Well, that was not nearly as productive as I had hoped!
By the time I got some decent signals from the U.S., the elevation was
taking me down back into the QRM from all of the city around me. I
copied Frank, and tried to pull out one other who I heard as AA5VK but
wasn't, sorry folks, the signals were just in the noise from the QRM
even with the AMSAT broadband preamp. I see an email from Glenn AA5PK
now, well if we do it again tomorrow at least my ears may have a better
idea what your call is!
Looking at opportunities tomorrow there is a nice AO-7 7/2 at 22:22 UTC
here that covers a lot of the U.S., what mode will it be in?
We have an SO-50 7/2 at 00:54 UTC here that catches the southeast U.S.
before my LOS but I'm shooting through some buildings, maybe the lower
orbit will make up for that. Then FO-29 again 7/2 at 03:10 UTC here
that skims the top of the mountains to the west, which might be better
than tonight because more of it is out the window rather than through
part of the roof... it gets into the southern U.S.
Thanks to all for trying this with me, I'll look for you again tomorrow
night. Working portable is fun, but certainly more fun in a place where
you can walk out in the park and do it!

Good luck Jerry..if you want to try to stretch the foot print a bit check
your link to cn87wk (Seattle). Must be AO-7, been in mode B for awhile now.
Check you tracking program, we'll see.

Subject: [amsat-bb] OPS-SAT - A rare opportunity for testing new
amateur radio software for use on a CubeSat actually in space.
Message-ID: <BA6569896E844370AE2744894B1C5828@xxxxxxx.xxxxx>

OPS-SAT is planned to be a 3U CubeSat with deployed solar arrays to be
launched in 2016 into a low earth orbit.
Although the formal closing dates for expressions of interest from potential
experimenters for this project has now closed, contact has been made with
Dave Evans at ESA-ESOC who has confirmed that they would be very interested
to receive proposals from an AMSAT team to develop a novel use of this
spacecraft for amateur radio purposes.
In addition to an X Band downlink and S Band uplinks and downlinks, the
spacecraft will carry a simplex transceiver operating with 4k8/9k6 telemetry
using GMSK on the 435MHz band.
It s understood that experimenters will have access to an onboard processor
running Linux/Java at 500 to 800MHz.
The project is open to teams led by a group from any ESA member country and
initial info is shown here
http://www.esa.int/About_Us/GSP/Wanted_ESA_seeks_innovators_for_orbiting_labor
atory although the detailed design is being rapidly iterated.
It is emphasised that this is a very open project which will require lots of
interaction between the contributing groups.
Bright ideas are needed from our software experts and If there is sufficient
interest it may be possible to host a Skype conference about this
opportunity during the AMSAT-UK Colloquium over the weekend of July 20/21st.
It is not proposed that this should be an AMSAT-UK led project, but I would
be happy to provide some initial coordination!

Hi Graham,
Interesting concept!
Based on your comment below, can there be non-EU country participants so
long as they are a member of a team led by a EU country???
