Tom,
You are welcome to use the one I gave at the Green Country Hamfest in
Claremore, OK, last Saturday, 14 April. I will be using it again for the
Fort Worth Kilocycle Club this Thursday evening, 19 April. You are welcome
to come and listen in. I'll even buy you Dinner at the Old South Pancake
House where we meet. It covers from Sputnik to GOLF but is heavy on ARISS.
The file is about 14 meg. I can send it to you direct, put it on Dropbox,
or you can pick it up at the KC Club meeting. We can discuss it further
tonight on the Metroplex AMSAT Net if you would like.

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

form, visit: http://www.ariss.org/hosting-an-ariss-contact-in-the-us.html

ARISS thanks everyone in advance for their assistance.? Feel free to send
your reports to aj9n@?????.??? or aj9n@???.???.

All ARISS contacts are made via the Kenwood radio unless otherwise noted.

I guess my 20 year old G-5400B doesn?t owe me anything more. I rebuilt the
EL rotor once about 15 years ago, today everything went haywire. It seems
the AZ stopped because of a poor terminal connection at the rotor. I no
sooner got that fixed, finding the rotor to the. Be completely out of
alignment, and the EL rotor quit functioning and then the smell of
something burning coming from the control box.
Any body have a control box they want to get rid of? I hate to do it but
I?ll probably have to bite the bullet and buy an entire new system.

Three years ago I had my rotator repaired by Larry Kramer - K6VLF.
He did a good job at a reasonable price and in a decent time frame.

Can you share a dropbox link with everyone?
I am working on starting a wiki with Brad, WF7T where it may be
useful. My personal goal with the wiki, at least at first is to
document frequently requested and often repeated information. Having a
page linking to various sat presentations seems like a good collection
to make.

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
