The last two decent ISS passes for my location, when the ISS has been in
packet mode, have been nothing but "FM RS0ISS to CO2SR" and other CO2SR
messages. Its been so bad that its almost impossible to get any messages
up-linked as there is hardly any space in between messages - I saw a
couple of others get through but CO2SR (Armando in Cuba) seems to have
every pass sewn up).
Can anyone tell me what is going on?
Many thanks

Hi guys some one had heard Loren K7CWQ from CN93 ???
He will be from 10th to 16th in FM satellites...
I heard someone like he on SO50 at 1831 pass today ,but is my bad side :-(
Thanks in advance

This was my second contact this weekend???? ?WOW

I will be taking a one day trip up the coast a bit to CM94. This is the
grid that contains Vandenberg AFB which launches its fair share of
satellites (unfortunately, I will not be operating from the base) and I've
been told it is a bit of a rare grid these days.
If you are looking for this grid, below are the passes I plan to operate.
These will mostly be pretty high passes for me which is good as I will be
using a handheld Arrow antenna. I wish there were a lower elevation pass of
AO-07 in the east or even better, an easterly pass of HO-68 in FM mode but
these are not in the cards. If there is enough demand, I can work on
activating this grid again in the future.
Here are the passes I plan to work:
Day Object AOS(U) LOS maxEl Az
14.07.2010 AO-27 21:02 21:17 52 153 - 353

Hi David and are you paddling to the Islands??? Good place around Lompoc is
at
the train station, West of town along the beach. I worked from there early
last
year, but only station worked was Jeff, WB3JFS. Speaking of Jeff......anyone
heard him on of late??

Funny, I was just thinking about Jeff today wondering where he was.
I was thinking about working more in the area around Santa Ynez.there's some
big hills around Lompoc and I thought I might do better north of Santa Ynez.
Speaking of paddling, I am in the early stages of planning to activate CM93
from Santa Rosa Island.thinking of next March.before it gets too hot!

Hello Trevor,
437.861 is the correct frequency and it is CW beacon. The students
here are yet to update their website. Except the beacon, there is

Hi All,
TIsat-1 HB9DE is to be launched aboard the Indian PSLV-C15
on 12th July 2010
from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota (SDSC-SHAR),
Andhra Pradesh, India.
The lift off is at 03:52 UTC and the TIsat-1 is to be injected
into orbit around 04:11 UTC.
The CW beacon would be transmitting at the earliest at 04:26 UTC,
15 minutes after separation from the launcher.
Beacon Frequency is 437.305 MHz (400 mW).
The predicted TLE for TIsat-1 is as follows:
TIsat-1
1 99998U 10034Y 10193.17708333 .00002592 00000-0 35304-3 0 00007
2 99998 098.1177 252.3288 0008033 272.0048 315.2117 14.78702228001648
During its first orbit, starting about 04:50 UTC, stations around West and
North Mexico, Western Coast of US, followed by Canada, Alaska,
North and Central Asia would be able to receive the beacon signal.
We kindly request stations over these regions to listen on to
the beacon frequency and provide us with their valuable reports.
This help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
For the SUPSI-SpaceLab student team,
73,
-Paolo, HB9TYP

P.S.: TIsat-1 is part of the Nanosatellite Launch Service 6 (NLS-6)
cluster payload from the Space Flight Laboratory (SFL) at the University
of Toronto, Institute for Aerospace Studies (UTIAS).

I'm not having much luck making a contact but I heard a good bit on one of
the SSB satellites (I tried a lot of them, I forget) and I heard contacts
being made with the ISS crew. I'm still need to figure out what I'm doing
wrong in transmitting and/or learn what I don't have set right on my TS-2000.

>>> AISSat-1 is built by SFL for the Norwegian Defence Research
>>> Establishment (FFI). It is intended to demonstrate a new maritime AIS
>>> receiver that has been developed by FFI. The AIS receiver will be used
>>> to monitor ship traffic in Norwegian waters. The design of AISSat-1 is
>>> based on SFL Generic Nanosatellite Bus (GNB).
>>>
>>> The spacecraft has a main structure measuring 20 cm by 20 cm by 20 cm
>>> and it is stabilized in three-axes using reaction wheels. It has a fixed
>>> 46 cm long VHF payload monopole antenna for the AIS receiver and four
>>> UHF uplink monopole antennas for the command receiver. The downlink in
>>> the S-Band. AISSat-1 has an overall dimension of 80 cm by 45 cm by 37 cm
>>> and an overall mass of 6.5 kg. AISSat-1 will be secured to the launch
>>> vehicle using the XPOD GNB separation system.
>>>
>>> AISSat-1 is not an amateur satellite and, as such, has coordinated
>>> appropriate frequencies. Its ground segment is located at Svalbard and
>>> its control centre is at FFI, near Oslo, Norway.

>>> About TIsat-1
>>> ------------------------------
>>> TIsat-1 is a 1 kg CubeSat of 10 cm by 10 cm by 10 cm and is built by
>>> students and staff at University of Applied Sciences of Southern
>>> Switzerland (SUPSI). The primary mission objective is to involve
>>> students in systems engineering, development and test with a very
>>> challenging project and to provide students and staff at SUPSI with
>>> space mission knowledge. TIsat-1 will monitor the durability of material
>>> probes exposed to space environment, will test a micro electromechanical
>>> device and will validate the redundant, fault tolerant hardware and
>>> firmware design of the bus.
>>>
>>> Two monopole antennas (VHF and UHF) will be deployed after separation.
>>> Housekeeping and payload data will be communicated to the ground as
>>> orbital data profiles. TIsat-1 will be secured to the launch vehicle
>>> using the XPOD Single separation system.
>>>
>>> TIsat-1 communicates over amateur radio frequencies, as coordinated
>>> through the IARU, and they have been working with radio amateurs in
>>> Switzerland during the spacecraft's development. They have a Morse Code
>>> and data beacons. More information can be found at

>>> Future Launches by SFL
>>> ------------------------------
>>> SFL has signed its 7th launch contract with ANTRIX for NLS-7 in late
>>> 2010/early 2011. NLS-7 will launch the twin-satellite CanX-4 and CanX-5
>>> formation flying mission.
>>>
>>> SFL will be signing its 8th launch contract for NLS-8 momentarily, for
>>> the launch of two astronomy nanosatellites: BRITE-Austria (CanX-3A) and
>>> UniBRITE (CanX-3B). NLS-8 will also launch one partner spacecraft.
>>>
>>> In addition, SFL is under discussion for NLS-9, NLS-10, and NLS-11

Good signals from TISat over ZL 0926 to 0936 when the signals stopped
abruptly shortly before predicted LOS.

Hello All
All the five satellites including the StudSat and TISat aboard the
PSLV C15 were successfully separated from the vehicle and they are
very much in the 640 Km orbit right now. we are looking for the beacon
signal reports across the Globe.
Good wishes and Good to all the projects.

Any chance you can be up there for this years annual attempt at
the Golden Packet cross country test on 25 July (Sunday)? (See
July QST p 99). The west coast team to populate a dozen or so
mountains from San Diego to Vancouver is forming:
www.aprs.org/pct-golden-packet.html
This is a several hour event to try to get an APRS text message
from one end to the other on RF.
Last years team attempting the Appalachian trail is also
re-forming this year: www.aprs.org/at-golden-packet.html
