I saw you on my radio. If there was nearby igate, it may have heard you
direct and that would make you not appear on ARISS.net. I tried to send you
a message but wasn?t able to get back into the digipeater due to trees but
you were heard here in Alabama.

Hey Steve!
The sites like FINDU and APRS.fi scan the APRS internet stream for
digipeated packets and scan for certain things.
In the case of ISS digipeats, a site would be looking for packets with
"RS0ISS*" in the digipeat path.
However, the APRS-IS system as a whole rejects "duplicate" packets. It's
first-come, first-serve if more than one i-Gate hears your packet.
Normally that's not an issue but unfortunately it's possible to have
packets heard directly on the ground "win" the race and report what they
hear on up into the APRS-IS system. Packets gated directly onto the
internet won't include the "RS0ISS*" marker that those websites are looking
for, but rather will be marked "TCPIP".
So, here's your packet from tonight's pass on the system (as seen at
https://aprs.fi/?c=raw&call=AI9IN), but as you can see there's no mention
of the ISS:
---------------------------

---------------------------
... and there are many other examples that affect others, too:

----------------------------
... so, it's just an issue of which iGate is able to get your digipeated
(or heard directly on the ground) packet into the system first. If an
iGate is hearing you directly because they live down the street, then the
hope would be that the operator there would help out by filtering out your
traffic & giving your digipeated packets a chance to make it onto the
system (instead of the locally heard packet).
In the case of packets that ARE digipeated by the ISS, but still win the
race onto the network and are mis-tagged as "TCPIP*", I can only imagine
that that's a configuration issue. The majority of iGates, upon hearing a
digipeat from the ISS, forward it onto the APRS network in a way that you'd
find it on those websites. I can't say that I know exactly how packets
heard from space could get re-tagged as instead digipeated via "TCPIP".
-Scott, K4KDR

I plan to operate from grid FN64, Washington County, Maine, this Friday and
Saturday, December 6&7. I hope to be on between 1600 and 2000z, 0000 and
0300z, and 1400 and 1600z. While most passes during these windows are FM, I
am prepared for linear satellites. I will operate QRP, as always, with my
Arrow. This is not exclusively a radio jaunt, so I may not be on every
available pass. No blind calls, please.
I may have the chance to activate FN54 for one pass around 1630z on Saturday.
Updates will be via Twitter @?????????? when service is available. Upload to
LoTW will probably be December 8.

It looks like all of their operational windows will have NO PASSES visible
in the USA (or at least not in central USA).
Did I miss something, or is it just bad luck?
In any case, have fun, 73

MAI-75 is part of an experiment conducted by the Moscow Aviation Institute
(MAI). As such, it concentrates on Russian passes and is seldom available
over North America. Fortunately, this leaves open time for ARISS activity.
For this session, the 17:15 UTC cutoff on Dec. 5 is critical because Council
Rock HS South in Holland PA has an ARISS contact 40 minutes later. This
should be audible over much of the eastern US. The school plans to stream
the contact at

Amateur Radio on the International Space Station?
?
Contact Opportunity?
?
Call for Proposals?
?
Upcoming Proposal Window is February 1, 2020 to March 31, 2020?
?
The Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) Program is
seeking formal and informal education institutions and organizations,
individually or working together, to host an Amateur Radio contact with a
crew member on board the ISS. ARISS anticipates that the contact for
proposals submitted in the proposal window now open would be held between
July 1, 2020 and December 31, 2020.? ARISS is happy to announce a second
proposal window will open February 1, 2020 for contacts that would be held
between January 1, 2021 and June 30, 2021. Crew scheduling and ISS orbits
will determine the exact contact dates. To maximize these radio contact
opportunities, ARISS is looking for organizations that will draw large
numbers of participants and integrate the contact into a well-developed
education plan.?
?
The deadline to submit proposals for contacts between July 1, 2020 and
December 31, 2020 is November 30, 2019.? The proposal window for contacts
between January 1, 2021 and June 30, 2021 will open on February 1, 2020 and
close on March 31, 2020.? Proposal information and documents can be found at
www.ariss.org. Two ARISS Introductory Webinar sessions will be held on
November 7, 2019. The first is at 6:00 PM ET and the second is at 9:00 PM
ET. The same material will be covered during both sessions, so choose the
session that best fits your schedule. The Eventbrite link to sign up
is?https://ariss-introductory-webinar-fall-2019.eventbrite.com?.
?
The Opportunity?
?
Crew members aboard the International Space Station will participate in
scheduled Amateur Radio contacts. These radio contacts are approximately 10
minutes in length and allow students to interact with the astronauts through
a question-and-answer session.?
?
An ARISS contact is a voice-only communication opportunity via Amateur Radio
between astronauts and cosmonauts aboard the space station and classrooms
and communities. ARISS contacts afford education audiences the opportunity
to learn firsthand from astronauts what it is like to live and work in space
and to learn about space research conducted on the ISS. Students also will
have an opportunity to learn about satellite communication, wireless
technology, and radio science. Because of the nature of human spaceflight
and the complexity of scheduling activities aboard the ISS, organizations
must demonstrate flexibility to accommodate changes in dates and times of
the radio contact.?
?
Amateur Radio organizations around the world with the support of NASA and
space agencies in Russia, Canada, Japan and Europe present educational
organizations with this opportunity. The ham radio organizations' volunteer
efforts provide the equipment and operational support to enable
communication between crew on the ISS and students around the world using
Amateur Radio.??

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 ISS National Lab and National Aeronautics and
Space Administration (NASA). The primary goal of ARISS is to promote
exploration of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEAM)
topics by organizing scheduled contacts via amateur radio between crew
members aboard the ISS and students in classrooms or public forms. Before
and during these radio contacts, students, educators, parents, and
communities learn about space, space technologies, and amateur radio. For
more information, see www.ariss.org.
