Someone does not understand that distance makes a huge difference in
received signal strength. It would take very little transmit power on board
the aircraft to interfere with an ILS. Even as an aircraft is about to
land, the legitimate ILS transmit antennas are a couple miles away (they are
normally just off the departure end of the runway, so for a 10,000 to 12,000
foot runway (common for major airline terminals), they are over two miles
away).

Here's the interesting part:
"They write that the attack could also be carried out from within the
aircraft, but the requirements for a strong signal and thus large power
amplifier and directional antenna would still be required, making the
operation too suspicious to carry out onboard."

Once again, we have stocked the store with some neat stuff.
AMSAT Golf fundraising is underway more than ever before.
You can order from the AMSAT online store a set of 3 golf balls.
One has the Golf Tee logo, one has the Golf-1 logo and one has the AMSAT
50th Anniversary logo for only $50
If you really want something special, you can get the same three Golf
Balls signed by three AMSAT Presidents, Keith Baker, KB1SF; Barry
Baines, WD4ASW; and Joe Spier, K6WAO, for only $100.
Available at the AMSAT online store under the Trinkets tab and only
while supplies last. If we run out of the signed golf balls, we will
have more signed.
Coming soon - 2019 AMSAT Tee Shirts, Golf Shirts, Hats, decals and pins.

While trying to work CAS4A the FM stations in Mexico completely took over
the satellite throughout the whole pass. I could hardly hear WA6RLR although
he had a 5x7 signal. The FM stations were throughout the complete passband
during the pass. Looks like this satellite will not be workable if this
keeps up. JACK KC7MG DM42

I recently purchased a Alinco DJ-G7 handheld for 2 reasons.? 1) It is a full
duplex handheld. 2) it has the 1.2 GHz (23cm) band. I am somewhat
disappointed in the full duplex mode. When you transmit in full duplex mode
you can hear the CTCSS tone loudly, and it makes it hard to hear your return
signal. Why is that I wonder?? For L/V mode on Sundays with AO-92 It works
great with only 1 watt output and my home brew 12 element yagi that I
attached to the boom of my 2 meter/70cm tripod mounted antenna. I had 5
contacts today on the AO-92 passes. The real challenge is the manual doppler
shift correction!

I'm not sure how long it's been, but I figured I'd give an update on my
FoxTelem 1.07y experience.
I upgraded to 1.07y a few days after it was released, and was previously
running 1.06r.? My station is pretty simple, just a 3/4 wave vertical in
my attic (with 4 radials), running to a FCDP+ plugged into a RasPi 3B.
My decode rate has gone up by about 25 to 50 percent (was averaging about
50 to 75 frames a day, now getting about 70 to 100 per day).
But more impressive (to me) is that it seems much more stable.? It used to
crash about once a month, and since updating to 1.07y I cannot recall a
single crash occurrence (although I have had to stop/start it a couple of
times for unrelated reasons).
2 thumbs up to the FoxTelem Team!

Imagine this tilt-over-tower for your AMSAT antennas!

On leaving the annual Dayton Hamvention yesterday, I noticed this huge DIY
80' tilt-over Wind tower and the house below it built around the massive
structure.

An impressive structure, no doubt. But I wonder what level of
vibration/noise would propagate down the tower into the building when
that beast is hoisted into the air.

Hello All,
This Friday and Saturday I will be heading to Mildura in the north west
of VK3.? I will be operating from Wyperfeld, Murray-Sunset and
Hattah-Kulkyne
National parks.
For those collecting grids I will be in QF04, QF05 and QF15 (and maybe
QF14).
QF04 may be rare as I have not had a QSO to or from that one.
Hope to catch you on the birds.

Subject: [amsat-bb] Using PSTRotator Tracking S/W with iCOM IC-910H
Message-ID: <ECC7F1E1B05048A18401D62701CCFCB6@??????>
Content-Type: text/plain;??? charset="us-ascii"
All-
I've been working to get my radio working correctly with the PSTRotator
AZ/EL control software.? The software tracks the satellites beautifully, but
the Doppler tracking seems messed up (which is likely an operator problem on
my part), so I need some help if anyone else is using this combination.
Here's my problem: When I follow the instructions given in the manual, I can
get the software to track the Doppler, but the tracking can't seem to be
tweaked to get the downlink in exactly the right place- it's always about a
kHz or so high.? Of course, if the station I'm working is on my downlink
frequency, I have to adjust my RX to get the proper audio frequency.? Then
the tracking takes over and my TX frequency jumps to again offset the
downlink (it's tweaking the uplink, because the station I'm trying to work
is still in the right place).? What am I doing wrong?
Has anyone here ever seen this issue and gotten this to work properly?
Thanks in advance for any help- I really want this working before Field Day!

Hi!
On my way to southern California for the Memorial Day weekend
on Friday (24 May), I will make a detour to work some
passes from the DM23vx/DM24va grid boundary, north of
the AZ-72/AZ-95 junction near Quartzsite in Arizona's
La Paz County. I am planning to work the AO-91 and AO-92
passes between 1600 and 1830 UTC, and will try the
CAS-4A and CAS-4B passes between 1700 and 1800
UTC.
Updates on Friday morning will be posted on my @??????
Twitter feed, which can be seen in a web browser at
http://twitter.com/WD9EWK without a Twitter account.
All QSOs will be uploaded to Logbook of the World, and
please e-mail me directly if you work me and want a QSL
card to confirm QSOs.
73!

Hi All,
I suspect a large amount of you are aware but as passes have been
quiet, I thought I'd mention it on the newsgroup.
At the moment it's possible to comfortably work North America on
afternoon FO-29 and AO-91 passes. If you haven't worked Europe on
satellites nows a good time to try :)
A rough idea of what I have been working
AO-91 - VY2HF, VE9CB, KB2YSI, VE9BEL, VE1EM, VO1YR, CJ7EWK/3
FO-29 - W3ZM/8, K4KDR, N6RFM, WB8RJY, VA3NNA, NS3L
If you'd like to try a sked then let me know!
73,
Peter, 2M0SQL (IO87ip)

Here's the interesting part:
"They write that the attack could also be carried out from within the
aircraft, but the requirements for a strong signal and thus large power
amplifier and directional antenna would still be required, making the
operation too suspicious to carry out onboard."
