IARU ministrative Council Steps Up Efforts to Combat Radio Spectrum
Pollution
The International Amateur Radio Union (IARU) ministrative Council (AC) met
on September 28 and 29 in Lima, Peru, to conduct a final review of IARU
preparations for the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) World
Radiocommunication Conference 2019 (WRC-19). The Council's annual meeting
took place just ahead of the triennial IARU Region 2 (IARU R2) General
Assembly. Responsible for IARU policy and management, the Council consists
of the three IARU international officers and two representatives from each
of the three IARU regional organizations.
WRC-19's lengthy agenda includes items of direct interest to the Amateur
Service, including consideration of improvements to the 50 MHz amateur
allocation in Region 1, protection of existing amateur allocations, and
development of the agenda for the next WRC in 2023. IARU volunteers and
member-societies have been working for the past 4 years -- since WRC-15 --
to influence proposals from national telecommunications administrations and
regional telecommunications organizations (RTOs) that will be considered at
WRC-19, which gets under way late this month in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt.
"IARU efforts have reduced the number of potentially damaging proposals that
otherwise might have been offered for consideration, but several challenges
remain," IARU said in a news release. "A small team of IARU observers will
attend WRC-19 and will work with amateurs and friends on national
delegations to reach the best possible outcomes."
Front: Reinaldo Leandro, YV5AM; IARU Vice President Ole Garpestad, LA2RR;
Don Beattie, G3BJ; Ken Yamamoto, JA1CJP; Wisnu Widjaja, YB0AZ. Rear: Hans
Blondeel Timmerman, PB2T; IARU President Tim Ellam, VE6SH/G4HUA; David
Sumner, K1ZZ; Ramón Santoyo, XE1KK, and George Gorsline, VE3YV.
Looking beyond WRC-19, the AC plans to increase its commitment to
influencing the work of standards organizations, particularly the
International Special Committee on Radio Interference (CISPR) and its
participating national committees. IARU cited "the rising level of radio
spectrum pollution caused by unnecessary and unwanted emissions from
electronic devices, such as wireless power transfer for the recharging of
electric vehicles (WPT-EV), is a serious threat to radiocommunication
services including the Amateur Service."
Council participants engaged in an extensive discussion to identify the
principal challenges facing Amateur Radio and how the IARU and its
member-societies might better address them. Upgrading of the current
websites of the IARU and its three regional organizations is under way and
should be completed in the coming months. The AC also adopted a Brand Guide
to ensure a common identity across the IARU organization.
The Council's next in-person meeting will take place in October 2020, just
prior to the IARU Region 1 Conference in Novi Sad, Serbia. Virtual AC
meetings are also planned beginning in December 2019 and January 2020. Read

Ten Teams to Compete in Spectrum Collaboration Challenge Championship Event
Ten teams of academic, industry, and entrepreneurial technologists are set
to compete in the Spectrum Collaboration Challenge (SC2) championship on
October 23 at the Mobile World Congress in Los Angeles. The Defense vanced
Research Projects Agency (DARPA) -- a US Department of Defense agency --
announced the qualifiers in September. SC2 is a 3-year contest to unlock the
potential of the RF spectrum using artificial intelligence (AI). The teams'
radio designs will go head to head during a live competition, and the
first-, second-, and third-place winners will walk away with $2 million, $1
million, and $750,000 in prizes, respectively.
"These teams have fought long and hard for their chance to compete in SC2's
Championship Event," SC2 Program Manager Paul Tilghman said in a news
release. "After 3 years of competition, this final roster reflects some of
the best minds working at the intersection of AI and wireless
communications."
Teams representing Drexel University; the University of Florida;
Northeastern University; Vanderbilt University; a group from Ghent
University, the University of Antwerp, and Rutgers University will compete
in this month's event, along with teams of independent researchers.
"Since its beginning in 2016, SC2 has challenged teams to merge recent
advances in AI and machine learning with the expanding capacities of
software defined radios (SDR) to create radio networks capable of
autonomously collaborating on ways to best utilize the spectrum
moment-to-moment," the news release said. "Some teams employ rule-based, or
'first wave' AI approaches that attempt to capture all possible moves or
scenarios a radio could face and then define a corresponding response.
Others are using more advanced AI and machine learning, or 'second wave'
approaches that exploit pattern recognition to help their radios avoid
interfering with their wireless neighbors while skillfully navigating to
open spectrum. A few teams use a combination of the two approaches."
The aim of SC2 is to determine if AI-enabled radios can autonomously
navigate the wireless spectrum, eliminating the need for rigid,
human-managed spectrum bands or traditional spectrum allocation.
"The novel approaches developed by our competitors could enable us to make
more efficient use of the spectrum we currently have available, and possibly
forestall spectrum scarcity that threatens future performance as more and
more devices come online," Tilghman said.
DARPA says that SC2 began with more than 30 teams that either submitted a
proposal or successfully completing technical hurdles developed by SC2
organizers. A championship play-in round was held in early September to
determine the final 10 teams that would compete in the Championship Event.
Grant Imahara, known for his work on the Discovery series MythBusters and
Netflix series White Rabbit Project, will serve as the master of ceremonies.
He will provide commentary with DARPA's Tilghman and GNU Radio Foundation
President Ben Hilburn, KJ4DDR. The finale is free to attend and open to all
MWC 2019 Los Angeles attendees as well as the general public. Those without
a 3-day pass may email to request a free 1-day pass to the SC2 Championship
Event.
So Now What? Podcast
"You're not 'Just' a Tech" -- featuring Andy Milluzzi, KK4LWR -- will be the
focus of the new (October 3) episode of the So Now What? podcast for Amateur
Radio newcomers.
If you're a newly licensed Amateur Radio operator, chances are you have lots
of questions. This biweekly podcast has answers! So Now What? offers
insights from those who've been just where you are now. New episodes will be
posted every other Thursday, alternating new-episode weeks with the ARRL The
Doctor is In podcast.
So Now What? is sponsored by LDG Electronics, a family owned and operated
business with laboratories in southern Maryland that offers a wide array of
antenna tuners and other Amateur Radio products.
ARRL Communications Content Producer Michelle Patnode, W3MVP, and ARRL
Station Manager Joe Carcia, NJ1Q, co-host the podcast. Presented as a lively
conversation, with Patnode representing newer hams and Carcia the veteran
operators, the podcast will explore questions that newer hams may have and
the issues that keep participants from staying active in the hobby. Some
episodes will feature guests to answer questions on specific topic areas.
Listeners can find So Now What? on Apple iTunes, Blubrry, Stitcher (free
registration required, or browse the site as a guest) and through the free
Stitcher app for iOS, Kindle, or Android devices. Episodes will be archived
on the ARRL website.
The Weather Channel Cites "Old School Tech" Amateur Radio as Storm Resource
Julio Ripoll, WD4R, Amateur Radio Assistant Coordinator of WX4NHC at the
National Hurricane Center (NHC) explained Amateur Radio's role during severe
weather situations to interviewers from The Weather Channel (TWC). In a
September 16 segment headlined, "Using Old School Tech During a Storm,"
Ripoll -- seated at WX4NHC -- told Weather Channel interviewers Rick Knabb
and Mike Bettes, that information NHC forecasters receive via Amateur Radio
volunteers and spotters "sometimes fills in gaps they can't get from
satellites or reconnaissance."
Knabb recounted an occasion when he was trying to pin down information about
a storm system in Central America. "The only way I was able to accurately
document what happened with that system in Central America was because of
data through the ham radio operators that relayed it," he told Ripoll.
Ripoll cited the WX4NHC volunteer staff of approximately 30 radio amateurs
who gather and essentially screen information gathered via Amateur Radio for
weather data that may be of use to forecasters.
Over the weekend, Ripoll expressed appreciation to WX4NHC, Hurricane Watch
Net, and VoIP Hurricane Net volunteers for the time they donate during
hurricanes and the reports they send to WX4NHC.
"Sometimes, we sit for hours listening to static. Sometimes, we receive many
reports that are unremarkable. Sometimes, we receive very few reports. But
then there are those times that one or two reports make a difference,"
Ripoll said. He noted that NHC Hurricane Specialist Stacy Stewart cited
Amateur Radio in a Hurricane Humberto advisory.
The advisory noted, "An Amateur Radio operator at Ports Island near the
southern end of Bermuda reported a sustained wind of 75 MPH and a gust to
104 MPH during the past hour. An Amateur Radio operator in Somerset Village
recently reported a sustained wind of 70 MPH and a gust to 89 MPH." --

ARISS Invites Proposals to Host Ham Radio Contacts with Space Station Crew
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
member of the International Space Station crew. The deadline to submit a
proposal is November 30. Proposal information and documents are on the ARISS
website.
ARISS anticipates that contacts would take place between July 1 and December
31, 2020. Crew scheduling and ISS orbits will determine specific contact
dates. To make the most of 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.
Crew members aboard the International Space Station routinely conduct
scheduled Amateur Radio contacts throughout the year. These contacts are
approximately 10 minutes long and allow students to interact with the
astronauts through a question-and-answer session.
Amateur Radio organizations around the world -- with the support of NASA and
space agencies in Russia, Canada, Japan, and Europe -- make these contact
opportunities available to educational organizations. An ARISS contact is a
voice-only communication opportunity via Amateur Radio between astronauts
and cosmonauts aboard the space station and classrooms to educate students
about what it is like to live and work in space and to learn about space
research conducted on the ISS. Students will also have an opportunity to
learn about satellite communication, wireless technology, and radio science.
Amateur Radio organization volunteers provide the equipment and operational
support to enable communication between crew on the ISS and students around
the world using Amateur Radio.
Because of the nature of human spaceflight and the complexity of scheduling
activities aboard the ISS, organizations must demonstrate flexibility to
accommodate changes in contact dates and times.
Proposal information and more details, including expectations, proposal
guidelines, proposal forms, and dates and times of informational webinars,
are on the ARISS website.
Please direct any questions to ariss.us.education@gmail.com.

In Brief...
The International Lighthouse/Lightship Weekend (ILLW) will hold its 23rd
annual operating event in 2020 a week later than usual. The event is usually
held on the third full weekend in August, but this year, that date coincides
with the 75th anniversary of the cessation of hostilities in the Pacific
during World War II. "The organizers of the event have decided it would be
inappropriate to hold the ILLW event on the third full weekend of August
next year, as many stations will be involved in commemorating the important
anniversary of VP day, especially those bordering and within the Pacific
Rim," said ILLW Organizer and Webmaster Kevin Mulcahy, VK2CE. "We trust this
temporary move to August 22 - 23 will not inconvenience anyone." Mulcahy
said this year's 22nd annual event "was again very successful," with 426
stations in 50 countries, plus others who did not register participating.
"Several new countries and lighthouses were listed this year," he reported.
Australian Regulator Reinstates US Amateur Radio License Reciprocity The
Wireless Institute of Australia (WIA) reports Australia's communications
regulator, the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) is
reinstating the reciprocal arrangement for US Amateur Radio license holders.
"The reinstatement follows a period of suspension of reciprocity
precipitated by a complainant objecting to the granting of [Australian]
licenses," a WIA statement read. "The WIA believes that irrespective of the
motivations of the complainant to raise their objections, the impact of the
suspension was only to increase barriers to entry to Amateur Radio in
Australia, and was most unhelpful." The WIA expressed its pleasure that the
restriction was lifted. A reciprocal license is valid only for 12 months
from the date of issue and cannot be renewed or extended unless the holder
passes the local regulations examination.
Former ARRL North Texas Section Manager Phil Clements, K5PC, of Ben Wheeler,
Texas, died on September 23. An ARRL Life Member, he was 79. Clements served
as ARRL North Texas Section Communications Manager/Section Manager from 1979
until 1989. (ARRL changed the position title to Section Manager in 1984.)
Clements was a pilot for Braniff Airways and Airborne Express.
IARU Region 3 Provides for Satellite Uplinks on 15 Meters International
Amateur Radio Union Region 3 (Asia, Pacific) has approved a modified interim
band plan that provides Amateur Satellite uplink frequencies between 21.125
- 21.450 MHz. The IARU Region 1 and 2 band plans do not provide for Amateur
Satellite usage. "In all cases of conflict between a band plan and the
national regulations of a country, the latter shall prevail," the band plan
states. "However, it is not recommended to use frequencies outside of the
band plan for the Amateur Satellite Service, and it should be noted that the
IARU cannot coordinate Amateur Satellite usage of frequencies outside of the
band plan." The Region 3 directors met in Tokyo on September 2 - 3. --
