Hello Graham,
If all goes as planned (for now), AO-51 should be changed into mode
V/S around 21:45utc today, 22 Feb 2010.
Thanks--sorry for the delay.

I'm looking for something similar to, but more economical than, a
GlenMartin RT-1832 tower & non-penetrating base. It doesn't have to be
quite that tall, but I'm looking for at least 11ft so their 9ft model
won't do.
Suggestions?

Hello All,
Yes, it will be held on Easter weekend...but the event is on a Saturday :)
I will be hosting an AMSAT table at the RARSFest in Raleigh, NC on
April 3. Would really appreciate some help. Demonstrations are
possible, but this depends on how much help you all provide. It's a
nice hamfest, and the RARS club is always very hospitable to an AMSAT
table and workers. http://rars.org/hamfest/
If you can commit to helping me on April 3, please contact me directly
off-list
n8mh AT amsat dot org
Thanks!

There was a fair amount of confusion as the two satellites passed each
other over the US tonight. It might be good practice to mention which
satellite you are listening to while calling CQ, etc.

Hmmm... Interesting. That means that we all need to check both satellites
before using either one, to be sure the orbits and modes are compatible, and
avoid the passes that aren't (no matter how tempting). Dual-bird SSB/CW ops
may be confusing, but accidentally running high power FM into FO-29 could be
far worse. That bird is too delicate and precious to abuse.

The FM uplink for 68 is outside of the uplink passband for 29, so it
just makes for confusing SSB/CW ops.

The callsign I didn't see listed John sounded like that of a young op
attempting to make a sat contact. The callsign sounded something like KJ4NVA
or KJ4MGA. I sure would have liked to have seen him or her make a sat
contact. Hopefully he or she will be back for another try and not be QRMed.

Hi!
Sunday afternoon was not planned to have much radio activity. There
was going to be a get-together at a ham's house in Mexicali, before
I left that area for the 3.5-hour drive home later in the day. I
saw a pair of passes - AO-27 first, then SO-50 - to the east that I
wanted to try to wrap up my radio operating for this trip. I took
my FM satellite setup - IC-2820H, Elk Antennas 2m/70cm log periodic -
across the border one more time.
The get-together was at the house of David XE2DAK, southeast of
downtown Mexicali in grid DM22go just over 3 miles/5km south of the
USA/Mexico border. This neighborhood is tightly packed with houses,
but with a decent view of the eastern sky. I had the pass predictions
for the two passes, and was ready for the AO-27 pass at 2025 UTC. It
seemed fitting that my first QSO was with another Mexican station,
Manuel XE2BHL west of me in Tijuana. After that, 7 more QSOs were made
in what sometimes becomes the busiest 7 minutes on the radio (it
*definitely* was on Thursday afternoon's 2025 UTC pass!).
About 40 minutes or so later, SO-50 came up from the south. With
XE2DAK's house blocking the south, I had to wait a couple of minutes
for the satellite to clear the house. Once that happened, 7 QSOs
were made with stations across much of the USA. Two of the QSOs were
interesting... I worked Larry KI6YAA, who was only a few blocks north
of the USA/Mexico border. Larry gave me a QSL card for that contact
after I crossed back into the USA - so I now have grid DM22 confirmed
on my way toward an XE2 satellite VUCC. The other QSO was with a
station in my home city Phoenix - K7NYS.
After SO-50 went away, it was time for some great Mexican "carne
asada" and enjoy the afternoon with friends before crossing the
border and driving home. I was able to see the XE2DAK shack and
the gear David has been using to work the FM satellites. For a
small station, it was impressive. You can follow links with
photos of XE2DAK's station from his QRZ.com entry.
For this weekend, I made 93 QSOs from Mexico between Thursday
afternoon's activity south of Mexicali and Sunday's QSOs from
Mexicali. I made 42 QSOs at the Yuma hamfest, and Kevin KJ6DDS
made 7 QSOs on a couple of passes Saturday afternoon. When I
returned home last night, I saw that my truck had traveled 868.3
miles/1397km for this trip.
Thanks to everyone who helped make the hamfest demonstrations a
runaway success. Stations that were giving a brief description
of their location, even if it was just the state, helped make a
positive impression on the audiences. Thursday showed that there
was a lot of interest in grid DM21, and that it might be worth a
return trip there before my current XE ham permit expires. Or
maybe some of the locals will make the trek south and put it on
the air.
73!

Back again after a short absence...
Wanting to get an L/S system going again. Ideally using a mesh dish like
the 1.2m or 1.8m that TekSharp shows on their webpage...but it would appear
that they are no longer in existence.
Any suggestions or leads? I'm thinking, I'd go dish for S because of RX
noise, so might as well throw in L while I'm at it. Especially since there
don't appear to be any L crossed yagis out there.

I gave an abbreviated presentation to the newly-resurrected Cal Poly Pomona
ham club this afternoon. "Abbreviated" because we just had an hour, and a
great pass of SO-50 right over us (85 degrees!).
Glen Shiery, AF6V, is doing great work exposing the kids to different facets
of amateur radio. They have a dedicated room for their shack, and it will
probably be up and running again by the Summer.
It felt great speaking to a "younger" crowd. We need more youth in this
magnificent hobby!

Hi Laurent,
Attention: The Moon TLE (2line) it's not usefull for the "SGP4/8 two lines
format ephemerid model "
(InstantTrack, SatPC32 etc. )
the format is only a compress readable parameters
The moon:
Giving Keplerian elements for the moon is much more difficult. The main
problem is that the moon's orbital plane has a fixed inclination
with reference to the ecliptic plane. The moon's orbital plane
wobbles around there and turns once every 18.6 years. Seen from the
earth, that gives an changing inclination of about 18 to 28 degrees. The
inclination of true earth satellites, on the other hand, remains
fixed and the tracking program assumes that the inclination is not
changing. The only way to overcome that problem is to give sets of
"Keplerian elements" every 50 to 100 days. In that period the change of
the inclination is not too big and the error stays small.
A second problem with "Keplerian elements" for the moon is that the
moon's orbit is severely perturbed in a way a ordinary satellite
tracking program cannot handle. Those perturbations come from the
sun, the earth (not being a exact sphere) and from major planets. To
compute those perturbations exactly, we would need several hundred
corrective terms. For the accuracy needed here (1-3 degrees for the
usual amateur satellite antenna), it has been sufficient to correct
only for the varying eccentricity.
