Driving to my daughters in Ironton Ohio on Sunday afternoon around 2015UTC I
had my handheld Wouxun on my 5/8 antenna scanning and heard the ARRISAT 1
pass. Could not believe how clear it was, sorry did not have anything to
write down the particulars to send in. Does anyone have the Azimuth and
elevation of that pass on Sunday EM88 area? Just very curious about the
particulars for that pass.
THANKS
Larry KD8JHW

Does ARISS have a FM repeater on it, or only a linear transponder?  I can't
see to find the frequencies for the repeater if there is one, only the
transponder frequencies.

Hi Jim,
?
Looking forward to your ARISSat-1 decay posting.
My plots suggest the bird will be down to?140km around 11th of January,
?provided the SFI and A index stay? similar to current values

Farrell,
?
An often used rule-of-thumb in astrodynamics for "decay" height is about 140
kilometers
which is about 87 miles.? A satellite that gets that far into the
atmosophere will burn up?during ?
it's?final?orbit in short order!? I would recommend you just keep trying
until you are sure
the satellite is no longer in orbit.? I will post an updated decay
prediction on AMSAT-BB this
afternoon for operator planning purposes.

Are there any stations in Mexico, Central or South America that is
interested in working AO7?

I am looking to try and work anyone on AO7 mode B. I am presently trying
to get my antennas put up for working Mode A but it will be another week
or more before I am ready to try Mode A.

If anyone is interested in trying to work AO-7 Mode B please email me
and we can run the predictions to see when would be a good time to try
and make a contact.

thank you very much & 73's

I had a nice Mode A QSO with Brent, VA5MS, on the 1407-1427 pass this
morning.  Also heard KC9ELU but the bird was a bit far to the west for  him.
AO-7 will be in Mode A for most of SKN, so get those 10-meter  antennas ready!

CU then,

Anyone near Kingston Ontario or Watertown, NY that can contact VE3FFR?

His email is not listed with QRZ and I need to ask him to shut down his
PCSAT beacon. This would reduce the load on PCSAT so that maybe I can get a
command in to get control and maybe make a recovery.

Next recovery effort will be dawn passes on Wed 28 Dec 2011.

PCSAT is almost responding. I only need to get one exchange of packets
successfully to do a recovery.

We need everyone to turn off all transmitters and reserve PCSAT power so we
can complete the command/ack sequence.

You may continue to work the ISS, but ONLY if it is in view and is
operating. Otherwise, please, no transmissions on 145.825. No unattended
beacons... Adding also to the 145.825 channel QRM is UO-11 that appears to
also have come back to life.

Thanks,

Bob, WB4APR
