Mine was on Oscar 6 & 7, mode A
Drake TR-4 and quad loop laid horizontally for recv.
Transmit was a 4 ele cushcraft fox hunt beam, and a rock bound FM two
meter tranny with dev and mic gains turned fully down, and we straight
keyed the PTT.
and amazingly it was pretty clean just a barely detectable chirp, but
heard lots worse chirpers in those days on HF. so felt pretty good.
Workked in less than a year like 28 states with the 10 wayy FM rig
running cw.

Hi Ronald
The artwork in the article is from the Maxim application note and its larger
than required Hi !
Hence I made my own layout using express pcb.
If you observe my layout is slightly different and I have added the 3.3 v
regulator (78m33) on the pcb.
For sharpness I had to print at 2x or more on the laser printer and then
reduce it manually while making a transpererncy film for silk screen for
photo etch method as I made a few pcbs for trial and tesing.
It indeed is good and the pcb layout is sharp.

Hi!
Ron W6ZQ is planning to work the AO-51 pass at 0230-0238 UTC tomorrow
night (Thursday night, early Friday UTC time) from grid BL02 on the
Hawaiian island of Kauai. This will be the 5th time he has been on
from Kauai during his Hawaiian vacation, and the third time from BL02
specifically. After tomorrow night, he will not be on from Kauai again
until later this month.
This AO-51 pass should be workable by those along the US West Coast,
along with parts of western Canada and Alaska. It will be a pass with
maximum elevation of 9 degrees here in Phoenix, and higher for those
further west. If you're looking for a chance to work Hawaii via
satellite, W6ZQ has been working virtually everyone who has called him
on other passes from out there during this month.
Good luck, and 73!

For those across this side of the pond and those who may be visiting, Martin
Sweeting (G3YJO and Chairman of AMSAT-UK) will be presenting this lecture
entitled
"Ordinary components, extraordinary missions - the role of small satellites
in space exploration" on Tuesday 19th January 2010.
The lecture will be in London.
"The Appleton Lecture was established in 1965 to commemorate the life and
work of Sir Edward Appleton, a widely honoured physicist and Nobel Prize
winner who is mainly noted for research into the upper atmosphere. Professor
Sir Martin Sweeting's talk will be the 45th in the series."
This lecture is free to attend and you do not have to be a member of the
IET.
It is first come. First served and you can reserve your place at

Doug,
Very interesting and useful list. As the owner of an Alinco DJ-G7 I would
comment that while it technically is a full duplex rig, it has proved
marginal at best, and unsatisfactory really, as a satellite rig due to
deficiencies in performance.

Yes, and bearing in mind that the launch is scheduled to be only a few
minutes away, there is an awful lot of activity at the base of the
rocket (i.e where the really hot bit comes from!)

Mind you there seems to be conflicting reports about launch time; SARC
report 14:55 utc (which has passed) and AMSAT - SA report 16:55 - so you
pays yer money and yer takes yer choice!
By the looks of things they are still trying to find the blue touch
paper and a big enough match so my guess is for 16:55 (12:55 edt)

The primary problem is that the OSCAR VII inputs are now in the weak signal
portions of the "band plans". With the proliferation of FM activity the
weak signal portions have been compressed. It is unrealistic to even think
of "blaming" the weak signal operators for interfering with OSCAR VII
operations. Remember, OSCAR VII is 35 years old and was not expected to be
in service for more than just a few years.
One should just be happy that OSCAR VII is still usable and work around the
occasional situation with unintentional interference. Besides, there are
not that many contests on the VHF and UHF bands and most of the time there
is little activity in the weak signal portions of 2-meters and 70 cm.
As for garnering additional satellite operators that is definitely a
possibility. However, I don't know how many new operators would actually be
recruited.

Over the course of several trips to Maine this summer, I was able to
operate as a portable station with my usual rig (HTs and a homebrew
yagi) from three different grids. Mostly I was on Mt. Desert Is
(FN54), spent some time in Portland (FN43) and made a day-trip to
relatively rare FN63. Overall, it resulted in 158 QSOs in the log.
The recent trip had some highlights:
The day-trip further Downeast to FN63 was my first "DXpedition". I
managed to work one pass on each of the three FM birds. Reception on
the first, SO-50, was rough, resulting in just two contacts. The
second, AO-27, from a blueberry hill in Harrington, resulted in 8 more
contacts. The third, a high AO-51 pass from the edge of the Atlantic
in the beautiful working harbor of Corea, resulted in 8 more contacts;
for a total of 16 different stations. I plan to get back there again
next summer.
I also tried working a couple of lower westerly passes from up on
Cadillac Mt. (1500') in Acadia National Park. On one 11 degree AO-27
pass to my west, I worked K6CDW in Agoura Hills, CA and WX7P in Rice,
WA. For both of them Maine was a new state, but I could tell Wilse,
WX7P was excited. It turned out, Maine was the last state he need for
WAS and he told me he'd been trying to get it for three years, so it
made my day also. Earlier in the summer, I'd been keeping an ear out
for KC7USS, Dave in Shelton, WA. Luckily, on my last evening evening
in Portland, we QSOed on AO-51, which completed his WAS also.
VO1BQ, Joe in St. Johns, NL, one of my contacts from the FN64 trip,
had told me of his transatlantic success from Sutton Hill overlooking
his hometown. He'd worked the UK, Portugal and Spain; so on my last
afternoon of vacation I headed over to Cadillac Mt. again, this time
to try some lower passes to the east. For the first one, I stopped the
car on the Ocean Drive in ANP, at about 300' and set up by the side of
the road for a 14 degree AO-27 pass. Sure enough, there was "Echo
America One Queen Sugar" calling. Pablo in Pontevedra on the northern
coast of Spain had a fine signal and we made a contact, my first
transatlantic! Later in the afternoon, I was up on the very top of
Cadillac Mt. for a 16 degree AO-51 pass. I heard the bird as soon as
it came up on the horizon. The carrier was quieting, but had a very
rapid fade which smoothed out some over the course of the pass. I
heard a station calling and replied, it was EA8HB, Hugo in the Canary
Islands. just off the coast of Africa; then another somewhat stronger
station came on, it was Pablo, EA1QS again. I stayed on the pass all
the way north and could hear my signal into the bird, but did not hear
anyone else. I was really thrilled to make these contacts. Hugo was
just about 3000 miles away, my most distant LEO QSO to date. Pablo
said he often is calling on the mid-atlantic passes, without hearing
anyone. I don't know how many of us are trying to work transatlantic
from the east coast and maybe I was just plain lucky, but I'll surely
be trying again!
All in all, a fun time operating portable. I'll be back in southern
Maine this fall visiting family and plan to make a day-trip to FN53. I
expect it is rare as it is mostly water.
If you need a QSL for any of our Maine QSOs, just send me an email
with the details. I'll be going over my log and getting cards out soon.
Thanks for all the contacts!
