One alternative for scoring could be to adopt the approach used for
Winter Field Day.? For Winter Field Day, a station can net a 1500-point
bonus for one satellite QSO.? There are no additional points for
subsequent QSOs.? Not saying that 1500 points would be awarded for
an ARRL Field Day satellite QSO, but more than 100 points.

The Winter FD event is new, and has a much smaller participation
compared to the summer event. I don't think what worked for the winter
event can scale to the summer one. Imagine the chaos that would be
caused by having a large prize awarded for a satellite contact in the
summer event, causing a correspondingly large number of participants to
attempt a contact. It would certainly bring additional attention and
interest in making a satellite contact; perhaps too much.
But, your point about not having additional points awarded is good;
perhaps even take away points for multiple contacts on the FM birds.

Greg,
Yeah.? Icertainly wouldn't make the bonus too much larger than 100
points.? Don't know how one would penalize for multiple QSOs. You
might make the one you need and then another station would call you.
I'd keep it at only one QSO allowed for the bonus and nothing more.
This would allow for a station to work others to help them get their
bonus, too, but only if that station wanted to help.? My guess is that
a lot of stations would bow out once they got their one QSO. That, I
hope, would free up the FM satellites fairly quickly.

Great Field Day weekend. Participated with my local club DLARC here in
Northampton County, Pa. Mainly worked Satellite & HF. Got the Sat bonus for
them in the first hour of FD on AO-7. Gave many demonstrations & several sat
q's. Worked linear sats only. Steve NS3L (AKA W3OK)

Unfortunately I heard way too many groups working multiple stations on FM
satellites clearly violating that rule during FD.

Subject: [amsat-bb] Upcoming ARISS contact with
Werner-Heisenberg-Gymnasium, Leverkusen, Germany
Message-ID: <A4424FD8E5F34E68A57E6A263C030293@???>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"
An International Space Station school contact has been planned with
participants at Werner-Heisenberg-Gymnasium, Leverkusen, Germany on 27 June.
The event is scheduled to begin at approximately 10:32 UTC. The duration of
the contact is approximately 9 minutes and 30 seconds. The contact will be
direct between DP0ISS from the ISS and DL0IL/DL0SGH. The contact should be
audible over Germany and adjacent areas. Interested parties are invited to
listen in on the 145.80 MHz downlink. The contact is expected to be
conducted in English.
School Story:
Werner-Heisenberg-Gymnasium
Das Werner-Heisenberg-Gymnasium war eine der ersten Schulen, die dem MINT-EC
- einem nationalen Netzwerk naturwissenschaftlicher Exzellenz-Schulen -
beigetreten ist und bietet das Internationale Abitur (International
Baccalaureate) an.
Ein weiterer Schwerpunkt ist der franz?sisch-bilinguale Zweig.
Wir haben sichergestellt, dass die naturwissenschaftliche und sprachliche
Ausrichtung gleichzeitig verfolgt werden k?nnen, da die Begabungen der
Sch?ler in diesen Bereichen oft korrespondieren.
Das Leitmotiv des WHG ist: Gemeinschaft entwickeln, Pers?nlichkeit st?rken,
gerne und erfolgreich lernen.
Im MINT-Bereich werden zun?chst solide Grundlagen in den F?chern Mathematik,
Physik, Chemie und Biologie geschaffen, aber auch Zusatzkurse in Astronomie
und Informatik angeboten. In den fach?bergreifenden
Differenzierungskursen Science und Physik-Technik der 8. und 9. Klasse liegt
der Schwerpunkt auf praktischer
Arbeit und Anwendungen. Die Sch?ler arbeiten in Kleingruppen, suchen sich
ihr eigenes Forschungsprojekt und stellen es am Ende auf einer "Science
Fair" einer Jury vor.
Au?erdem gibt es ein vielf?ltiges AG-Angebot: Die Jazzband und die Theater
AG haben vielbeachtete Auftritte in der Region und die Astronomie AG hat ein
ma?stabsgetreues Planetensystem auf den Schulhof gezeichnet und betreibt
Mond- und Planetenfotografie.
In den franz?sisch-bilingualen Klassen gibt es zus?tzliche
Franz?sischstunden und die F?cher Geschichte, Erdkunde und Politik werden
auf Franz?sisch unterrichtet. Mit ihrem Abitur haben die Sch?ler dieses
Zweiges dann Zugang zu franz?sischen Universit?ten.
Ein weiterer Schwerpunkt ist die Sozialerziehung. So machen z.B. in Klasse 9
alle Sch?ler ein zweiw?chiges Sozialpraktikum in Behindertenwerkst?tten,
Pflegeheimen oder Kinderg?rten, um fr?hzeitig ihre soziale Verantwortung und
Hilfsbereitschaft zu f?rdern.

Werner-Heisenberg-Gymnasium
The Werner-Heisenberg-Gymnasium in Leverkusen was among the first schools
that joined the national MINT-EC network of excellence schools in science
and is an IB world school offering its students the International
Baccalaureate (IB).
Another focus is set on language in our French-German bilingual program.
Care has been taken that both degrees may be pursued simultaneously as we
have found that one talent is often connected to the other.
The WHG mission is: To build and develop a social community, to strengthen
personality and character, and to enjoy and succeed in learning.
In STEM classes, students focus on core subjects like mathematics, physics,
chemistry and biology with additional optional courses in astronomy and
computer science. In 8th and 9th grade, students take science classes
covering interdisciplinary subjects with a special application focus. In
small groups, students define and research their own projects, which they
present to a jury from local industry during a science fair at the end of
9th grade.
In addition, there is a diverse choice of project courses (AGs): Our
students may join the Jazz band or the Theater AG, which are well-known for
their performances. The Astronomy AG has constructed a large, scaled version
of the solar system in the schoolyard and has specialized in moon and planet
photography.
In the French-bilingual class, more lessons are allocated to French, and
history, geography and politics are taught in French. With their high school
diplomas, students in this branch are granted access to French universities.
Complementary to science and language education, WHG also focuses on social
education: In 9th grade, students participate in a mandatory practical
training at a social organization (kindergarten, hospital, retirement or
nursing home, work with handicapped or homeless people) to help develop
social responsibility.
Schickhardt-Gymnasium
Unsere Schule, das Schickhardt-Gymnasium Herrenberg, befindet sich in einer
kleinen Stadt s?dlich von Stuttgart.
Diese liegt in einer weltweit anerkannten Technologie-Region, bekannt u. a.
f?r ihre Automobilindustrie und
Informationstechnik, sowie f?r ihre altehrw?rdigen Universit?ten und ihre
Geschichte.
Neben den ?blichen F?chern,
wie z. B. Mathematik, Deutsch, Englisch, Sport, Kunst, Musik und
Sozialwissenschaften, spiegelt sich das in den
Profilen unserer Schule wider, aus denen die Sch?ler_innen ihren Schwerpunkt
w?hlen d?rfen: Auf der einen Seite
das Sprachen-Profil mit Franz?sisch, Spanisch und Latein als
Wahlm?glichkeit. Auf der anderen Seite das
naturwissenschaftliche Profil mit den F?chern NwT (Naturwissenschaft und
Technik), Biologie, Physik, Informatik
und Chemie. Beide Profile sind dar?ber hinaus sichtbar in den angebotenen
Arbeitsgemeinschaften und
Austauschprogrammen: z. B. Aerospace Lab, Robotik, ISS, Theater, Musical,
Druck und das KuCa (organisiert
kulturelle Veranstaltungen - in dem unter anderem Professor Dr. Heinz
Voggenreiter einen Vortrag halten wird).
Desweiteren gibt es soziale Projekte, wie z. B. Fairtrade, Model United
Nations, Schule gegen Rassismus und
Casa-Alianza. Austauschprogramme existieren mit Schweden, Frankreich, den
USA, Botswana und Ungarn.
Das Schickhardt-Gymnasium mit seinen rund 750 Sch?ler_innen und 70
Lehrer_innen ist stolz Teil des ARISS-Projektes
zu werden. Unser Projekt-Team besteht aus Sch?ler_innen unterschiedlicher
Alterstufen, angetrieben durch ihre
jeweils eigenen Interessen in Weltraum, Technik, Raumfahrt, Journalismus und
vielen weiteren Spezialgebieten,
um das Projekt Wirklichkeit werden zu lassen.
Schickhardt-Gymnasium
Our school, the Schickhardt-Gymnasium, is located in Herrenberg which is a
small city south of Stuttgart.
This is in the heart of a region known nationally and internationally for
technology (i. e. automobiles) and
IT advancement but also for its old universities and its history.
Beyond the regular subjects like Maths, German,
English, P.E., Arts, and social sciences, this is reflected in the profiles
our school offers from which the
students can choose their focus. On the the one hand, the language profile
with French, Spanish and Latin as
options. On the other hand, we have the profile of natural sciences and
technology, i. e. NwT (science and
technology), Biology, Physics, IT and Chemistry. Both profiles are also
visible in the clubs and exchanges
which are offered: Aerospace Lab, Robotics, ISS, Theatre, Musical, Print and
the KuCa (which organizes cultural
events - among others a presentation by Professor Dr. Heinz Voggenreiter),
among others. Students are also
dedicated to social projects, e. g. Fairtrade, Model United Nations, schools
against racism and the
aid-organization Casa-Alianza. Exchanges go to Sweden, France, the USA,
Botswana, and Hungary.
This secondary school with about 750 students and 70 teachers is excited to
be taking part in the ARISS program.
The project team consists of members of different age levels motivated by
their interests in outer space,
technology, space travel, journalism, and many other talents which are
contributing to making this project a
reality.
Participants will ask as many of the following questions as time allows:
1. Wie ver?ndert sich der menschliche K?rper im Weltall?
2. Ver?ndert sich auch Ihr Biorhythmus im All und k?nnen Sie gut schlafen?
3. Stimmt es, dass man im Weltraum nicht r?lpsen kann?
4. Welche allt?glichen Dinge und Gewohnheiten vermissen Sie am meisten?
5. Kann man eine Kerze in der Raumstation anz?nden, wenn ja wie sieht sie

About ARISS:
Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) is a cooperative
venture of international amateur radio societies and the space agencies that
support the International Space Station (ISS). In the United States,
sponsors are the Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation (AMSAT), the American
Radio Relay League (ARRL), the Center for the Advancement of Science in
Space (CASIS) and National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).
The primary goal of ARISS is to promote exploration of science, technology,
engineering, and mathematics (STEM) topics by organizing scheduled contacts
via amateur radio between crew members aboard the ISS and students in
classrooms or informal education venues. With the help of experienced
amateur radio volunteers, ISS crews speak directly with large audiences in a
variety of public forums. Before and during these radio contacts, students,
teachers, parents, and communities learn about space, space technologies,
and amateur radio. For more informa
tion, see www.ariss.org, www.amsat.org, and www.arrl.org.
Thank you & 73,
