Hello,

I just had a 17 degree pass of arrissat-1 here. On 145.950 FM I heard
sstv and international greetings.
When the sat was transmitting on 145.950 the transponder was active and
I could here myself but the signal was weak.
When I couldn't hear myself anymore I noticed the transmisions on
145.950 has also stopped. When greetings came back, transponder was back
also.
Setup: Yaesu FT-847 with 50 watts. Antennas: 12 element yagi for uplink
and 7 element yagi for downlink, both vertical mounted.
I made a recording if anybody is interested to hear it.
73,
Eric.

I just checked the PCSAT-1 downlink, and this was the last entry for him:

KB1GVR-9  pcsat *     57:00:07:47

So he was last heard via PCSAT-1 57 days 7 minutes ago or about 1620 EDT on
about 20 June 2011.  But there was no position given, so we do not have a
copy of his last packet (on FINDU anyway).

See the downlink data http://pcsat.aprs.org

Message-ID: <4E4AE1CE.8040002@xxxxxxxx.xxx>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8

I forgot to offer some advice when receiving the ARISSat-1 BPSK-1000
telemetry beacon: turn off your receiver AGC if at all possible. If you
can only choose between fast and slow, pick slow. If this causes a large
variation in audio level, reduce the gain to avoid clipping on the
peaks. A sound card A/D is 16 bits so you have plenty of dynamic range;
don't be afraid to use it.

Ideally the background noise level should be constant with the signal
going up and down.

This greatly helps the demodulator and decoder to distinguish signal
from noise. The error correction uses the Viterbi algorithm, and one of
its big features is the ability to distinguish between "strong" and
"weak" bits; a strong '1' or '0' is considered less likely to be in
error than a weak '1' or '0'. The decoder can even accept "I don't know"
for a limited number of bits.

The decoder can still fix errors in strong bits. But it can fix more of
them in the weak bits and still more in the "I don't knows" (known
technically as "erasures").

This is especially important when the signal fades deeply, as it often
does with ARISSat-1. With the AGC off, the audio signal level falls
during a fade and the decoder can recognize it as a burst of erasures or
near-erasures.

As with many questions in life, "I don't know" or "I think it's X but
I'm not sure" are better answers than being sure of the wrong answer.

73, Phil

I just had my first ISS packet QSO with him on July 24, and there was a

ARISSat-1 heard on 145.950 FM on Tuesday, August 16 at 2341 UTC. Nothing was
heard?from AOS to?Zenith
point (overhead my QTH). I initially thought the satellite battery had
failed. Then to my surprise I heard very
weak voice ID while it was tracking over Merritt Island, FL. My satellite
program showed that the satellite
was:?AZ: 69 EL:+58.

 This is very sad news. I met Mark in person in 2002 or so on one of my many
trips to Bar Harbor Maine. We became acquainted by sending text messages via
MIR then ISS. Marks love of the MIR/ISS packet network was very profound.
Last time I had dinner with Mark while passing through Ellsworth on my way
to work on the Bucks Harbor ARSR4 radar he gave me an 8x10 picture of him
with the race car he was involved in. I just went out in the garage and
found it and plan on framing it and hanging it in my shack. Mark will be
missed on the ISS.....

Hi all:I received this from Phil, N1EP. I thought there would be a number of
you that might like to know.Pete, K1HZU

Hello Folks,



If you have not heard already, local (Franklin/Ellsworth) ham Mark Austin,
KB1GVR, became a silent key on August 8. Graveside services will be this
Thursday, Aug 18, at 11AM at Woodbine cemetery in Ellsworth.



Mark was very prolific in space communications. In 2002, he told me that he
was
listening to his scanner, I think in 1997, and heard Russian voices coming
over
the speaker about every hour and 36 minutes. He discovered the voices were
from
cosmonauts on board the Mir Space Station. He then started recording their
SSTV
broadcasts and then went out and bought his first computer so he could see
the
pictures he had previously recorded from the Soviet slow scan TV
transmissions.? That inspired him to earn his ham ticket so he could talk
to the cosmonauts. And talk, he did. Since then, Mark has become well known
aboard the space shuttles and International Space Station by many astronauts
and cosmonauts.



Not only has Mark talked to them on voice mode, but became extremely
proficient
at using the space station and satellites to communicate digitally. He even
discovered a new way of using one particular satellite to extend
communication
capability.



Mark had the opportunity to meet some of the spacemen he had befriended
on-the-air when he made visits to Mission Control in Houston and to Kennedy
Space Center, where he also was thrilled to watch a shuttle launch.



His enthusiasm with space communications inspired many hams to give it a
try,
including myself. His advice was spot on so that I twice successfully made
voice contacts to the space station. I also had fun with Oscar-14 with
Mark's
tips. If you operated an APRS station in Maine, you would recognize the
KB1GVR
call sign, as Mark was also an avid APRS fan.



Mark's other pastimes included racing and flying with his brother in his
plane
where his same determination brought him lots of success, rewards, and joy.
The
walls of Marks home were decorated with the many ham radio and racing
certificates and awards he had earned and his vast collection of space
communications QSL cards is amazing, as many EAWA members can attest to as
Mark
has brought them in for display in the past.



Mark was only 50 years old, but in his too-short life, he accomplished a
lot.
As N1DP said on last night's Washington County ARES Net, Godspeed Mark. We
will
miss you.



73, Phil Duggan, N1EP

 Hi Jerry,
   Yes.   Even if you are forwarding the telemetry automatically in

still like to get your .CSV files emailed to telemetry (at) arissattlm.org

    You can just attach them all to one email and send them all in.

Hi Phil, KA9Q

Since modern VHF/UHF receivers do not supply AGC switching
ON/OFF I use and old HF Drake R-4C receiver tuned from 28 to 30
MHz with a 144/146 MHz receiving converter in front of it having
a 28/30 MHz IF

In general the old HF receivers supply AGC slow-medium-fast and
OFF

The above setup is usefull as well for Noise Figure measurements.

If a old HF receiver and a 2 meters converter are not available it is
possible to use a modern receiver reducing the RF gain belove the
AGC threshold level.

I acquired the FM downlink signal at 0600 UTC and heard part of the
diagnostic message and the ID.  The signal initially wasn't clear but it
improved by 0602 with little noise, strength of at least S8, and no fading.

At 0602, the following was transmitted after the ID and greeting:

MET = 65 minutes
IHU temp. = +41 deg. C
Control panel temp. = +56 deg. C
Battery voltage  = ??

The transmission appeared to stop at that point and nothing further was
heard.

Hi all,

We understand that the Edusat spacecraft from Italy has been successfully
launched today from Yasny on a DNEPR launcher.

It has apparently been granted an experimental licence by the Italian
Telecommunications Ministry to transmit on 435.750MHz but this frequency was
not submitted for coordination by the the IARU Frequency Coordination Panel.

We understand that it may only be transmitting when over Rome and that it
will use 9k6 GMSK
