV-ham. 73, Frank FSperber@aol.com From lwbyppp@epix.net Mon Feb 05 21:31:02 1996 Path: news.epix.net!news.sprintlink.net!braintree!news.concourse.com!ragnarok.oar.net!malgudi.oar.net!rclnews.eng.ohio-state.edu!magnus.acs.ohio-state.edu!math.ohio-state.edu!uwm.edu!newsfeed.internetmci.com!btnet!news.easynet.co.uk!demon!mail2news.demon.co.uk!g4kfk.demon.co.uk From: Mike Gathergood Newsgroups: rec.radio.amateur.space,uk.radio.amateur,alt.radio.digital,alt.radio.scanner,alt.radio.pirate,alt.radio.scanner.uk,alt.radio.uk,talk.politics.guns,alt.hacker,comp.security.firewalls Subject: Re: TSCM Counter Surveillance & Technical Security Page Date: Wed, 31 Jan 96 12:47:05 GMT Organization: CQ-BBS +44 1753 595468 Lines: 16 Message-ID: <823092425snz@g4kfk.demon.co.uk> References: Reply-To: Mike@g4kfk.demon.co.uk X-NNTP-Posting-Host: g4kfk.demon.co.uk X-Newsreader: Demon Internet Simple News v1.29 X-Mail2News-Path: relay-4.mail.demon.net!post.demon.co.uk!g4kfk.demon.co.uk Xref: news.epix.net rec.radio.amateur.space:6231 uk.radio.amateur:10409 alt.radio.digital:1457 alt.radio.scanner:27052 alt.radio.pirate:13327 alt.radio.scanner.uk:2067 alt.radio.uk:5355 talk.politics.guns:303110 alt.hacker:4995 comp.security.firewalls:1396 In article jmatk@tscm.com "James M.

While this is true, it is also worth pointing out that TCP over SLIP/PPP, even via terrestrial links, already encounters fairly long round trip times, in some cases comparable to the RTT via a geosync bird. I suspect the tuning required is quite similar in both cases. -- * Dana H.
