Here is an island activation that falls in between the AMSAT News Service
bulletin cycles ...

  EU-008.  Members of the Camb-Hams will once again be active as GS3PYE/P,
           but this time from Islay Island between May 13-18th. The Camb-
           Hams have been activating the Scottish Isles each year since
           2008. As in the past, ten or more operators will be active on
           all bands and many modes from 4m to 80m, 2m & 70cm for Satellites
           and 2m & 23cm for EME. The HF bands will be covered by four
           simultaneous stations while the 6m & 4m stations will have a
           great take-off towards the UK and Europe. All stations will be
           able to run at the full UK power limit. EME operations will use
           150W to 55 elements on 23cm and 400W to 17 elements on 2m,
           primarily on JT65, but also available for CW skeds - if your
           station is big enough. Satellite operations on 2m & 70cm will
           use X-Quad antennas and a fully automatic Az/El tracking system.
           Activity is planned on AO-7 (mode B), VO-52, FO-29, SO-50 &
           AO-73. All the up-to-date plans and progress will be on
           <dx.camb-hams.com>. Most importantly, this is a group of good
           friends doing what they enjoy, so please give them a call and
           enjoy the trip with them. They will be active on the major
           social networks before, during and after the trip, you can
           check on their progress and interact with the operators via
           their blog <dx.camb-hams.com> or through Twitter, Facebook
           and YouTube [see links below]. Please check their Web page for
           details on how to arrange skeds on the more challenging bands,
           modes, VHF and EME. All links are available via:

   Many thanks Scott,

   I noted 437.225 for 1KUNS-PF, so my question about a signal on
437.300... Yes, the signal is strong and, reading your reply, I tried
1K2 BPSK, USB as usual, but don't succeed.

   Ubakusat and Irazu are decoding OK.

   Thank you again Scott, 73!

Hi,
I have added? CAT control of the FT-991/FT-991A to SatPC32 and would?
appreciate if someone else tested? the new? .exe file before I replace
the setup files.
The file can be downloaded here:
http://www.dk1tb.de/SatPC_Files_f_FT991.zip
The zip file contains the modified? SatPC32.exe (English version), 2
little data files and an instruction file.

I connected the FT-991A to the PC via a RS-232 cable and (after
installation of the USB driver) also via it's USB port. Both connections
work (the USB connection only via the "Enhanced" port).

73s, Erich, DK1TB

CAMSAT, the Chinese Amateur Satellite Group, has submitted requests to
the IARU for frequency coordination for three new amateur satellites.

CAS-5A is a 6U CubeSat with several amateur transponders: A 30 kHz
wide 15 meter to 10 meter linear transponder, a 15 kHz wide 15 meter
to 70 cm linear transponder, a 30 kHz wide 2 meter to 70 cm linear
transponder, and a 2 meter to 70 cm FM repeater. The satellite also
has 10 meter and 70 cm CW beacons as well as a 70 cm 4.8k / 9.6k GMSK
telemetry downlink.

CAS-5B is a 90 mm L x 80 mm W x 50 mm H 0.5 kg femtosatellite with a
70 cm CW beacon.

CAS-5A and CAS-5B are scheduled to launch in September from Jiuguan
Launch Center into a 539 km x 533 km 97.5 degree inclination orbit.

CAS-6 is an amateur payload aboard a 50 kg microsatellite with a 20
kHz wide 70 cm to 2 m linear transponder, a VHF CW beacon, and a 4.8k
GMSK telemetry downlink. Launch is planned from a Sea Launch Pad from
the China Academy of Launch Vehicle Technology in September into a 579
x 579 km 45 degree inclination orbit.

CAS-5A coordination request:

After reading  Ray's reminder that the old kep bulletins are online, I
tried an experiment running SatPC32 WinAOS for a 24 hour period using the
current keps (from last Friday's bulletin) and a set from the end of March
(~45 days, which is about how many days there are until Field Day give or
take).  Summary of results for all the regularly operating FM and SSB
satellites I can reach here and ISS:

78 passes at 5 deg or better in 24 hours
Excluding ISS, largest AOS difference was 1 minute (assuming SatPC32 rounds
to nearest minute, call it 1:30).
Differences in predicted period (length) of pass were 1 minute, including
ISS; roughly evenly distributed between shorter and longer.
Differences in predicted max elevation was up to 7 degrees, average was
0.95 deg.  The largest differences were associated with higher elevation
passes, so not a big impact on ability to use.

I didn't check for horizon skimmers where a small change in the
calculations could result in no pass or a marginal pass.

Conclusion:  For general planning purposes, keplerian element data is
useful at least 1.5 months out.  Possibly longer.  I'd be much more careful
for planning a max distance attempt (horizon skimmers at both ends) and old
keps are probably useless for computer-control of radios and antennas.

And my planning for Field Day is going to be relatively unchanged.
