An International Space Station school contact has been planned with
participants at Obie Elementary School, Kurashiki, Japan on 26 Sept. The
event is scheduled to begin at approximately 08:47 UTC. The duration of the
contact is approximately 9 minutes and 30 seconds. The contact will be
direct between NA1SS and 8N4KLO. The contact should be audible over Japan
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.
More than 50 years have passed since the establishment of the Kurashiki
Municipal Government was formed. The city now boasts over 65 primary
schools. Obie primary school has a certain history and tradition that has
formed over the last 144 years since its establishment.
The school area and surrounding community was founded during the Edo period
when much of the land in the area around Kurashiki was being reclaimed.
During this time, the Obie community was a village of small urban farms with
many reticulated canals for rice paddy irrigation. Recently, the area has
transformed into an urban residential area.
Obie is close to the city centre, about 4.5km from Kurashiki station, and
about 3km from the local city hall. Infrastructure around the area is well
designed. The Route 2 highway going east-west is just 150m north of the
school, making the area accessible. Furthermore, connecting to the Seto-Chuo
highway that runs from the main island of Honshu to the island of Shikoku is
also possible.
The school has recognized a certain expectation from local residents
regarding the school's education and has a very positive relationship with
the community through activities such as the school PTA gatherings and
various local kids clubs.
Obie primary students are considerate, well mannered, and kind hearted.
Participants will ask as many of the following questions as time allows:
1. Japan has been affected by heavy rain and earthquakes this summer. Could
you give us some advice about how to overcome problems?
2. How do you decide when it is day or night?
3. Why did you want to be an astronaut?
4. In 50 years from now, will we be able to live in space?
5. What makes you happy in your mission?
6. What makes you scared in space?
7. What language do you speak on the international space station?
8. How do you see a shooting star in space?
9. What's the best thing about the earth when you see it from space?
10. What kind of exams and tests did you take to become an astronaut?
11. What do you want to eat when you come back?
12. How do you spend your free time?
13. What is your favorite space food?
14. Is your spacesuit hot?
15. What kind of training did you do?
16. What's inconvenient in space?
17. What experiments do you do in space?
18. When do you want to go back to Earth?
19. How do you use the toilet?

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.

Doppler measurements show that CP-7 DAVE is object 43615,
that ELFIN-B is object 43616 and that ELFIN-A is object 43617.
Therefore SurfSat is object 43614.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII
while using the FT726R with the satellite board, a couple of questions
have come to mind. First, I think that this is a fault, I cannot transmit
CW unless both the receiver and transmitter are set to CW. It does not
transmit CW if the receiver is in another mode. And second, I'm messing up
on the FM satellites sometimes because I'm forgetting to turn the PL tone
on. Can I leave it switched on when using another mode like SSB. Will it
only be present if FM is selected or will it appear in the audio when
transmitting on SSB?
Thanks,

Thanks for the direct replies! Got the answers, other than the CW
transmitter behaviour.
I have another question regarding GPredict. Maybe mine is out of date,
there are things that complicate things for operating without CAT
control.
First, in the radio interface window, activating track and then hunting
down a station on the receiver, if I change the downlink frequency the
uplink frequency doesn't follow it. Its up to me to figure out what
the uplink frequency with Doppler correction should be.
The second item relates to the radio interface too, if I click outside
of that window it disappears. Thats OK with CAT control, but as I
manually do the Doppler correction it would be better if there was an
option to keep that window open.
I've been a Linux operator for a while.
