Hi!
Thanks to all who have posted in public forums and sent
me private e-mails about the upcoming W7O operation. I
am now ready to take sign-ups for those who would like
to operate as W7O during the 15-24 November (UTC time)
period.
An important point regarding who can operate as W7O...
W7O can only be operated from US territory, where amateur
radio is regulated by the FCC. It cannot be used from
outside US territory, as these 1x1 special calls - just
like US club calls - are not covered by any of the
arrangements like CEPT, IARP, or other agreements between
the USA and other countries. I have been asked by some
non-USA hams who were interested in operating as xxx/W7O
or W7O/xxx in their countries. I'm sorry - this is not
possible.
For the HF/6m operating, I will take signups for one-
hour increments on the HF bands (excluding 60m) plus
6m, for CW, phone, and digital modes. For the 30m
band, only CW and digital modes. I am wanting to
avoid two stations operating on the same band/mode
combination as W7O at the same time. If you are
willing to operate for 2, 4 or more hours at one
time - please feel free to sign up for more
consecutive slots. Also, please let me know about
your HF station - rig(s), antenna(s), etc. If you
do sign up, please follow through with being on the
air at the specified times. Stations will be looking
for W7O on the different bands.
For the satellites, I am looking for operators in
different parts of the USA. In particular, operators
in the eastern USA capable of working Europe, north
Africa, and South America along with North America
will be welcomed. Other operators who are not able
to work other continents are also welcome, but there
has been interest from hams outside of North America
to work W7O on the satellites - especially AO-7. I
plan on working W7O on the satellites during weeknights
and as much as possible on the two weekends during this
10-day period, but would be happy to share the work
with others who may want to work as W7O during those
times.
Operators would need to operate within the limits of
their amateur licenses. The W7O call does not grant
additional privileges to the operator. Operators are
required to give their personal call signs once per hour
when operating under a 1x1 special call. For example,
saying "W7O, operated by (operator's call)" would satisfy
this requirement. On the satellites with passes that
are typically 10 to 20 minutes in length, giving the
"W7O, operated by (operator's call)" announcement around
the midpoint of each pass worked would be a good thing.
Once I get some operating commitments from operators, I
will publish the schedule through a link on my WD9EWK
QRZ.com entry and my web page. This way, others will
know where and when to look for W7O during this 10-day
period.
After the 24th, W7O operators would need to send me a
log of stations worked, with the usual bits of data -
date/UTC time, call, band (or bands, for satellite QSOs),
mode, and (for satellites) satellite name. I can handle
ADIF log files, Excel spreadsheets, text files, and logs
pasted into the body of e-mails. If you are not able to
send me a file in any of these formats, please let me
know, so we can work out a way to get the logs. Logs
will be uploaded to Logbook of the World, and I (WD9EWK)
will handle the QSL cards for W7O.
Please e-mail me directly if you're interested in operating
as W7O, or if you have any other questions about this
operation.
73!

Hi!
I will have an AMSAT booth at the Tucson Hamfest in
southern Arizona this Saturday, 8 November 2014.
The hamfest will be at a school in the city of Marana,
about 20 miles/32km northwest of downtown Tucson
along the I-10 freeway. More information about the
hamfest is available at:
http://www.tucsonhamradio.com/tucson-hamfest
During the hamfest, on-air demonstrations of satellite
operating will be done. Either WD9EWK or K8YSE/7 will
be on the air from the hamfest site, in grid DM42jk,
throughout the morning. If you hear either of these
calls on the air Saturday morning, please call and be
a part of the demonstrations. I'll take care of QSLing
any QSOs with WD9EWK, and John will do the same for any
QSOs with K8YSE/7 at the hamfest. WD9EWK QSOs will be
uploaded to Logbook of the World.
Don't forget that the AMSAT web site has an updated
listing of events with an AMSAT presence. That listing
can be seen at:

73!

Hi Folks,
There is a planned ARISS school contact tomorrow with a school in Germany
at 0955 UTC onwards. Tomorrow I am supporting our local ARS public open day,
and will try rxing the downlink (in German).
Does anyone know if I can rx the uplink somehow, eg via ECHO link??
Grateful for any advice

Described at the moment at http://www.ariss.org/upcoming-contacts.html
It's not a telebridge contact so it can be received in Northern Europe.
The page above lists a ustream URL to follow things live, that will
probably have the uplink audio as well and live video of the side of the
school.
Whoever maintains that page at ariss cut and pasted the link to ustream
from the arrl outlook web access so it asks me to login there.
Correct URL:
http://www.ustream.tv/channel/woehlerschule-iss
More on the website of the school at http://www.woehlerschule.de/ which
suggests the language will be English. The ariss page expects German.
I hope someone records this. I have family plans so I can't put the whole
setup outside to record it.
