Announcing a major rove for satellite operators; the Springtime Rove to The
Great White North!
Doug Tabor, N6UA and Ken Alexander, VE3HLS will be teaming up to travel
north to the James Bay area of Quebec to activate as many FO grids as are
accessible by road, in the time we have.? Our plan is to leave Toronto on
May 5th, entering FO the next day, and spending 7 to 8 days activating rare
grids.
This area is extremely remote.? The James Bay Road is the main corridor
through the area and was built by Quebec Hydro to support construction of a
province-wide network of hydroelectric projects.? It's 610 km long.? There
are gas stations at each end and another somewhere in the middle.? Likewise,
the Route du Nord is a 406 km gravel road with no services.? There is no
cellphone service once you leave Matagami, QC, the southern terminus of the
James Bay Road.? We will only have internet access when we get to a town.?
The road will take us through, and give us access to
FO01/02/03/10/11/12/13/20/21/22/23.
With so many satellites currently available, having two operators will
insure that everyone will have a chance to work one of us.? If two
satellites are in view at the same time, we'll be on both of them!? We will
also allocate ourselves so as to be present on as many FM satellites as are
available to us.
Our plans aren't complete yet.? We may activate other grids, or be forced to
rein in our expectations depending on available time and the conditions we
encounter.? We will provide updates in the coming weeks.

Greg,

I've had success getting my SDRPlay RSP2 to work on my Kubuntu (14.04 I
believe) laptop and a Raspberry Pi 2B running Raspbian Jessie. On both
platforms, I used gqrx as the SDR software and SoapySDR as the interface
between gqrx and the SDRPlay drivers.? Note that on the Raspberry Pi 2
I had to keep the sampling rate down (400 ksps) and the waterfall
size at about 2K samples in order to prevent stuttering.? Given that I'm
going to use the RSP2 for satellite reception, this was not a great
sacrifice.? A Raspberry Pi 3B or 3B+ would be a better choice.

73,

******************************************************************************

International Space Station Astronauts are Calling CQ Students (corrected)

?????????????? ARISS-US program education proposal deadline is April 30, 2018

?

March 15, 2018:? The Amateur Radio on the International Space Station
(ARISS) program is seeking proposals from US schools, museums, science
centers and community youth organizations (working individually or together)
to host radio contacts with an orbiting crew member aboard the International
Space Station (ISS) between January 1 and June 30, 2019.

?

Each year, ARISS provides tens of thousands of students with opportunities
to learn about space technologies and communications through the exploration
of Amateur Radio.? The program provides learning opportunities by connecting
students to astronauts aboard the International Space Station (ISS) through
a partnership between NASA, the Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation, the
American Radio Relay League, and other Amateur Radio organizations and
worldwide space agencies. The program?s goal is to inspire students to
pursue interests and careers in science, technology, engineering and
mathematics (STEM) and Amateur Radio. A ham recently said, ?ARISS shows how
Amateur Radio is the most unique hobby/service there is.?

?

Educators overwhelmingly report that student participation in the ARISS
program stimulates interest in STEM subjects and in STEM careers. One
educator wrote, ?It exceeded our expectations--it created a great interest
in both amateur radio and in space exploration. Our kids are completely
inspired!? Ninety-two percent of educators who have participated in the
program have indicated that ARISS provided ideas for encouraging student
exploration and participation. An educator even joined the ham ranks,
saying, ?This chance for our school?s ARISS contact helped me see the great
value of the ham world.? I just passed my Technician License this weekend
and have already signed up to take a General class.?? ?


ARISS is looking for organizations that will draw large numbers of
participants and integrate the contact into a well-developed, exciting
education plan. Students can learn about satellite communications, wireless
technology, science research conducted on the ISS, radio science, and any
related STEM subject. Students learn to use Amateur Radio to talk directly
to an astronaut and ask their STEM-related questions. ARISS will help
educational organizations locate Amateur Radio groups who can assist with
equipment for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for students.

The proposal deadline for 2019 contacts is April 30, 2018. Proposal webinars
for guidance and getting questions answers will be offered March 29, 2018,
at 7 p.m. EDT and April 16, 2018, at 4 p.m. EDT. Advance registration is
necessary. To sign up, go to
https://ariss-proposal-webinar-spring-2018.eventbrite.com

That's a good price for a tank of an rig. I had one I used with a FT-100 in
a laptop case for a long while, including several trips to Europe.

For those with 2m all mode receive capability, here is your ticket to all
but one of the current linear transponders.

Content-Type: text/plain;	charset=us-ascii

Hello, AMSAT People!

Previously I have used an FT-897 and FT-817 with an Arrow to get on the birds.

I also used a Heil Traveler with this combination: the RJ-45 plugged into
the FT-897, and the RCA plug in the FT-817.

The FT-897 was always for transmitting, and the FT-817 was always for
receiving.

This has worked very well!

Recently I wanted to carry lighter equipment. So, I obtained a second
FT-817. The idea is for it to replace the FT-897.

However!

Despite my best efforts, I cannot make the Heil work. It will not key the
transmitter of either FT-817 unless the headset speakers are also connected
to the same FT-817.

As well, one of my favorite features of the FT-897 was that it would send CW
when in SSB mode using the up/down buttons on the Heil.

This does not work with the FT-817.

The stock Yaesu mic keys everything fine. It does not plug anything into the
audio out jack.

Any experts have an idea what I mean ssed?

Many thanks!

> it would send CW when in SSB mode using the up/down buttons on the Heil.


Menu item 36 must be set to ON on the 817 TX rig AND the Keyer must be
turned on... to do that, hit 'F', then spin the SEL knob to [VOX, BK, KYR]
and make sure a black Arrow icon to the right of 'KYR' is there. If not,
press the 'C' button to activate the Keyer. - If these are set correctly and
the +/- buttons still do not activate the CW keyer... it sounds like a sign
of a ground problem between the headset and the RJ-45 jack, which is what I
think is going on with the lack of PTT when the speaker audio is not plugged
in. (See below.)



> It will not key the transmitter of either FT-817 unless the headset
speakers are also connected to the same FT-817.


My Heil Traveler Dual will key my 817 without the headset speaker audio plug
connected. I would suspect a ground problem going to the RJ-45 mic plug.
Check continuity of the ground line between the 8 pin round plug and the
RJ-45 plug... there are TWO Grounds and they are SEPARATE in the Heil
adapter cable! Mic Ground is for the mic only and Ground is for the
switches. - You will likely need to find a piece of very small gauge wire to
make contact with the RJ45 contacts as a typical VOM probe will not fit in
those small grooves. Unless you have a spare, unconnected RJ-45 jack
handy... even better!


Heil Traveler Pinout: 1 Mic, 2 NC, 3 + Switch, 4 ? Switch, 5 PTT Switch, 6
Ground, 7 Mic GND, 8 Earphone -- The outer metal shell of the 8 pin plug is
not connected to ground, and should not show a connection to any of the
pins. The +, - and PTT switches will make connection between their
respective pins and ground (pin 6) when closed. The pin numbers should be
visible on the female side of the 8 pin connection, visually transpose those
locations for the male side.


For the 817 mic jack pinout, you can consult the 817 manual (page 5 in my
817ND manual). If you don't have one, the order is: Fast, GND, PTT, Mic, Mic
GND, +5v, Up(+ switch), Down(- switch)  However the direction that order
goes depends on which way you are looking at the jack/plug... if I have the
plug laying contacts up & clip down with the end facing me (cable running
away) that would be the L-R order. If turned around, it would be R-L... you
should be able to figure it out. =^)


You might check them all, but you want to make sure that the Heil Pin 6 goes
to the RJ45 ground and should also show continuity to the speaker plug
ground. (Also check that Heil pin 7 goes to mic ground on the RJ45 and that
pin ONLY... it should not have continuity with the other ground connections;
while unplugged, of course.) If these are not all correct, you have likely
found your problem... Because it sounds like to me, you get PTT return
through the ground connection of the speaker audio plug. When you disconnect
that and there is no connection between Pin 6 and the appropriate RJ45
contact, no ground for either the PTT OR for the up/down buttons! (as
referenced above)


If the above still doesn't locate the 'lack of PTT' then the next step would
be to check the mic jack contacts in the radios. But if you DO determine
that the cable is missing a proper Pin 6 ground, then it means a new
adapter, a new RJ45 plug, or in a pinch, you might just ground the two
radios together. (not the best practice, but it'll do in a pinch) - Which
this all gets me thinking... quick short cuts... do you have another Heil
Traveler adapter for RJ45 yaesu? try swapping them. Also, might plug up just
the RJ45 part of the adapter and check pin 6 to radio case ground (BNC jack
shield on front). If that's good, it's something else.


If you need any more help or clarification, include my offlist e-mail
address to be sure and get my attention quicker.  73, Kevin N4UFO

Graham,

Confirm it is and working fine, just heard myself very well through the bird
in the middle of Indian Ocean.

Also the telemetry was captured fine and uploaded.

Thanks for keeping us informed of the schedule.
