For the last 10 years or so I have had M2 antennas for 2m and 70cm, the
2mCP14 and 436CP42, at about 40 feet with mast mounted preamps and LMR400
feedline. Both are fixed right hand circular. In that time I've completed
satellite DXCC, am currently at 1750 grids on satellite, 100+ on 2m via
tropo, Eskip, and meteor scatter, about 40 grids on 70cm tropo and EME.
There are times when the circular polarization is a hindrance, but times I
feel it's a benefit as well.
My recommendation is to not overthink the problem, but to be on the air
often, and pay attention to when tropo, Eskip, and meteor showers occur and
take advantage of them.

Subject: [amsat-bb] Warning Label, One Antenna To Do It All
Newbie here--using satellites only for three weeks. I'd appreciate Elmers
offering answers to my second question. The first is asked in jest.
1. Shouldn't there be a warning label on AMSAT web sites and publications,
to the effect, "WARNING: Satellite operation is highly addictive"? I've
been on the air for 63 years, and the fun I'm having is matched only by my
first year operating with a Heathkit AT-1 and Hallicrafters S38D on 40 meter
CW.
2. More seriously, I currently am using 70cm and 144 MHz small yagis mounted
separately on tripods on my snow and ice covered deck, fixed at 230 degrees,
which however has enabled me to make many contacts (and 16 states so far).
I'm looking to put up "real" antennas in the spring, on a 40 foot tower.
I've always been a "one antenna to do it all" guy on HF, and I wonder if
that also would be possible for both SAT and terrestrial VHF/UHF QSOs, on
CW, SSB and FM. Needless to say, I realize that any such antenna would
represent a compromise, getting the job done ideally but certainly not be
the best performer on one particular band or mode. Comments about the M2
LEO Package? Great for SAT, and only losing 3 dB, I believe, for
terrestrial communications. And what about somewhat longer linear yagis
(not phased) on the same cross arm but slanted 90 degrees in relation to
each other? So far, in my SAT work, I'm not seeing much in the way of
difference between vertical and horizontal polarization. Presumably slant
polarization works fine on SAT too, and it also would still do the job on
both CW/SSB and FM where you definitely don't want to be 100% vertical
(CW/SSB) or 100% horizontal (FM) and therefor lose 20-30 dB of gain.
Many thanks for your collective wisdom and experience.

Odd that they are calling a new orbit 300km above the geo arc as a disposal
orbit. That does not sound right to me - as the article pointed out...

The more common term used in this context is "graveyard orbit." Relocation
to 300 km above the GEO altitude is what FCC regulations require at the end
of life of any geostationary satellite.

Subject: [amsat-bb] Upcoming ARISS contact with Agrupamento de Escolas
Serafim Leite, S?o Jo?o da Madeira, Portugal
Message-ID: <146117ED8B10414CA694F57C76682AC3@???>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"
An International Space Station school contact has been planned with
participants at Agrupamento de Escolas Serafim Leite, S?o Jo?o da Madeira,
Portugal on 27 Jan. The event is scheduled to begin at approximately 16:33
UTC. The duration of the contact is approximately 9 minutes and 30 seconds.
The contact will be direct between OR4ISS and CS2ASL. The contact should be
audible over Portugal and adjacent areas. Interested parties are invited to
listen in on the 145.80 MHz downlink. The contact is expected to be
conducted in English.
Story:
The Serafim Leite Schools is located in the north of Portugal in the city of
S?o Jo?o da madeira. It was born in 1957, and during this 60 years of
existence it has been growing.
It started by being a school with only the grammar and today has all levels
of education:
First cycle, Second cycle, Third cycle and Secondary.
Currently it has more than 1200 students and 110 teachers that are
distributed in three buildings that make up the Serafim Leite schools
cluster. Its identity is closely linked to vocational education that is a
national reference in vocational education. The training offer includes
Electronics, Computer, Mechanical, Audiovisual, Markting, Science and
Technology, Socioeconomic Sciences, Visual Arts and recurrent adult
education. It is a school where children arrive still small in their
parents' arms and leave the school like men and women who are already
graduated with a high degree of knowledge. It is in this educational
environment where human and social values are privileged that our students
grow with the notion that humanity is urgently required to take action to
reverse the global warming of the earth, making their own school an
Eco-School.The astronaut could be our eyes helping us to look the Earth in
another way.
Participants will ask as many of the following questions as time allows:
1. What is your daily routine like on board?
2. When you have a health problem what do you do? Are there any doctors
on board?
3. When astronauts go to space for how long do they stay there?
4. Do you miss family?
5. Do you remember the very first moment that you look outside de ISS
and saw the planet earth? What did you felt and did you think of
someone special?
6. How do you bath in a ship?
7. How can you get water in space?
8. What is it like to live in the ISS?
9. What kind of experiences take place from the ISS and what are the
advantages of making them from there?
10. How is it possible to create an atmosphere within the ISS?
11. Is the perception of time on board of the ISS different from the
one you have on Earth?
12. How many hours of exercise should an astronaut do each day?
13. What effects does space flight have on the human body, and what do
you feel?
14. When you are not working what do you do?
15. Being a different profession how old did you realize you wanted to
be an astronaut?
16. What do you miss the most about Earth?
17. How can weightlessness influence the health of astronauts?
18. Tell us about your adventure in space?
19. How can you communicate with your family?
20. Do you feel scared when you are in space?
21. How and where do they sleep?
22. How long do astronauts train to perform space missions?
23. Do you have any specific food when you are on missions?
24. In an emergency situation can you all return to Earth?

Stupid question?why put them in a graveyard orbit where they are now debris
vs deorbiting satellites? Especially in this case where there?s a non-zero
chance it?ll explode and throw more debris in all directions.

It doesn't have enough fuel. Even if it hadn't used 14 years worth of
propellant for stationkeeping, it would not have enough fuel to
deorbit. As far as I know, no geostationary satellite has ever been
deorbited because it requires an impractical amount of fuel to do.
The satellite should not explode once it gets to the graveyard orbit
because the batteries will be disconnected and there will be no load
on the batteries.
Orbital debris is a very serious concern in the geostationary belt.
Old satellites need to be moved out to make way for new ones. This
fact is also why there will never be any amateur satellites placed in
the geostationary belt. No regulatory body is going to let an amateur
group place a satellite there. We are at the mercy of finding a
commercial or government host satellite to get an amateur payload into
geostationary orbit.

Dan,
There is a reasonably accurate discussion here:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graveyard_orbit
Note toward the end the section on dealing with the disposal orbit slowly
filling up. I have seen references to companies looking at the economics of
pickup and disposal for dead satellites. No idea where that stands,
however. There are a few from the earliest days of the Space Age which
would be great to have in a museum.

Greetings,
?
Portable and hand-held satellite operation is planned for the Winter Field
Day in CM97 between 10am and 2pm PST today
(ref http://www.sbara.org).?
A couple of operators may try their hand at working the FM birds AO-91 and
AO-92.? I expect the passes today to be pretty busy, but would appreciate a
come back if you hear the club call KU6S.
?
Many thanks and 73!
