I hope every AMSAT member is watching this right now, it's incredibly

The spacewalk is current at least 10 minute behind schedule.  As nearly as I
can hear, they have not opened the hatch yet (at about 1444Z).  Currently
doing leak checks etc.  There is also currently no video, except from
Mission Control Moscow.  They cosmonauts are wearing helmet cams, but the
NASA commentator indicated that the coverage would be spotty.

Hi Dave,

Like many others, I'm looking forward to working you from the quad point.
I'll finally be home to take advantage of your operation and hopefully get
four new ones into my own log.

Adding one point to WD9EWK's info, the GPS display needs to show an accuracy
of 20 feet or less. Lower is better for stability of course, but 20 is the
magic number.

>From your description of the quad point, the forest may not be friendly to
your GPS. Just like when you're working through the birds, GPS sigs are
impaired by the population density of nearby trees.

Have fun!

Hi Everyone,

Just a reminder (and before the flood of ARISSat emails in the list
tomorrow!), this weekend I'll be heading out to the California Lost
Coast to work the satellites from that rare grid CM79.  CM79 has no
roads, no power, no houses, nothing but lots and lots of ocean and a
small triangle of mountainous forest.  Plans are to operate right from
the northeast tip of CM79 so if all goes well I'll be providing four
grids at once:  CM79, CM89, CN70, and CN80.

Weather looks reasonable (cloudy mornings, sunny afternoons) for
portable solar-powered operation.  I'll operate on Sunday August 7th
and Monday August 8th, and I've posted a list of potential passes on
my blog.  Operation will be during local daylight only, due to the
remoteness of the area I don't want to be hiking down off that
mountain after dark!

I'll aim to work all available satellites -- AO-51 (if it keeps going
strong like it has been), SO-50, and AO-27 for FM.  VO-52, FO-29, and
AO-07 (primarily mode B) for SSB.  If ARISSat is up and running I'll
try to get on that too, depending on congestion and satellite
performance.

I'll have my SPOT Locator beacon with me, so my exact location should
be available from the link on my QRZ web page.  If the current beacon
position shows that I'm right at the intersection of -124 and 40
degrees, likely I'll be available on the sats as they go by.

More details on my website at http://kb5wia.blogspot.com

Hello All,

This event reminds us that nearly 14 years ago RS-17 Sputnik 40 built by
AMSAT France was launched from MIR Russian station during an EVA.
Video can be downloaded from
http://f6bvp.free.fr/amsat-f/media/sput40a.mov
and a Web page (in French) is dedicated to this very first launch of a
microsatellite from a space station.

Well .. seems it's not going to happen this morning. Somebody forgot to put
and antenna on the sat :(
Wondering if they'll try again during this walk or at another date.

Watching the deployment live right now.  Is it just me, or do the cosmonauts
look as though they're beating the CRAP out of ARISSat while trying to
jettison it?

Just one more point:

Your GPS map datum should be set to WGS84 (which should be the default), and
if the unit is equipped with it, WAAS should be enabled. This will ensure
you will get the lowest possible accuracy reading.  This accuracy figure,
along with the lat/lon coordinates, must be pictured in your video or camera
footage along with your station on the boundary.

I use the Garmin etrex Legend HCx and I have never had any issues with
finding grid boundaries.  Just make sure you have the GPS on while en route
to the boundary.

The VUCC rules spell all of this out in a very simple format on the ARRL's
website:

4(e)&(f)
