Lost friend.

This e-mail request came through the NTARC web site contact facility this week.

Message: “Hello my name is Jose Babin. I used to run the Moutain View Country Inn in Deloraine. I am trying to get in contact with a friend I met 24 years ago in Tasmania. He is a

French radio amateur. I only know his first name Patrick and his wifes name Christianne.

Patrick and Christiane were living in Tasmania and he was a Baker. When we left Tasmania in 2002 they were living around Liffey falls.

If you know him could you please ask him to call me on 0409622630” 

I have replied to Jose and told him I will ask around, what better method than the weekly broadcast, well it is worth a try. I am assuming Jose isnt an amateur.

If anyone remembers or knows of a French amateur named Patrick give Jose a call or send me an e-mail and I will pass the information on.

Thursday Night SSTV Nets

There was no net on ANZAC day.

But remember Ken VK7KRJs and Steve VK7OOs fully automatic 24/7 monitoring sites that allow anyone who has sent an SSTV picture the ability to check them on their pages almost immediately, any time, both South and North Tasmania.

If you missed any nets then there are archives of all SSTV nights. These photos can be seen on Kens and Steves SSTV websites or on NTARCs website under blogs and arranged as weekly nets. 

There is no suggested theme for next weeks net.

Last broadcast I reported that, “This certainly has been a very quiet week as far as anything of a newsworthy nature goes”. It turns out that I probably shouldnt have said that! Before the broadcast went to air our club rooms suffer a break-in. 

Early in the morning when Ros arrived and entered by the main door she was greeted by a sea of white powder, covering everything, with sunlight streaming in through where the window once resided. The window was no more, not just a broken pane of glass but a completely destroyed and removed window frame as well. Externally the window security screen was bent out of the way and a large number of bricks had parted company with the wall under both the rear windows. After the police visit and the ascertaining of the damage the priority was to secure the rather substantial hole in the wall. A quick visit to a local hardware supplier, a few hours of enthusiastic carpentry and the window opening was framed with 4 by 2 inch timbers and double lined with a couple of 8 by 4 feet sheets of plywood. Stuart VK7FEAT, Ian VK7IH, and Jacob, a helpful Rover Scout, showcased impressive woodworking skills, and our club room was once again secure - thanks, fellows!

Now, lets discuss how we fared during the break-in. Fortunately, the contents of the radio room remained untouched - the door and lock withstood the force of an axe until the intruders gave up or lost interest. None of our radios or radio equipment were damaged or stolen, including our collection of vintage radios.

However, we did suffer losses elsewhere. One laptop display, a couple of monitors, a large TV used by the Scouts for Zoom meetings, and a sizable projection screen are no longer usable or salvageable. 

Cleaning up proved to be quite a task. It took several days of solid work to sweep, vacuum, and swab up the residue from half a dozen discharged dry powder fire extinguishers. That powder seems to infiltrate every nook and cranny. 

At least the main club room was once again usable for our Tech Night session on Wednesday. Well continue with the rest of our activities as planned. 

Speaking of the Club Technical night Ross VK7ALH brought in an original Yaesu FT-ONE that he has been working on. This model first appeared in 1981 and this one is still in excellent condition. There are signs of it having undergone a few mods over the years, with the most obvious being the conversion to DC operation only. The manufactured weight came in at 17 Kg, even though there is no longer a mains transformer it still remains a substantial unit. 

There is extensive use of large chassis mounted edge connectors throughout, this allows all  printed circuit boards to be removed easily and re-inserted again using the guides and push seated into the edge connectors. The Random Access Memory requires backup or a holding voltage to maintain its programmed content, this is accomplished by three “AA” cells in a holder. Luckily Ross also had circuit diagrams and took us through his reasoning and testing to isolate the fault to the Automatic Level Control (ALC) section and most likely down to one particular device. We await the results after the new FET arrives, thanks Ross. 

Lionel VK7ZLB brought in a battery compartment from a circa 1970 Amalgamated Wireless Australia or AWA for short, F240 manual Distortion and Noise measurement set.  The item being a battery compartment might give you some hint as to what follows…. Yes it still did contain six “C” cells and yes they probably had been in situ since last century. I will call them Duracell Alkaline lookalikes to avoid any trouble, but need I say any more?  Lionel is in for a long stint of corrosion removal and restoration. Luckily the battery enclosure is made from very sturdy plastic and the enclosure terminals appear to be in surprisingly good condition, obviously AWA used some decent quality materials, way back when Australia manufactured equipment!

As always, pictures will be available on the NTARC Web site under “Blogs” for this broadcast.

UPCOMING EVENTS

TestNet and TechNet session - Every Wednesday, TestNet/CW course on 3.580MHz from 7 pm till 7.30 pm, then a TechNet on 3.567MHz from 7.30 pm till about 8.30 pm. Your host for the evening will be Nic VK7WW.

Coffee Morning - held every Friday in the NTARC Club rooms. Time is from 10 am to noon and we look forward to seeing you all there. So why not pop in and join us for a cuppa, there is endless tea and coffee along with biscuits available for a donation.   

Club Room Technical night session - The next session will be on Wednesday the 8th May and will commence at the usual time of 6.30 pm, running through to about 9 pm, at the Club Room Archer Street, Rocherlea.

Finally - A reminder to all members that if you have any items of news you would like added to our weekly roundup, no matter how trivial, then please email them to the Secretary at the following address news(at)ntarc.net all items to be received no later than 5 pm on the Friday prior to the Broadcast.

May Presentation - Save the Date
“Pop” Medhurst XFM - Tasmanian Wireless Pioneer

https://www.reast.asn.au/news-events/upcoming-events/?event_id1=2149

This Wednesday night is REASTs May presentation night and should be a fascinating night of finding out about a true Tasmanian telegraphy, telephony and amateur wireless pioneer - F.W. “Pop” Medhurst who started his wireless experimentation with callsign XFM then A7AH then VK7AH.

Did you realise that Pop actually got his callsign XFM in the very year Marconi demonstrated wireless?

Do you know that Pop invented and patented the equivalent of the iPhone today and sold it across the world at the turn of the 20th Century?

Are you maybe interested in what Hobart looked like in the 1920s, 30s and 50s and what Amateur Radio Field Days looked like back in the 1930s?

If so, have we got a deal for you this Wednesday night the 1st May 2024 from 7:30pm in the Queens Domain Clubrooms and it will also go out on DVB/T RF and via the REAST YouTube Channel streaming service.

This should be a great night, see you there.

May Special Forum
Field Day Operation

https://www.reast.asn.au/news-events/upcoming-events/?event_id1=2160

You may have seen those operators out in the bush or on top of a mountain with their antennas, batteries and rigs making contacts around the world and thought, I really wish I could do that!

The format will be a forum getting everyone together to share their experience, tricks of the trade, epic or not so epic fails and hints and tips of operating portable and mobile.

If you have any experience operating outside your shack be it through a contest, SOTA, POTA, WWFF, VKFF or Silos or some other “OTA” then please come along and share your experience with the group.

Bring along your “tricks of the trade” and show them off.

It will happen on Wednesday 8th May from 7:30pm in the Queens Domain Clubrooms.

The event will be streamed with an open chat channel where we will take questions and go out on DVB-T RF.

See you there.

June Presentation
Glitching Pulsars - the sequel we have all been waiting for!

https://www.reast.asn.au/news-events/upcoming-events/?event_id1=2163

Just after the discovery of pulsars by Jocelyn Bell in the late 60s, we have known about pulsars glitching. For 50 years astronomers have been trying to catch a glitch live with a large radio telescope. All failed.

Until in 2018 an unknown Tasmanian did what no one else in the world  had. And it got him published in the worlds most prestigious journal. 

What is a glitch? What is a pulsar? And what happened that made Nature publish his paper?

Dr Jim Palfreyman will present the sequel to his 2012 REAST talk. And like Godfather 2 and The Empire Strikes Back, it will be better than the original.

See you at the Queen's Domain Clubrooms on 5 June 2024 from 7:30pm. Presentation will be live and streamed via the REAST YouTube Channel.

https://www.youtube.com/live/NzMjN1eNDuE?si=-xindYFoEVZl-1vj

The Wednesday Experimenters Group last Wednesday night was a retrospective of the Equine Endurance Event Experience or what we in the trade call the QuadE.

We got some Equine Endurance first timers into the studio to talk about their experience operating radios at checkpoints and on base. We started with Jim VK7JDZ who came up with Brian VK7BW for the two day event and camped overnight at the checkpoint. Jim related his learning that included not take quite so much next time and the great camping and friendship over the weekend.

Justin VK7TW related getting up at 5am and waking to an Aurora Australis and some pictures were shown. Harry VK7HXT and Xavier VK7XHJ then came into the studio and talked about their experience and highlights, Harry was on a checkpoint and Xavier was on Base with Justin.

We are all looking forward to the Tom Quilty trial event at Sassafras in mid-May. 

We then moved to an update on the status of Voyager 1 that is back online billions of kilometers away!

Justin then related about the many NBN Cable labels that are currently falling off and reusing for amateur radio shack cable labeling. We then took a look at the Arduino DUE and finished the night with a Space Weather report and Future Presentations.

We get back underway with our WEGs group in three weeks time.

See you there or on the stream.

'Curving' light beams could enable terahertz comms

Scientists know that in the near future theyll need to transition to much higher communication frequencies than what current systems rely on, but before that can happen there are a number of quite literal obstacles standing in the way. Now, researchers from Brown University and Rice University say theyve come one step closer to getting around these solid obstacles, including walls, furniture and even people.

Current systems rely on microwave radiation to carry data, but its become clear that the future standard for transmitting data will make use of terahertz waves, which have as much as 100 times the data-carrying capacity of microwaves. One longstanding issue has been that, unlike microwaves, terahertz signals can be blocked by most solid objects, making a direct line of sight between transmitter and receiver a logistical requirement.

“Most people probably use a Wi-Fi base station that fills the room with wireless signals,” said Daniel Mittleman, a professor in Browns School of Engineering. “No matter where they move, they maintain the link.

“At the higher frequencies that were talking about here, you wont be able to do that anymore. Instead, its going to be a directional beam. If you move around, that beam is going to have to follow you in order to maintain the link, and if you move outside of the beam or something blocks that link, then youre not getting any signal.”

In the new study, Mittleman and his colleagues introduced the concept of self-accelerating beams. These are special configurations of electromagnetic waves that naturally bend or curve to one side as they move through space. The beams have previously been studied at optical frequencies but are now being explored for terahertz communication.

Using this idea as a jumping off point, the researchers engineered transmitters with carefully designed patterns so that the system can manipulate the strength, intensity and timing of the electromagnetic waves that are produced. With this ability to manipulate the light, the researchers make the waves work together more effectively to maintain the signal when a solid object blocks a portion of the beam.

Essentially, the light beam adjusts to the blockage by shuffling data along the patterns the researchers engineered into the transmitter. When one pattern is blocked, the data transfers to the next one, and then the next one if that is blocked. This keeps the signal link fully intact. Without this level of control, when the beam is blocked, the system cant make any adjustments, so no signal gets through.

This effectively makes the signal bend around objects as long as the transmitter is not completely blocked. If it is completely blocked, another way of getting the data to the receiver will be needed.

“Curving a beam doesnt solve all possible blockage problems, but what it does is solve some of them and it solves them in a way thats better than what others have tried,” said Hichem Guerboukha, who led the study as a postdoctoral researcher at Brown and is now an assistant professor at the University of Missouri–Kansas City.

The researchers validated their findings through extensive simulations and experiments navigating around obstacles to maintain communication links with high reliability and integrity, with their results published in the journal Communications Engineering. The work builds on a previous study from the team that showed terahertz data links can be bounced off walls in a room without dropping too much data.

“This is the worlds first curved data link; a critical milestone in realising the 6G vision of high data rate and high reliability,” said Edward Knightly, a professor of electrical and computer engineering at Rice University.

By using these curved beams, the researchers hope to one day make wireless networks more reliable, even in crowded or obstructed environments. This could lead to faster and more stable internet connections in places like offices or cities where obstacles are common. Before getting to that point, however, theres much more basic research to be done and plenty of challenges to overcome as terahertz communication technology is still in its infancy.

“One of the key questions that everybody asks us is how much can you curve and how far away,” Mittleman said. “Weve done rough estimations of these things, but we havent really quantified it yet, so we hope to map it out.”
