Right. The first seven were all issued prior to AO-10. For the record, the
first to actually work 100 DXCC entities via satellite was Pat, G3IOR. He
made heavy use of tropo scatter. Ever the good sport, Pat came over to the
States and presented Ben, W2BXA, with Certificate No. 1 at the AMSAT AGM.

First, congrats John, K8YSE on a remarkable accomplishment. Well done. I
always enjoy connecting with you via space.
I just finished a close to 2 week frustrating ordeal after my serial/usb
adapter suddenly failed and SATPC stopped doing its magic. Im running a
TS2K, SATPC and W7 pro on a Dell XPS with an I5 processor. Device manager
showed a faulty Prolific driver. Many driver downloads later of the
Prolific chip driver and the same for the driver in another Chinese chipped
adapter, still no joy. I even ran other versions of SATPC. There has been
much discussion in this forum about which are the best serial/usb
adapters/chipsets. Some do well with prolific, others not so much. However,
no one seems to have difficulty with the FTDI chipset. So I found a highly
rated adapter with the FTDI chip on Amazon, loaded the drivers from the
included disc, and.... no joy. I was ready to begin testing the serial port
on my TS2K when I ran across a post on the TS2K yahoo group forum
recommending use of the FTDI chip, but, most importantly, the writer
recommended dumping the disc and downloading the most recen
t driver from www.ftdichip.com<http://www.ftdichip.com>. There it was.
After re-booting everything, CAT kicked in and I was back in business.
I write this because I spent a ridiculous amount of time trying different
adapters, downloading drivers, rebooting in different order, and so forth
until getting the right combination of FTDI chip and current driver for W7
pro.
This issue has been discussed a lot here and on the TS2K yahoo group, but it
bears repeating. If you are having similar issues, perhaps you can benefit
from my time spent chasing this down.
73s and happy holidays to my many sat friends!

Hopefully someone from ARISS will chime in if I am wrong, but I believe that
the astronauts are only allowed to use frequencies that have been
pre-approved and ground-tested for safety with the ISS subsytems.
Also, you would only have to correct for the doppler shift of the satellite
you are listening/transmitting to. The ISS would have to correct for the
doppler on their end.

Friends,
Having hosted an ARISS contact myself earlier this year, I am well
aware of direct contacts
between the astronauts and someone on the ground.
The relevant part of the question was the part about the QSO being
*THROUGH an
AMATEUR RADIO SATELLITE TRANSPONDER*.
If you are aware of a success (or a failed attempt) I would be
interested in knowing
which astronaut and which amateur radio satellite was used.
Lastly, does anyone have a technical references for correcting
calculating the Doppler
for a QSO from ISS through a satellite to the ground? (And no, you can't
just change
the tracking program's ground station latitude/longitude every second to
match the ISS
satellite subpoint.)
Thanks and 73,
Douglas KA2UPW/5

Hi All,
Just to report that AO73/FUNcube-1 is now operating in full time
transponder mode and will continue in this mode until the evening of
Wednesday? 3rd January 2018.
Please enjoy the transponder during this happy holiday period!
Season's greetings from the whole FUNcube team.
73
Graham
G3VZV
General Info:
AO-73 FUNcube-1
The transponder is normally operational only when the satellite is in
eclipse, ie the solar panels are NOT being illuminated. During weekends
(from pm Fridays UTC to PM Sundays UTC) the transponder is operational 24/7.
When the transponder is switched off, the telemetry beacon is on full
power, when the transponder is on the beacon it is on low power.
The nominal transponder frequencies are:
Uplink: 435.150 ? 435.130 MHz LSB (Inverting)
Downlink: 145.950 ? 145.970 MHz USB
Telemetry Tx: 145.935 MHz BPSK
(The passband may be up to 15kHz higher depending on on-board temps.
Lower temperatures give higher freqs!)
FUNcube-2?(aka FUNcube on UKube)
The FUNcube-2 sub-system continues to operate autonomously and, almost
continuously, in amateur mode. The transponder is operational and the
telemetry downlink is functioning with about 70mW output. The FUNcube-1
Dashboard does not correctly display the telemetry but it does correctly
decode the data and uploads it to the FUNcube Data Warehouse from where
it can be examined. Most of the real time data channels are operational
and these include battery voltages, temperatures and ADCS data coming
via the main On Board Computer (OBC).
The transponder is interrupted for a few seconds every 2 minutes when
the other transmitter sends its CW beacon and, occasionally, for a few
seconds when the main OBC reboots (approx seven times each orbit).
The nominal transponder frequencies are:
Uplink: 435.080 ? 435.060 MHz LSB (Inverting)
Downlink: 145.930 ? 145.950 MHz USB
Telemetry Tx: 145.915 MHz BPSK
(The passband may be up to 10kHz higher depending on on-board temps. Low
temperatures give higher freqs!)
EO79
Dec 2017 Update ? As a result of on-board operational issues this
transponder is NOT currently active.
Due to power budget constraints the transponder cannot be operational
24/7 and an orbit specific schedule has been developed. The transponder
will commence operation 27 minutes after the spacecraft enters sunlight
and will stay on for a period of 25 minutes. This schedule may be
modified in future months as a result of experience.
The nominal transponder frequencies are:
Uplink: 435.0723-435.0473 MHz LSB (Inverting)
Downlink: 145.946-145.971 MHz USB
EO88/Nayif-1/FUNcube-5
EO88 is presently operating in autonomous mode. The transponder is
operational when the satellite is in eclipse, ie the solar panels are
NOT being illuminated.
When the transponder is switched off, the telemetry beacon is on full
power, when the transponder is on the beacon it is on low power.
The transponder frequencies are:
Uplink: 435.045 ? 435.015 MHz LSB (inverting)
Downlink: 145.960-145.990 MHz USB
Telemetry Tx: 145.940MHz

George,
ISS has specific amateur frequencies they have setup to operate on.? Voice
channels below are from the ISS Fan Club page for voice comms.? Of course
during SSTV events they are heard on 145.800 and APRS on 145.825.? The ISS
repeater UHF uplink and 145.800 downlink was active on an alternate UHF
uplink for a while a couple months ago mainly for experimentation with two
satellite that were launched to relay their signals on the VHF downlink.? I
a few stations made contacts through it when it was on, myself included.? It
is always worth checking both 145.800 and 145.825 on a pass over your QTH.?
I had a quick QSO with Mike Foale a few years ago by doing that and just
happened to catch him on the voice channel.? On the VHF channels there is no
need to adjust for Doppler.? It would be nice to see the astronauts on the
voice channel more.? I know the last couple of years they have not been
active during Field Day.
Amateur Radio Frequencies?(Note: Only one mode active at a time)?FM VOICE
for ITU Region 1:?Europe-Middle East-Africa-North Asia
- Downlink 145.800
- Uplink 145.200
FM VOICE for ITU Region 2&3:?North and South
America-Caribbean-Greenland-Australia-South Asia
- Downlink 145.800
- Uplink 144.490
