It is now the second day of the ITU Symposium and Workshop on small
satellite regulation and communication systems (Prague, Czech
Republic, 2-4 March 2015).

The symposium is streamed live at:

http://media.fel.cvut.cz/stream/itu.asx

Apparently this will only work with Windows Media Player.
Todays lectures just started with SSTL.

There is a presentation at ~17:50 local time:

"Es?hail-2 Satellite AMSAT Payload"

The presentation schedule may be found here:

http://www.itu.int/en/ITU-R/space/workshops/2015-prague-small-sat/Documents/IT
U-Symposium-PRAGUE-A4.pdf

This presentation covers also frequencies, polarisation data and
block diagrams of the implementation.

Maybe food for thought stateside, how something similar could be
negotiated with the NA space industry ? With some clever planning,
maybe even some continent hopping could be implemented ;-)

"Maybe food for thought stateside, how something similar could be

I believe there was an offer some years back from Intelsat to fly an
amateur payload on one of their geostationary satellites, but the
ongoing costs were too high for AMSAT-NA to finance.

Unfortunately, no public corporation in the United States is going to
donate extremely valuable surplus space and power on a geostationary
satellite to the amateur radio community. In a country like Qatar,
things like this may be done as a way of promoting national prestige,
but to do something similar here, we'll have to figure out how to pay
the bills.

Hi All,

As the weather hopefully turns warmer and better here in Chesapeake, VA
K4AMG Memorial Amateur Radio Club is trying to plan out 3 GOTA events on the
Birds.

Home School Kids - KM4IBV and KM4IBW  (any time)
Great Bridge HS - W4GBH  (1330 - 1530 UTC week days)
Chesapeake Center for Science and Technology - W4FOS (1730 - 2030 UTC)

I can not predict days becuase of school specail test schedules.  We need at
least 12 degrees elevations to assure AOS.

I need to project orbits of:
ISS
FO29
AO73
SO50

from mid March - early June.

A portion of one the days may be used at the Dayton Youth Forum by KM4IBV
age 10 and KM4IBW age 12 (both Generals)

If you want to show up in person and help that would be great.  Let me know!

Can some one help us with these advance preditions.

Thank you and God Bless.

Glen,

Thanks for your feedback.

So far, the change I implemented seems to be working ... note that your
"From" address has been "munged" such that it no longer claims to be sent
from a Yahoo! server, when it in fact comes from amsat.org - the AMSAT
server checked to see if yahoo.com had a restrictive DMARC policy, saw
that it did, so replaced your address with the list address.   Other mail
servers around the internet don't see a DMARC policy violation, and list
mail is delivered.

Spam folders, on the other hand, are a separate problem.  ISP's have a
different methods of sorting spam from ham.  Yahoo! has some tips for its
users at:

https://help.yahoo.com/kb/mail/SLN4910.html

Other ISP's have their own procedures.

Not to say that we aren't always looking and trying.  Suggestions are
always welcome!
The AMSAT-NA leadership and some members and former directors/officers
spend a lot of time trying to find ways for us to get to orbit be it
Tony petitioning NASA to allow non-profits to participate in CSLI/ELaNa,
Drew coming up with the Spaceflight launch opportunity, myself
discussing disposal orbits with the launch folks at the Fox-1 MRR.  And
I know there are more that are going on but usually nothing is said to
the team unless someone gets a nibble, and then not to the public until
we have something on the hook because nobody likes vaporware.
So like much of our engineering stuff, silence does not imply that
nothing is happening.

for the past almost week, i have received no emails from amsat that were
put in my spam folder by yahoo. the day before joe announced the
software upgrade, i did receive an email from the amsat listserver that
due to the volume of email bounces, my account had been disabled. i
clicked to re-enable it. i was so used to looking in my spam folder for
the (amsat-bb) that i was surprised to not see any there. i am as
pleased as others are. thanks joe and the web team.

I subscribe to about 100 Yahoo groups, and most of the emails from this

it into the folder where they belong, as this one did. Weird.

I am presently working on rebuilding my G-5400 rotator. I have the
elevation unit done and seems to work fine. However, I have finally
started working on the azimuth unit and find that one of the two mast
clamps has a crack at the top. I was wondering if anyone has a spare(s)
or a unit not working that you can part out. The rotator itself works
but needs some TLC with bearings, greasing etc.

The mast mounting clamp halves have the part number:  7501-075.

I only need one since they are the same, but two would be fine but not
necessary. You can contact me off the list.

A buddy of mine has given me a Cushcraft A270-10S dual-band antenna. I was
going to try to use it start my satellite antenna farm and was thinking of
mounting it on a rotator, angled at 45 degrees up from the horizon and
angled at 45 degrees polarization.

The main reason for the high up angle is that I live in a bit of a valley
or as I call it a hole. North and South aren't to bad as I have heard
passes at about 20 degrees, to the east my horizon is about 25 to30
degrees. To the west though I have a horizon of 40 degrees.

So I was thinking wit the antenna pointed at 45 degrees above the horizon
would give me the best chance all around.

Am I on the right track or lost in the snow?

Or would I be better to just mount the antenna horizontal aimed at the
horizon and take what I can get?

Hi Jacob,

I have had a few of those antennas before. Are you only going to use it on
the satellites, or are you thinking of using it for terresterial use as
well?  As you look at the antennas, one set of elements is on the top of
the boom and the other set of elements are on the bottom of the boom.  When
it is mounted for horizontal polarization, the band that is on the top has
a rather high angle of elevation. I always mounted it with the UHF elements
on top, so the satellites would have to get up a bit in elevation before I
could really pick them up well on Mode J. When VO52 was on, being Mode B, I
would work it from horizon to horizon. The band on the bottom side of the
boom seemed to function as one would expect a yagi to.

If you were only going to use it for the satellites, mounting it for
vertical polarization might eliminate this problem and give similar
performance on both bands.  I have never tried that, but someone who has
might answer that question for you (and for me if I ever get another one).
I am now using separate antennas for 2m and 70cm and the Diamond 15 element
yagi I have for UHF hears SO50 better than the A270-10S usually did.

73 John AF5CC

P.S. congrats on the 2 x 1 callsign as well!
