I will be travelling to Newfoundland, Labrador, and Nova Scotia. Anyone in
those areas please contact me, I would love to meet up. All else, I will be
traveling from 9/16 to 10/16. Keep your ears on.

> NIST station WWV and sister stations are among the oldest radio stations
in the United States, having been in continuous operation since May 1920.
The station has transmitted the official US Time for nearly 100 years, and
is an instrumental part in the telecommunications field, ranging from
broadcasting to scientific research and education. Additionally, these
stations transmit marine storm warnings from the National Weather Service,
GPS satellite health reports, and specific information concerning current

Keep in mind that Congress has rejected the President's budget and in
most cases has set funding levels far higher than requested,
especially for agencies involved in science and research, like NIST.
In this case, the House and Senate appropriations bills have funding
levels for this account that are nearly $150 million higher than NIST
requested. That makes a shutdown of WWV services unlike in FY 2019 as
they won't need to make cuts to deal with a reduced budget.
Specifically, while NIST requested $573,429,000 for Scientific and
Technical Research and Services in FY 2019, the House Commerce,
Justice, and Science appropriations bill gives them $720,000,000
(https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/house-bill/5952/text).
The Senate version of the legislation gives them $724,500,000
(https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-congress/senate-bill/3072/text).
It's worth it to make our voices heard that we want these services to
continue, but there is little actual danger of them being shut down
over the next year.

Paul, N8HM

Hi all,
Here?s a small video of a mobile to mobile (car to car) QSO on AO-91 of
myself and Jerome (F4DXV).
It shows that the FOX-1 series are very easy to work, even with a whip and
without having to wave it around to find the correct polarization.

Message-ID: <4EBD523FF9884EEF9A4EFA276AF75172@???>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"
An International Space Station school contact has been planned with
participants at Glenden State School, Glenden, Queensland, Australia
on 23 Aug. The event is scheduled to begin at approximately 09:45 UTC. It is
recommended that you start listening approximately 10 minutes before this
time.The duration of the contact is approximately 9 minutes and 30 seconds.
The contact will be a telebridge between NA1SS and VK5ZAI. The contact
should be audible over Australia 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.
Glenden State School is an Education Queensland School that caters for
approximately 100 students in primary and secondary education from Prep to
Year 12. The school is two hours west of Mackay and is situated in a mining
town. Everyone who lives in the town either works for Glencore Newlands
coal mine or in essential services. The town was constructed and is owned
by the mine. The school has a positive partnership with the mine, and many
of our secondary students participate in traineeships in a range of areas
across the mine, while all year 10 students complete a Resources and
Infrastructure certificate through the mine. We are somewhat isolated and
so the community works together to create opportunities in sports and
recreation.
Our core values are that we aim for safety, respect and success, our logo
being a rising eagle. Our mission is to encourage quality educational
experiences, embracing an inclusive environment that values diversity and
the needs of all learners. In partnership with parents and the community we
aim to foster responsibility, pride and respect for self and others while
finding worth within learning, so all may achieve goals that will celebrate
personal success and make a positive contribution to society. Our purpose
is to have every child achieving, every day.
While we focus on improvement across literacy and numeracy across Prep - 12,
we foster positive behaviour through proactive Positive Behaviour Learning.
Our uniqueness lies in our ability to know and see every student as an
individual and nurture them in their gifts and talents and towards
continuous improvement. We have established an innovated STEM program and a
Maker Space where students engage in robotics and engineering activities.
Participants will ask as many of the following questions as time allows:
1. What does the moon look like from the ISS?
2. What's your space suit made out of?
3. Have you seen any UFOs from the ISS?
4. Do you freeze up there without your space suit on?
5. How long does it take to get to the moon?
6. What you do on the space station?
7. Do you get to go outside and if so what preparation is required?
8. Does a magnetic compass behave differently in space?
9. How do you become an astronaut and what advice would you give us?
10. How long are you up there for and what do you miss the most?
11. What food do you eat and how do you eat it without gravity in space?
12. How do you take care of yourself and your body in space?
13. What do you do if you get sick?
14. Why did you want to be an astronaut?
15. How long does it take to get used to zero gravity?
16. What is the most amazing sight you have seen when you looked through your
window?
17. Why don't you run out of oxygen on the International Space Station?
18. What plans are there for the future expansion of the International Space
Station?
19. Have any of the past scientific experiments on the Space Station had a
real world impact on Earth?
20. How do you communicate with your family?

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,

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,
David - AA4KN
