The news headlines
• MoD publishes Spectrum Management paper
• New Russian amateur radio satellite
• Amateur radio from heritage sites
Earlier this year, following a public consultation, Ofcom announced
plans that would allow Government departments, their executive agencies
and certain other public bodies to trade radio spectrum. The MoD have
now published a consultation on reforming how it will manage its
spectrum use more effectively and its plans to release and share
spectrum. The consultation can be found on the MoD website. Go to
www.mod.uk and search for Spectrum Management.
------------------------
Russia has successfully orbited a new amateur radio satellite designated
as RS-30. The CW beacon is operational on 435.315MHz with reports of
other signals also on 435.215MHz as well. It appears to be in a 1500km
orbit, which would give a pass time of up to 20 minutes and enable
stations over 7000km away to be worked.
------------------------
Castles and Stately Homes on the Air was formed in 2005, this provides a
fascinating heritage activity with more than local interest. The British
Isles abounds with castles, forts and fortifications as well as great
houses and priories, parks, lodges, manor houses, etc. Some of these
will certainly be found near you. Even the remains of sites are accepted
as venues, provided the site is historically recognised. Get in touch
for a
registration number for the site you wish to use. For more info, go to
www.cashota.org and click on your country’s flag. Secretary, John
Williams, G8LGC. E-mail: john-williams@tinyonline.co.uk. Tel: 01709

Bulgarian National Radio has begun six months of trial DRM digital
broadcasts for listeners in Central and Western Europe. According to the
DRM Consortium, the trial will run for six months. The schedule is 0600
to 1200 Friday to Sunday on 11900kHz; 0900 - 1200 Monday to Thursday on
11900kHz and 1300 to 1600 Monday to Thursday on 9700kHz. All

------------------------
Additional GB2RS newsreaders are needed to join the teams already
reading on 5MHz at 12.30 hours and on Top Band at 21.30 hours. Also,
because the London area readings on 145.525MHz at 10.00 and 12.00 hours
have now been discontinued, a single reading at say 11.00 hours is being
considered.
The RSGB already has some volunteers as assistant readers but one or two
main readers are needed before this schedule can be introduced. 2 metre
volunteers need to be in the London area or nearby Home Counties and all
readers must be members of the RSGB. Anyone interested is invited to
contact the GB2RS News Manager Gordon Adams, G3LEQ on 01 565 652652 for
more information.

-------------------------
And now the solar factual data for the period from the 26th of May to
the 1st of June, compiled by Neil Clarke, G0CAS and Martin Harrison,
G3USF.
One small sunspot belonging to the old cycle came and went on the 26th,
otherwise, the solar disc was spotless. Solar activity was very low with
no solar flares taking place at all. Solar flux levels averaged 68
units with barely no daily variations. The 90 day solar flux average on
the 1st remained unchanged at 71 units. X-ray flux levels remained below
the minimum reporting level everyday. Geomagnetic activity started
at quiet levels with only an Ap of 3 units on the 27. However, on the
28th a small coronal hole disturbance arrived. Its impact was minimal,
with only 12 units reported on the most disturbed day. The average was
Ap
8 units. The ACE spacecraft saw solar wind speeds increase from 330
kilometres per second on the 28th to 680 by the 31st. Particle densities
were low except for a brief sharp rise to 55 particles per cubic
centimetre around 0300 hours on the 28th. Bz varied between minus 3 and
plus 2 nanoTeslas on the quiet days and between minus 8 and plus 9
nanoTeslas on the 28th.
And finally the solar forecast. This week the slightly more active side
of the Sun is expected to be looking our way. Saying that, solar
activity is expected to continue at very low levels, however, solar flux
levels should be into the low 70’s for some of the week. Geomagnetic
activity is expected to be at quiet levels all week. MUFs during
daylight hours at equal latitudes should be around 19MHz for the south
and 16MHz for the north. The darkness hour lows should be about 10MHz.
Paths this week to Australia should have a maximum usable frequency with
a 50 per cent success rate of around 20MHz. The optimum working
frequency with a 90 per
cent success rate will be about 16MHz. The best time to try this path
will be between 0800 and 1200 hours UTC. Sporadic-E is expected to take
place this week with a chance of openings up to 144MHz taking place
during the more intense openings.
And that’s all for this week from the propagation team
