Yes, agreed!
I popped a tiny 7" 1/4 wave antenna on my balcony this evening and hooked it
up directly to a FUNcube Dongle Pro+. Results here:

I heard signal from FITSAT-1 at 1700z pass over JA. 437.250 CW was loud and
clear.
I could not hear WE WISH, TechEdSat and F-1 at the pass.
Congratulations FITSAT-1 team!

Subject: [amsat-bb] IC-910H Transceiver Question
For many years I have used this Transceiver intermittently as a receiver in
a protected location, so I never got around to grounding it. Now I am not
in a protected location and want to transmit, so the Transceiver must be
grounded. I check the manual on page 14. Yes, there is an empty,
threaded location on the back panel for the ground connection, but it
does not say what thread the connection has. Now this normally would not be
a big deal, as I would go to my bucket of nuts and bolts and get a few bolts
and find which one had the correct thread. Unfortunately, I am not near
my normal location and the junk box so I look more carefully at the manual
for the thread size and do not find the information.
If someone reading this knows the thread size I would appreciate it if you
would let me know, so I can go get one,
maybe two so I will have a spare, and then mark up my manual.

Jeff,
I'm not sure you'll consider this to be help, but this intended to be
helpful...
I'm also preparing for an ISS contact in four weeks. Our ARISS mentor
*strongly* advises against using computer control of the radio. (Computer
control of the primary station's Az/El is encouraged. The backup station
uses omnidirectional antennas in case the primary station's computer crashes
or the Keps are bad, etc.)
Instead, he recommends programming three groups of seven channels (21
channels total) on both the primary and backup radios. One group of 7
channels is for the "primary private" frequency with Doppler shifts (+3 kHz,
+2, +1, no shift, -1, -2, and -3 kHz). The second group is for the "backup"
frequency pair. The third group is for the standard public 2M frequencies.
The idea is to minimize the number of things that can fail. And to make it
very easy to switch frequency pairs if you don't make immediate contact on
the primary pair.
I view my ARISS contact as very similar to Field Day, except that I only
have one chance at the contact with 600 students in the audience watching my
every move, along with members of the media (newspaper, radio, and TV)
recording it for posterity and publication.
What could go wrong? ;-)
73, Steve N9IP
P.S. A Microsoft update two weeks ago completely destroyed my XP laptop
that I used to run SatPC32. It still won't boot. Note to self: Turn off
automatic updates a couple of weeks before the ARISS contact.

Subject: [amsat-bb] SatPC32ISS
I'm helping a Florida group prepare for an ISS school contact. One of their
needs is to run SatPC32/SatPC32ISS with an Icom 9100. I tried to run
SatPC32ISS this evening on my Win XP machine that I regularly control my
9100 and 847 with, using SatPC32. I never had a need to run the SatPS32ISS
program and I'm having a problem. I click on the program to start and it
tries to start by displaying an icon on the taskbar, the icon disappears
after a few seconds. Nothing shows up on the screen, no errors. Nothing.
Does anyone have a clue? I'm only at home a few days a week to try and test
this to get it SatPC32ISS working with a 9100 for the group doing the
contact. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance...

Hi All,
Here in the UK, I had a reasonable pass (43 deg elevation) at 23:08UTC on
4th October.
I did not hear 'WE WISH' at the expected frequency of 437.505kHz +/-
doppler.
However, I did detect a satellite transmitting on 437.515kHz +/- doppler.
This satellites doppler curve accurately followed the ISS, (but was 15s
ahead of the ISS).
The signal was very weak, but I think I heard some SSTV in the modulation.
The exact same happened 1 orbit later at 0:45UTC on 5th October (although
this time about 18s ahead of the ISS).
Is this 'WE WISH'. If so, is it transmitting 10kHz high ?
73s,
Simon (G7WIQ)

This week is the 50th anniversary of the launch of Mercury Sigma 7 capsule
with astronaut Wally Schirra on October 3, 1962.
http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/mercury/missions/sigma7.html
Sigma 7 featured the first Hasselblad camera and photography from earth orbit.
The camera was purchased at a Houston photo shop.
http://www.space.com/17873-schirra-sigma-7-50th-anniversary.html
50 years of technology later, beautiful photographs were released today by
NASA from ISS.
The photos are of small satellites released outside the ISS Kibo laboratory
using a Small Satellite Orbital Deployer attached to the Japanese module's
robotic arm.
Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency astronaut Aki Hoshide, flight engineer,
set up the satellite deployment gear inside the lab and placed it in the
Kibo airlock for deployment.

Good signal. I didn't write telemetry down...
There was also another satellite 1 kHz upper in freq heard that
sends CW-telemetry. Much weaker sending numbers. Copied callsign

All,
I asked Jim where in the world he has been. Here is his response:
I've been at Diego Garcia since early July and in fact am gearing up to
return home in another month. I'm QRV on HF as well as the satellites, and
just this evening (my time) had the opportunity to visit the GPS tracking
station located on the island; very cool indeed!
