Yep! Get those 70cm antennas ready to go for your FoxTelem stations!
NASA TV will be airing the unberthing live, which is scheduled for 14:35
UTC on Friday. According to the NASA media advisory, deployment of the
CubeSats will occur within 24 hours after unberthing. Hopefully we?ll see
packets start flowing into the AMSAT server some time on Saturday.

I have used my Arrow to contact repeaters and for simplex. Works fine. I
would replace the studs and screws with stainless and also place bronze wave
washers between each element and the boom. But, I don't know about leaving
it out in winter weather. Brad Smith KC9UQR

John,
Not for permanent home station use, but I have used the six UHF
element Arrow as part of a rover in VHF Contest operation:
http://www.kl7uw.com/RoverJune06.jpg
On the far side of the crossboom.
Had to mount facing sideways as the 3-element 6m beam was too wide to
be street-legal. No rotator (used truck).
Also six element 2m and 18 element 900-MHz loop yagi. Made 81 mile
contact using 15w on 927.50 FM from local 400-foot hill.
The screw-on elements are subject to coming lose with vibration, so
one would need a way to permanently tighten them (lock-tite on threads?).

Subject: [amsat-bb] Arrow Antennas for terrestrial work
Most of the reviews I have seen for the Arrow Antenna dualband yagis are
regarding their use on the satellites, which I think is what they are
mainly made for. Has anyone on the list used one of their dualband
antennas mounted permanently for terrestrial work as well? They do sell a
mounting bracket for permanent mounting to a mast.
Do they seem well made enough to withstand the outside elements for a few
years on end? Do they seem to perform as well as other antennas which have
approximately the same boom size and number of elements?

Besides the mechanical issues that others have noted, one thing to
consider is that the 2m / 70cm elements are at 90 degrees from each
other. If you want to mix repeater and weak-signal uses, you may need a
way to rotate the beam so that the polarization is optimized for the
band and use you are engaged in.

Contact Opportunity?
?
Call for Proposals?
?
Upcoming Proposal Window is February 1, 2020 to March 31, 2020
?
The Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) Program is
seeking formal and informal education institutions and organizations,
individually or working together, to host an Amateur Radio contact with a
crew member on board the ISS.? ARISS is happy to announce a proposal window
will open February 1, 2020 for contacts that would be held between January
1, 2021 and June 30, 2021. Crew scheduling and ISS orbits will determine the
exact contact dates. To maximize these radio contact opportunities, ARISS is
looking for organizations that will draw large numbers of participants and
integrate the contact into a well-developed education plan.?
?
The proposal window for contacts between January 1, 2021 and June 30, 2021
will open on February 1, 2020 and close on March 31, 2020.? Proposal
information and documents can be found at www.ariss.org. Two ARISS
Introductory Webinar sessions will be held on November 7, 2019. The first is
at 6:00 PM ET and the second is at 9:00 PM ET. The same material will be
covered during both sessions, so choose the session that best fits your
schedule. The Eventbrite link to sign up
is?https://ariss-introductory-webinar-fall-2019.eventbrite.com?.
?
The Opportunity?
?
Crew members aboard the International Space Station will participate in
scheduled Amateur Radio contacts. These radio contacts are approximately 10
minutes in length and allow students to interact with the astronauts through
a question-and-answer session.?
?
An ARISS contact is a voice-only communication opportunity via Amateur Radio
between astronauts and cosmonauts aboard the space station and classrooms
and communities. ARISS contacts afford education audiences the opportunity
to learn firsthand from astronauts what it is like to live and work in space
and to learn about space research conducted on the ISS. Students also will
have an opportunity to learn about satellite communication, wireless
technology, and radio science. Because of the nature of human spaceflight
and the complexity of scheduling activities aboard the ISS, organizations
must demonstrate flexibility to accommodate changes in dates and times of
the radio contact.?
?
Amateur Radio organizations around the world with the support of NASA and
space agencies in Russia, Canada, Japan and Europe present educational
organizations with this opportunity. The ham radio organizations' volunteer
efforts provide the equipment and operational support to enable
communication between crew on the ISS and students around the world using
Amateur Radio.??

About ARISS:
?
Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) is a cooperative
venture of international amateur radio societies and the space agencies that
support the International Space Station (ISS).? In the United States,
sponsors are the Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation (AMSAT), the American
Radio Relay League (ARRL), the ISS National Lab and National Aeronautics and
Space Administration (NASA). The primary goal of ARISS is to promote
exploration of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEAM)
topics by organizing scheduled contacts via amateur radio between crew
members aboard the ISS and students in classrooms or public forms. Before
and during these radio contacts, students, educators, parents, and
communities learn about space, space technologies, and amateur radio. For
more information, see www.ariss.org.

In my opinion, the Elk Log Periodic is better suited than the Arrow for
permanent mounting.
The downside is the gain on 70 cm compared to an Arrow. Even then, it will
work. I used one during the June VHF contest and was able to work UHF with
20w to the same places I did on VHF with 50w (around 250 miles).
A plus is having both bands on the same polarization.

I had an arrow antenna outside for years on my roof in Brooklyn. So in all
weathers. +30C to -20C. You need to seal the matching stub or water can
get in. As others have mentioned the elements will seize in place and
rust. So you can't take it down later and reuse it. You have to cut the
elements off. Otherwise they last a few years for sure. So if you have a
spare one that is otherwise going to waste, you can use it. Otherwise an
antenna designed for outdoor use is better.

Will there be any updates (addiitions) required for FoxTelem to enable
HuskySat telemetry reception? Currently I get a spacecraft error when I
try to enable HuskySat (understandable, no TLEs, etc.).

Here is a little update on my satellite ground station build project
and a demonstration of a test I did with my Advanced Receiver Research

SSB Electronics has mast mount preamps that some people prefer over
ARR, that I assume are comparable. But my googling produced a website
that has an error loading.
