The issue of the Kenwood radio being "power hungry" in this thread is my
fault...

I remember to read a info related to this in some place time ago, but
now I can't point you to a reliable source, maybe I'm remembering a
comment in a forum post elsewhere and this (wrong) idea stick to my mind...

Sorry to all about that.

Keep in mind that there are many great folks working behind the scenes on
their own time to make things work. ARISS members and the ARISS board are a
great example of dedicated folks working on our behalf. Things happen in
due time. You can always contact your ARISS rep for your region and get
updates.

Message-ID: <51AED12C.2030707@xxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed

I'm now logging all my satellites contacts and trying to upload them
every couple of days to the ARRL Logbook of the World (LoTW). So far, so
good with just over 25 grids confirmed via LoTW.

Only hitch so far is when I tried to upload my two digital contacts,
made using packet through the ISS digipeater. I'm using VOLog and it has
a field for satellite data. I logged the ISS as the satellite and V/V as
the satellite mode.

LoTW rejected those two QSOs, and a quick check with the TQSL editor
revealed that ISS was not considered a valid satellite. ARISS is listed,
but I wasn't sure if that would be correct either.

So--is it possible to upload ISS digital QSOs to LoTW for VUCC credit or
not? If so, what is the correct method in terms of the log entry? I
tried a Google search on the topic--but that only added to my confusion.

Thanks--as always!

AMSAT will have its usual presence at HamCom in Plano, TX, this weekend.
There will be an AMSAT Booth, Demos, and an "Introduction to Amateur Radio
Satellites" talk by Douglas Quagliana, KA2UPW/5.  Come by and visit with us
and take home some of the "goodies" introduced at Dayton this year.



We will attempt to operate on as many of the passes below as possible -
remember, it's hot in Texas this time of the year and we may not stay
outside in the Blazing Sun very long.  It looks like AO-07 will probably be
in Mode B all weekend and we have included HO-68 as a "listen only" demo on
several passes.



More information about HamCom is available at the following URL:

Monday or Tuesday depending on what day Universal sets up for the airplane
ferry.  I have authorization from the relevant authorities to bring amateur
radio gear into S2 (Bangladesh) onboard the Boeing I am ferrying to the
country.  It is a sovereign  airplane so I expect no issues.  I should have
a call sign at least in S2 within a month.  I am bringing both HF and
satellite gear.  I have unlimited baggage (the Boeing is ferrying empty...) 
I should set up some residency in Bangalore a month or so after that.  I
have visa's for both countries.  Robert WB5MZO
