>From NASA - Flight Engineer Koichi Wakata spent his morning working in the
Japanese Kibo module to install a deployer mechanism that will be used in
concert with the Kibo robotic arm to ?launch? the first set of NanoRacks
CubeSats. Wakata, who ran into some difficulty last week installing an
electronics box that would help control the deployment of the
mini-satellites, successfully installed that box after troubleshooting an
alignment issue. The deployment of the first batch of CubeSats, which had
originally been scheduled for this week before being postponed following
last week?s installation issue, has been postponed further to make sure that
the CubeSats do not fall into the intended orbit of the Global Precipitation
Measurement satellite launching later this month. The exact date of the
CubeSat deployment is still being evaluated.

NASA RELEASE 14-042
NASA Announces Fifth Round of CubeSat Space Mission Candidates
NASA has selected 16 small satellites from nine states to fly as auxiliary
payloads aboard rockets planned to launch in 2015, 2016 and 2017. The
proposed CubeSats come from universities across the country, a primary
school, non-profit organizations and NASA field centers.
CubeSats are a class of research spacecraft called nanosatellites. The
cube-shaped satellites measure about 4 inches on each side, have a volume of
about 1 quart and weigh less than 3 pounds.
The selections are from the fifth round of the agency's CubeSat Launch
Initiative. After launch, the satellites will conduct technology
demonstration, educational research or science missions. The selected
spacecraft are eligible for launch after final negotiations, depending on
the availability of a flight opportunity. The organizations sponsoring
satellites are:
-- Boston University, Boston
-- Brown University, Providence, R.I.
-- Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, Daytona Beach, Fla.
-- Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory, Laurel, Md.
-- Lincoln Laboratory, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Lexington, Mass.
-- Marquette University, Milwaukee
-- NASA's Ames Research Center, Moffett Field, Calif.
-- NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Md.
-- New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology, Socorro, N.M.
-- St. Thomas More Cathedral School, Arlington, Va.
-- The Aerospace Corporation, El Segundo, Calif.
-- University of California, Los Angeles
-- University of Florida, Gainesville
-- University of Michigan, Ann Arbor
-- Utah State University, Logan (2 CubeSats)
In the previous four rounds of the CubeSat Launch Initiative, 99 CubeSats
from 28 states were selected. To date, 27 CubeSats have launched through the
initiative as part of the agency's Launch Services Program's Educational
Launch of Nanosatellite Program. This year, four separate launches will
carry 17 CubeSats.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Hi!
Last weekend, I saw a tweet that from Jeff K0JSC that AMSAT retweeted,
saying that there would be a new AMSAT net starting up on Thursdays at
1900 local time (currently 0200 UTC Friday). I e-mailed Jeff for more
information about the net, so I could update AMSAT's list of nets at:
http://ww2.amsat.org/?page_id=2113
I was also hoping to be able to connect into the net. Jeff explained that
the net was available on the Rocky Mountain Radio League's 146.940
MHz repeater near Denver, as well as on his system of repeaters in
Colorado. After some back-and-forth e-mails, I was able to find a way
to connect into the Allstar Link system and get to Jeff's repeater system
as the net was starting up last night. The web site for Jeff's repeater
system http://www.k0jsc.com/ provides an audio feed from the repeater
system, for those wanting to listen in on the activity.
The net control last night was Skyler KD0WHB, a 15-year-old ham. If
I didn't hear it mentioned on the net, I wouldn't have realized this was
the first time he had been a net control. Skyler read satellite-related
news bulletins, took check-ins, and asked everyone who checked in if
they had ever worked satellites. There were 10 check-ins to the net, 9
from around Colorado plus me.
Congratulations to KD0WHB for running a great net, K0JSC and the
Rocky Mountain Radio League for allowing those repeaters to be used
for the net, and everyone who checked in. It was great to hear the
discussion related to satellites.
73!

I assume many home station satellite operators utilize some kind of
full-duplex radio or combination of two radios for CW on the current
satellites.
Lately, as I have been listening a lot more with my FUNcube Dongle
Pro+, I have observed many CW stations drifting across the satellites'
passband. I realize this is not a new phenomenon. I would assume
these drifting stations are NOT using any type of computer Doppler
correction. If they were using computer control, I would assume their
CW would stay on the same place in the transponder's passband. It is
visually apparent when the stations manually make larger frequency
movements because of the curve displayed on my SDR application's
waterfall display.
Many times I have been engaged in a QSO only to have someone CQ'ing on
CW drift across my existing QSO. Anyone who operates satellites has
probably had this happen to them many times. Sometimes myself or
others in QSO may try to tell the CW operator "Hello - QSO in
progress" but it is apparent they are not hearing us.
My question is, does it make sense for people using CW on the
satellites to have their receiver set to USB? Do some operators do
this? If listening on a VFO with USB and had your transmit VFO set to
CW, would this help make it easier for CW ops to know when they have
drifted into an existing voice QSO?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't automatic doppler corrections
dynamically change your frequency to compensate for doppler? Would this
mean anyone engaging in doppler correction are actually drifting into a
stable frequency?

I am not a constant user of the sats, but I notice this with both some CW
and SSB transmissions.
Some sats just have drift.
It is still fun.

You're basically correct.
Stations using full computer control like what you get in SatPC32 will
be able to keep their frequencies steady at the satellite, but there
would still be some drift in what you observe on your SDR software's
waterfall display. I also see this when I'm working those stations
with my portable two-radio setup, where I'm having to make minor
adjustments on both my uplink and downlink frequencies to keep up with
the other station. For the mode B satellites where the operators are
only adjusting the higher of the two frequencies (uplink), it might be
easier to keep the downlink frequency at your receiver from drifting
so much. There would be some drift at the satellite, but not so much
on your waterfall display.

For the few times I have worked CW via satellite, I always set my
receiver to USB. Without computer control, I would have to be
adjusting my receive VFO all the time to keep the CW signal in my
receiver's CW passband if it drifted. My ear can do an OK job of
dealing with the drifting signal (changing pitch of the CW) when
the receiver is in USB. When I use USB, I also avoid using any
narrow receive filtering.
For the FUNcube Dongle Pro+ and HDSDR, I only use USB on these
satellites. I may widen the audio passband HDSDR has for USB,
but I don't bother putting it into CW when copying CW signals.

Yes, the frequency in use by the CW station that is not adjusting for
doppler will appear to be moving for stations that are adjusting for
doppler....right?

I am testing SatPC32 V.12.8c together with my new IC-9100 for Doppler
correction.
The only problem I notice is that when I activate the CAT (C+) it doesn't
set the rig in satellite mode and I have to do it manually in the
transceiver.
Not a very big trouble, but I wonder if I am doing something wrong as I
can't believe something so simple is not done by the program.
I will appreciate your comments.

From Emily Lakdawalla of The Planetary Society:
"So ISEE-3 will pass by us, ready to talk with us, but in the 30 years
since it departed Earth we've lost the ability to speak its language. I
wonder if ham radio operators will be able to pick up its carrier signal --
it's meaningless, I guess, but it feels like an honorable thing to do, a
kind of salute to the venerable ship as it passes by."
