I have one that works best with VHF (although it is supposed to do UHF) in
S. NH. But someone has to request recording the pass. Anyone who joins
SatNogs can do it.

Hi Nitin,
I'm slowly setting up for satellite APRS as I believe it may be the
best option for very short emcomm messages to/from our isolated
northern communities (HF has been useless at the bottom of the solar
cycle). Another APRS satellite is great news. Thanks!

Andrew Knafel, KN8FEL saw my videos and through our correspondence I
helped him learn how to operate satellites.
He and his family live in Ohio but regularly vacation at Myrtle Beach,
South Carolina. He has a long time friend who lives near Raleigh,
which is on the way to Myrtle Beach, who he usually stops to see.
Since he was in town we met up for an evening to play radio. We worked
four passes on four different satellites.
The highlight was making contact through a satellite while standing
mere feet away from each other. We actually did this twice on two
different satellites. :-)
Follow Andrew's sat activities on Twitter:
https://twitter.com/kn8fel
Andrew's equipment:
Arrow II antenna
Yaesu FT-818 for transmit on linear/SSB sats
Wouxon HT for transmit on FM repeater sats
Kenwood TH-D74 for receive
My equipment:
Alaskan Arrow with only one of three sections, except SO-50 pass where
I used two of three sections.
Icom IC-910H for linear sat passes
Kenwood TM-V71 for SO-50.
We worked these four passes:
2019-03-30 - 22:51 UTC - XW-2D
2019-03-30 - 23:10 UTC - XW-2C
2019-03-30 - 23:24 UTC - CAS-4A
2019-03-31 - 00:02 UTC - SO-50

Time for a spring time fly fishing / satellite roving trip in eastern
Wyoming. April 3rd I will be traveling through DN73 and DN83 and I will
try to work:
AO-92 18:27 utc
SO-50 18:55 utc
AO-91 19:31 utc
SO-50 20:37 utc
Some will be just DN73, some DN73/83 based on travel times.
I will be camping in Beulah, WY in DN74 which is very close to DN84. Plan
to work both vacation style, with DN84 mostly mid-day Thursday and Friday.
Mostly FM birds, and I hope to practice my SSB a bit while in camp.
Return passes through DN73 are unscheduled right now. I will try to post
here and on Twitter before leaving. Very limited internet access during
this trip.
Hope to get some of you some new grids from DN land.

International Space Station Astronauts are Calling CQ Students
ARISS-US program?s education proposal window is open April 1 - May 15, 2019
?
March 24, 2019:? The Amateur Radio on the International Space Station
(ARISS) program is seeking proposals beginning April 1, 2019, from US
schools, museums, science centers and community youth organizations (working
individually or together) to host radio contacts with an orbiting crew
member aboard the International Space Station (ISS) between January 1, 2020
and June 30, 2020.
?
Each year, ARISS provides tens of thousands of students with learning
opportunities about space technologies, communications, and much more
through the exploration of Amateur Radio and space. The ARISS program
connects students to astronauts on the ISS through a partnership between
NASA, the Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation, the American Radio Relay
League, other Amateur Radio global organizations and the worldwide space
agencies. The program?s goal is to inspire students to pursue interests and
careers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) and in
Amateur Radio.
?
Educators report regularly that student participation in the ARISS program
stimulates interest in STEM subjects and STEM careers. One educator wrote,
?Many of the middle school students who took part in and attended the ARISS
contact have selected science courses in high school as a result of that
contact.?? Educators are setting up ham radio clubs in schools and learning
centers because of students? interest.
?
ARISS is looking for organizations that will draw large numbers of
participants and integrate the contact into a well-developed, exciting
education plan. Students can learn about satellite communications, wireless
technology, science research conducted on the ISS, radio science, and other
STEM subjects. Students learn to use Amateur Radio to talk directly to an
astronaut and ask their STEM-related questions. ARISS will help educational
organizations locate Amateur Radio groups who can assist with equipment for
a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for students.
?
The proposal window opens April 1, 2019 and the proposal deadline is May 15,
2019. For proposal guidelines and forms and more details, go to:
http://ariss-proposal-webinar-spring-2019.eventbrite.com
Proposal webinars for guidance and getting questions answered will be
offered April 11, 2019 at 7 pm Eastern Time and April 16, 2019 at 9 pm
Eastern Time. Advance registration is necessary. To sign up, go to
