Thanks to all who donated time and money to the Amsat Phase 3d project
in 1995.  Time before launch is getting short, and donations are still
needed.  Do what you can in 1996 to help us get the Phase 3D satellite
off the ground.

Thanks 73, & Happy new year!

Yha, the reason I asked was we have not had any shutdown at all.  All is 100%
normal here at Edwards.

As you can see from the first two replies your not going to be able to
decode Hubble's data. But if your still interested in the frequencies
they are:

Downlink: 2255.5 MHz or 2287.5 MHz (plus or minus 10 MHz).

But as the others have said, this link goes to the Tracking and Data
Relay Satellite (TDRS) and then to the ground. So a direct signal from
Hubble is not possible but in emergency conditions.

        I have used both beams and 5/8 wave verticals for RS-10. 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.

Space Shuttle EVA operations are conducted on frequency 279.0 MHz. These
are the crews one-watt space suit communications channel. And yes, people
have heard them in the past during spacewalks.

 This system has been recommended as an optimum solution
to satellite antenna aiming and automatic transceiver tuning
for doppler compensation. 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'm running out of hands to tune the radio, aim antennas,
hold my beer bottle, and write down call signs.

I forgot the words "weather permitting" - and that is not the case.
The balloon has to stay below the clouds, and on 01-01-96 that would
mean below 1,000 ft. Of course, that doesn't make too much sense, so
the launch will be postponed. All the equipment is ready for launch,
so we hope that will be able to start on

                  sunday, 01-07-96

We'll decide about that friday night, and if we do it, another
announcement will follow.

Jeff,

I believe that STS-72 is going first or second week of Jan.  I can double
check when I get to work on Tuesday.

As for NASA Select, I believe it probably is shutdown do to gov work
stopage.  I don't know what NASA center it orginates from.

I work for one of the contractors at Goddard and we are still working, or
at least till Jan 15, 1996 when our funding runs out.

not for quite some time!

With a voice-only SAREX mission somebody has to manually transcribe each
of the audio tapes, listening for call signs and entering them in to a
database.

With a couple of extremely active hams on board (Bill McArthur KC5ACR,
Chris Hadfield VA3OOG, and Ken Cameron KB5AWP) there were certainly
*lots* of voice contacts made, and it's going to take a while for some
volunteer to transcribe those tapes.

Goddard is a ghost town from what I have heard.  The SPRE project coordinator
says that STS-72 prep at KSC is deemed important enough to keep on going.
We don't know if STS-72 will actually launch if the government is still
shutdown or not...nobody will answer the question.

At the risk of getting flamed for self-publicity, I've added a MOCK
Radio Amateurs' Exam to my pages to lighten them up a bit.

Anyone who's had to suffer the awfulness of our UK City and Guilds -
a nightmare of formality and silly legislation - will perhaps get a
laugh out of this send-up.

But will you pass it   ?????  I dare you to find out!

   I've been seeing the same thing for more then two weeks. 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.

Has any thought been given to the possibility of adding a new "element"
to AMSAT-format ElSets?  The "Checksum" element was added after-the-fact,
I do believe, so why not a new (optional) item that describes the operating
schedule in some form?

Be extremely cautious before making firm plans with these preliminary
elements.  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 ....)

As a service to the satellite user community, the following description of the
NORAD two-line orbital element set format is uploaded to sci.space.news and
rec.radio.amateur.space on a monthly basis.  The most current orbital elements
from the NORAD two-line element sets are carried on the Celestial BBS, (334)
409-9280, and are updated daily (when possible).  Documentation and tracking
software are also available on this system.  The Celestial BBS may be accessed
24 hours/day at speeds up to 28,800 bps using 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no
parity.  In addition, element sets (updated daily) and some documentation
and software are also available via anonymous ftp from archive.afit.af.mil
(129.92.1.66) in the directory pub/space.

==============================================================================

Data for each satellite consists of three lines in the following format:

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
1 NNNNNU NNNNNAAA NNNNN.NNNNNNNN +.NNNNNNNN +NNNNN-N +NNNNN-N N NNNNN
2 NNNNN NNN.NNNN NNN.NNNN NNNNNNN NNN.NNNN NNN.NNNN NN.NNNNNNNNNNNNNN

Line 0 is a twenty-two-character name (this change is being made to be
consistent with the name length in the NORAD SATCAT).

Lines 1 and 2 are the standard Two-Line Orbital Element Set Format identical
to that used by NORAD and NASA.  The format description is:

Line 1
Column     Description
 01-01     Line Number of Element Data

Is there anyone out there that recalls this problem.

Teletype corp printing terminal for sale.

I can't remember if it's a asr or ksr33.

I have one of these things in NW London, in storage which I'd like to
sell.. as I'm more into ham radio these days...

It comes supplied with a step-down transformer and it may need some
attention. I have never used it, although it cam with my PDP 8e, which
I'd also like to sell/swap at some later date.

I also have an Intersil Intercept unit as well, with 4kb of battery
backed ram!

Please feel free to make me an offer either for cash or ham radio
equipment.

regards

Notes:

 . * maximum Geminid activity on the morning of Dec 14.
     Best forward scatter conditions for this setup between 2h and 8h UT.
     Compare with last years's results in RMOB9412.

 . & some Ursid activity on Dec 22-23. The radiant is circumpolar for this
     location. Apparently, no outburst took place.

Observer: Werfried Kuneth
Location: Villach, Austria (46 37' N, 13 53' E)
Frequency: 59.250 MHz, SSB mode
Transmitter location: 150 kW TV video carrier from Bucaresti, distance
      950 km, east. 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.

2. 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).

According to SATELLITE TIMES Nov/Dec 95, the Hubble usually communicates
to NASA's Tracking and Data Relay Satellite System (TDRSS).  Two
steerable high gain antennas are used.  Freqs are 2255.5 Mhz and 2287.5
MHz.  Low gain antennas receive ground commands and transmit engineering
data on freqs from 2100 to 2300 MHz.

I don't recall either but logic points me toward a non-standard display
driver. A lot of the cheaper Pentiums seem to have "Harry's discount
video boards" in them. I have had this trouble with other code where the
video card was not truly backward compatible.

Wayne,

I used to own one of the IC-211s and as I recall Icom told me there
never was a service manual per se. Icom is on compuserve. If you can't
get on compuserve send me an e-mail and I will get you their internet
address.

The HamCom '96 amateur radio convention is expanding its focus this year,
with a theme of "Computers, Satellites, and Microwaves in Today's Amateur
Radio" and is looking for speakers who can address these topics.  Of
particular interest are programs which bridge these topics (High speed
packet on the microwave bands, packet operation via satellite, etc.).
Speaker sessions are typically 20 to 30 minutes in length.  HamCom æ96
runs Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, June 7 - 9, with speakerÆs forums all
day Saturday and morning on Sunday.

If you are interested in speaking at HamCom æ96, or have suggestions for
speakers, please contact me at email address [e-mail], or via phone
at [phone].

My Yaesu 5400 rotor control box is generating noise hash on the HF
bands. If I turn the contol box off, the noise disapears. Is anyone
else having this problem? If so, is there a fix?

Hello, there

Please forgive my ignorance, but, what is rec.radio.amateur.space about?
I'm a member of the Planetary Society, but, have never heard of your
group. Where can I find the FAQs? Could you please e-mail me at
[e-mail]? I sure would appreciate anyone taking just a
moment to enlighten me. It sounds way cool.

Tom

Hi there.
           Rec .radio.amateur.space is where radio amateurs ask questions
to other amateurs around the the world about amateur radio satellites.
We use these satsllites to commutate to each other around the world.
You need a licence to operate throught the satellites, this corse takes
 about 1 year here in Ireland. Hope this answers your question.

                        MONDAY JANUARY 1, 1996


SpaceNews originates at KD2BD in Wall Township, New Jersey, USA.  It is
published every week and is made available for unlimited free distribution.


* SpaceNews NEWS *
==================
SpaceNews is a non-commercial electronic journal including articles of
interest to Amateur Radio Operators involved in satellite and other advanced
areas of telecommunications.  It is published every week (as time permits)
and is available for unlimited circulation provided no charges are made and
no profits are realized from its availability.

SpaceNews has been in existance for about 8 years and is available from a
variety of different electronic sources.  It is widely distributed on the
Amateur Packet Radio (AMPR) network through thousands of terrestrial packet
bulletin board systems around the world.  SpaceNews circulation on packet
radio follows normal AMSAT message routing.  SpaceNews is also uploaded
regularly to the AMSAT-OSCAR-16 digital store-and-forward "Pacsat" satellite
in compressed (ZIP) form.

In addition to wireless circulation, SpaceNews is also posted to several
Usenet newsgroups on the Internet including: rec.radio.info, sci.space.news,
and rec.radio.amateur.space.  Those with Internet access can obtain the
latest issue of SpaceNews by using the Unix "finger" command as follows:

                        finger [e-mail]

Those with e-mail capabilities can receive SpaceNews by sending a blank
message to "[e-mail]" with a subject of:

                        #FINGER [e-mail]

Archives of SpaceNews issues from years past are available via anonymous
FTP at pilot.njin.net (128.6.7.38).  Files are located under the
/pub/SpaceNews subdirectory.  Archives from 1993, 1994, and 1995 have been
compressed into .ZIP files, while issues from 1996 are available individually
in ASCII text form.

                        MONDAY JANUARY 8, 1996


SpaceNews originates at KD2BD in Wall Township, New Jersey, USA.  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)

* 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: [e-mail].


* 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.
The pub/SpaceNews/webersat-images subdirectory holds some WEBERSAT-OSCAR-18
images downloaded and processed by ZL1AAN.  If time permits, some of these
images may be complied into a World Wide Web page over the next month or so.

Hi
I had the same problem with my Pentium , I solved it buying a new video
card (#9fx-330vision).If you don┤t want to spend your money try to type
in your autoexec.bat file this 2 lines:
MODE CON CODEPAGE PREPARE=((850) c:\dos\ega.cpi)
CON CODEPAGE SELECT=850
I hope it could work.

Good luck and 73 from Barcelona.

I have used my sound blaster to receive SSTV pictures.  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.  (the card will route the input
to the speaker, but you cannot do DSP with that).

Some of the Turtle Beach cards do support full duplex operation and
could be used for you purposes.

Bret

Yha, that would figure.  I guess everyone is going back to work from what
I hear on the news.

   Mir uses simplex on 145.550 both voice and packet. Euromir uses 145.800
for downlink and 145.200 for uplink. Euromir callsign is DP0MIR. Mir's
call on 145.550 is R0MIR for the keyboard and R0MIR-1 for the Pbbs. Only
ONE connect at a time on the PBBS and 7 at a time to the keyboard. After
2100 utc they are asleep and not at the station.

The MIR space station is much easier to contact via radio than
ANY of the USA Shuttle missions but it isn't overly easy
either.  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.

It primarily deals with discussions of Amateur Radio as it pertains
to satellite communication and has nothing to do with astronomy
or related topics. I'm not sure what the Planetary Society is but
I am assuming it has to do with astronomy. I'm sure you'll get other,
more definitive answers.

Hi Allen.  I have the YAESU G-5400B rotator operating with the Kansas City
driver/tuner.  That is one of the cheapest commercially made, and it always
worked.  I have M2 2M, 70cm, and a Bob Myers s-mode 2.4 ghz antenna.  I do
not have any problem with chatter (dead band set at 5 degrees), or any other
problem.  Tom

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!

Mine too Tom, I just turn it off like you do. It doesn't always generate
the noise. It is more noticable if the beams are facing the operating
postition. I have thought about adding some decoupling caps to the control
and power lines to see if it would help. Others must be having the problem
too. Maybe Yaesu has a fix for this.

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 moisture gets in the rotators and destroys the feedback potentiometers.

The potentiometers are also not accurate enough for SHF antenna pointing,
but mods exist to add optical encoders.

 Jim, the problem may be just that the antennal is a vertical, which seems
to pick up more line noise than other types of antenna. 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.

Hello, I have successfully gotting into the RS10/11 a couple of times
with a vertical but i want to build an egg-beeter.  The theory behind it
I understand.  Thanks to the Electronics Encyclopedia....excellent
antanna section.  This is what I need to know;  are two complete loops
used, which are made from one piece of wire each.  Or is it like 4, semi
- circles that are used.  This makes the difference between a loop and a
halo antanna.  Also assuming each loop is complete, (no break at the top)
then are the midpoints of both loops in contact?

Thank you!

Is there an optical encoder for the 5400/5600 series of rotors?  I would
appreciate more information on this if so.  63  Cliff Buttschardt W6HDO

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. When they tighten up the system,
both noises go away.

As an old U.S. ham WA2GMO who has let my license expire I am faced with a
new test including CW if I wish to qualify again.  I don't mind. I am not
a technician but it seems to me amateur radio is all about developing
skills in the discipline and that includes CW.

I can hear the RS-10 and RS-12 downlinks very well on 10 meters.  I do


not hear RS-15 very well.  Sometimes the beacon is strong but then it
disappears.  The very few QSO's I hear on RS-15 usually are quite weak.
Does RS-15 have some problems or am I not doing something right?


Thanks.

As I understand it, IC's are giving a "industrial" or "military" rating
at production time depending on their performance in a hostile
environment. Digikey, Mouser, etc. all carry industrial-grade ic's -
you'll probably have to contact the manufacturer to find sources for
military-grade.

Regretably no.  Brian's one of my favorite astronauts and the SAREX team
really wanted to try to get SAREX assigned to this mission.  Others on
the flight who have expressed an interest in amateur radio include
Winston Scott and Koichi Wakata.

But the SAREX team can only support so many flights each year, you know -
things like real jobs get in the way.

Here's the list of upcoming 1996 SAREX flights:

STS-76  March        SAREX-M
STS-78  June          SAREX-C
STS-79  August      SAREX-M
STS-80  November  SAREX-C
STS-81  December  SAREX-M

Check out the JSC amateur radio club web site.  It's got a list of the
astronauts who have been assigned to these flights, their call signs, and
more details:

ARLS001 Ham radio power supply aboard Mir fails

German cosmonaut Thomas Reiter, DF4TR/DP0MIR, aboard the Mir orbital
complex, reports that a power supply used for some of the
spacecraft's ham radio equipment failed on New Year's Eve.  The
remaining, older power supply is only capable of powering the old
Icom 2-meter transceiver and one 1200-baud TNC.  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.

right now.  Try finding it on Yahoo, and if you can't find it, e-mail me

Hi, Geert
If you're looking for amateur frequencies, the most used is 145.550MHz.
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.

Or for most of this, go to the NASA web pages and get it free.

NASA has many different pages for many different disciplines but the home page
is:

http://www.gsfc.nasa.gov/NASA_homepage.html

One of the best pages for the newest info and images is:


http://www.hq.nasa.gov/office/pao/NewsRoom/today.html

So, in my opinion don't waste your money by buying what you can get for free.

Jim


P.S. His offer states that they are royalty free, and that's the way they must
be since he simply got them for free from NASA also!

Sorry, the "military" specs relate primarly to the temperature range that
the device is rated to perform over, nothing to do with radiation
resistance.

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.

The only problem with the 5400 rotors I had are
1 There IS NOT a good weather sealed. It is just a GLOB of grease to
attempt to keep the moisture and other elements out...
2. Is there Limit switches on the AZ rotor ?
If there is then the ones on my AZ rotor did now work from day one
The limit switch seems to work on the EL rotor ok

Other than SERVICE I have been happy with this rotor

the person who wrote the receiving equipment for these transmisions was
extreamely expensive was right. our local repeater broadcasts the shuttle
link through a sat. link. you could use your scanner to copy this, however
it is a secondary user of the frequency. maybe you have something like
this in your area. contact your local ham radio club. hope this helped.

Someone said that there was 9600 baud packet equipment operating on 70cms
aboard
the Mir space station, they also said it was down at the mo, due to a failed
power supply. Does anyone know when a new power supply will be sent up?

Also, do they give QSL cards out for Mir? If so, where do I send the card, and
how many dollars is the going rate?

Hi Chuck,

I got the kit and haven't built it yet.

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.  Generally uses a
10.7 and 137 MHz generator to set the IF cans and crystal trimmer caps.

73,
Steve, N4DG

Greetings,

We are considering the purchase of an aeronautical mobile satellite
phone terminal for use with AMSC/MSAT. 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 ?

Thanks for any information or experience reports,
Jim

UCI PD freqs:

F-1 155.445 MHz
F-2 155.505 MHz

The UC system is suppossed to be switching over to 800 MHz trunked system
for each campus (which will include all radio users from the PD to
maintenance), but I'm not sure when. The UCI allocated freqs are:

866.4875; 866.9875; 867.4875; 867.9875; 867.9875; 868.4875.

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.

Jim,

Nope is like you need a bigger PIPE
more bits to flow  thru it in the same amount of  given time
Geneerally the higher the transmission rate the more bandwidth /space/ the
signal will occupy
That is about as complicated as I can get :->
I'm sure other will do 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.

Gary

When you get this baby up and runnng could you post your results to the
group.  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.
Good luck

I also say NO to contest on any of the birds

Todd,
You are right about the downlink power budget
I have heard may stations on ao-13 who were several DB LOUDER than the beacon
I have also seen the effects of a strong signal on other weaker signals..
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 !

What can we do about that ??

The most current orbital elements from the NORAD two-line element sets are
carried on the Celestial BBS, [phone], and are updated daily (when
possible).  Documentation and tracking software are also available on this
system.  The Celestial BBS may be accessed 24 hours/day at speeds up to
28,800 bps using 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity.

Element sets (also updated daily) and some documentation and software are
available via anonymous ftp from archive.afit.af.mil (129.92.1.66) in the
directory pub/space.

As a service to the satellite user community, the most current of these
elements are uploaded weekly to sci.space.news and rec.radio.amateur.space.
This week's elements are provided below.

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.

As I understand it, this is not a problem. The internet can have a variety
delays as the information progresses from one node to another. The only
concern I have is dropouts. If the phone were to drop out, the SLIP connection

is lost and you have to go through the initialization process again.

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.

  There's a list of other QSL addresses but I don't have it on me.

I would say YES.  At least one every quarter.  For us beginners (no code TECHS
)
it would be a great way to work some DX and other countries.  The bands would
be full with contesters looking to make a CQ.

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.  Aren't there enough contests already?

No.  The comments of others about satellite hogging should prevail.  There
are stations that have set up on packet to connect to MIR through the whole
pass, every pass!  Very unfortunate, but all we can do is minimize the
temptations.

Dear Geert,

over here in Europe FM-ATV seems to be much more common than in the US.
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

I am thinking about putting together a system to view the WX pic's from the
Low-Pass NOAA & METEOR Satellite's.  I down-loaded the current weather.tle
yesterday and fired up STSPLUS to listen to the signal on the scanner, but
it sounded quiet out there.  Years ago I could hear the audio on a close
pass with just the rubber duck in the back yard.  I'm not sure how current
my Freqency list is, and for that matter how many of these sat's that are
listed in the TLE are still transmiting pictures.

Could someone please "Fill in the Blanks or correct" and either E-Mail it
back to me or post it here in case others might want the info also?

Thanks
p.s.  I did check rtfm.mit.edu for a FAQ but didn't find any.

In N.Y. I pick them up best on the first 2 freqs.
During Sarex missions listen in on 145.550 and on the Mir docking missions
listen on 145.840 when the craft is overhead of your area.

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.

        What are the requirements for industrial & military grade chips, as
opposed to normal chips? i.e. What do they have to survive?
