- To: ham-space@ucsd.edu
-
- Latest news on the Anik sat. from Ottawa local news is that the problem
- has been narrowed down to the bird rotating about it's n/s axis once every 2
- minutes. The good folks at telsat report that they believe it's possible to
- stop the motion and keep the ant. pointed at earth by ground controlled
- firing of the onboard hydrazine rockets. In the event this works it will allow
- a return to revenue service in about 6 months. I understand this is a massive
- software task and the knowledge gained is expected to generate a large cash-
- flow in the future in the event of a similar failure of someone else's bird.
- The down side of this is that the life expectancy of this relatively new
- satellite has just gone from 9 to 6 years. On the bright side the Canadian
- amateur radio country wide uhf link "I.P.A.R.N." has had it's anik channel
- moved to Anik-2 in only 5 working days, a fine job and many thanks from the
- Canadian hams.
-
- Hope this is news

- STS-60 News as of 3 February 1994 at 12:30 UTC
-
- The Space Shuttle Discovery made a spectacular, historic, on-time liftoff
- this morning from the Kennedy Space Center. Discovery's launch marks the
- first joint U.S.-Russian Space Shuttle Flight. This will be the first of
- several joint missions planned in preparation for the development of the
- international Space Station. Cosmonaut Sergei Krikalev, U5MIR, was one
- of the six crew members on board this morning's Shuttle flight. His
- fellow American crew mates include Commander Charlie Bolden, KE4IQB,
- Pilot Ken Reightler, and Mission Specialists Jan Davis, Ron Sega, KC5ETH,
- and Franklin Chang-Diaz. The primary payloads on-board Discovery are the
- Wake Shield Facility, which will be deployed and retrieved during the
- flight and the Spacehab facility. Of particular interest to radio
- amateurs is the Shuttle Amateur Radio Experiment (SAREX) secondary
- payload. SAREX information for STS-60 including frequencies, callsigns
- and Keplerian elements, follows:

- SAREX Begins Operation
-
- SAREX was officially activated at 14:27 UTC on February 4 with a
- successful voice contact through the University of Surrey amateur radio
- station. Doug Loughmiller, G0SYX was the operator at the microphone to
- intitate the first contact with the STS-60 crew.
-
- The SAREX team reports a highly successful direct contact one orbit
- later with a school group in Boise Idaho. The contact, held at the
- Discovery Center included students from several schools including the
- Boise Senior High School. 19 students were able to ask direct questions
- to Shuttle Commander Charlie Bolden.
-
- The packet robot has also been quite active. The packet QSO sequence
- number exceeded the 800 mark about 30 hours after SAREX operations was
- initiated.
-
- Problems with RFI on the Wake Shield Facility have delayed the
- deployment of this primary payload. This has affected the SAREX payload
- somewhat. Currently, the Mars, Pennsylvania school contact, which was
- scheduled for today, has been postponed until the Wake Shield issues
- have been resolved.
-
- The official SAREX element set for today will be GSFC-003. Gil Carman,
- WA5NOM reports that the predictions using GSFC-003 are 1 second later
- than the current orbiter state vector.

- OSCAR-21 CELEBRATES THIRD BIRTHDAY
-
- On 29 January 1991 the first international Orbiting Satellite Carrying
- Amateur Radio (OSCAR) in which radio amateurs from the former
- Soviet Union (CIS) worked together with radio amateurs from
- Germany was successfully launched.
-
- The official name of the project was RM1, which stands for "RADIO M-1".
- The digital transponder RUDAK-2 is part of RM1.
-
- After the launch from the Northern Cosmodrome in Plesetsk, Russia
- the satellite was named as AMSAT-OSCAR 21, to emphasize that the
- spacecraft was built by, and for, Radio Amateurs around the world.
-
- AMSAT OSCAR-21 is an attached secondary payload (Piggy-back) aboard
- the CIS geological research satellite "INFORMATOR-1".
-
- OSCAR-21 (also known as RS-14) is a joint project between AMSAT-U
- in Russia and AMSAT-DL in Germany.
-
- Two UUENCODED files which show the RUDAK hardware and two pictures taken from
- an original launch video have been uploaded to AMSAT-BB by DB2OS. The picture
- is compressed using CJPEG.
-
- ANS thanks Peter Guelzow DB2OS for this item.

-
- AO-13 ZRO Tests Begin For '94
-
-
- AMSAT-OSCAR-13
-
- ZRO TEST SCHEDULE
-
- FEBRUARY-MARCH 1994
-
- The ZRO Memorial Technical Achievement Award Program, or just
- "ZRO Test" has a new schedule for February and March, 1994, via
- AMSAT-OSCAR-13. This activity is a test of operating skill and equipment
- performance.
-
- During a typical ZRO run, a control station will send numeric
- code groups using CW at 10 words-per-minute. At the beginning of the
- run, uplink power from the control station is set to match the general
- beacon downlink strength. This is level "zero". The control operator
- will send and repeat a random five-digit number, then lower his uplink
- power by 3 dB (half power) and repeat the procedure with a new random
- number (level "1"). This will continue to a level 30 dB below the beacon
- (level "A").
-
- A participating listener monitors the downlink signals until he
- or she can no longer copy the numbers. Those who can hear the beacon
- will qualify for the basic award by copying the code group heard at level
- "zero". The challenge is to improve home-station performance to a point
- where the lower-level downlink signals can be copied (levels 6 through
- A). To date, only one station, Darrel Emerson (AA7FV), has successfully
- copied level "A".
-
- The following schedule of Mode "B" tests were chosen for convenient
- operating times and favorable squint angles. The tests can be heard on
- 145.840 MHz. Andy WA5ZIB will conduct all the tests. Mode "JL" tests
- will no longer occur due to the failure of AO-13's 70-cm transmitter.
-
- Day Date (UTC) Time Areas covered
-
- Saturday Feb. 12, 1994 2345 UTC NA, SA, Europe, W. Africa

- Saturday Mar. 26, 1994 2315 UTC NA, SA
-
- Note that the dates and days are shown in "UTC", thus the second
- test occurs at 9:30 PM CST Saturday night (the 19th). Any changes will
- be announced as soon as possible via the AMSAT HF and AO-13 Operations
- Nets.
-
- All listener reports with date of test and numbers copied should
- be sent to Andy MacAllister WA5ZIB, AMSAT V.P. User Operations, 14714
- Knights Way Drive, Houston, TX 77083-5640. A report will be returned
- verifying the level of accurate reception. An S.A.S.E. is appreciated
- but not required.

- INTERESTED IN THE CURRENT SHUTTLE MISSION
- The current mission has a number of interesting aspects: this first Russian
- astronaut to fly on a shuttle, the 100th GSFC managed Get Away Special payload,
- as well as planned Shuttle Amateur Radio Experiment activities.
-
- The Goddard Amateur Radio Club (GARC) WA3NAN invites you to tune into
- Shuttle transmissions. As a public service to the Amateur radio community,
- the GARC retransmits space shuttle air-to-ground communications. During the
- STS-60 mission, Amateur radio operators, shortwave listeners, and those
- individuals with scanners can listen to these communications on the following
- frequencies:
-
- 3.860 MHz (lower sideband)
- 7.185 MHz (lower sideband)
- 14.295 MHz (upper sideband)
- 21.395 Mhz (upper sideband)
- 28.650 Mhz (upper sideband)
-
- and
-
- 147.45 Mhz (FM)
