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 is happy to announce a 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 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.??

I will be going up to Tularosa NM in grid DM63 on Friday for a few hours. I
plan on working AO-92 at 1745 UTC, AO-91 at 1926 UTC, SO-50 at 1931 UTC and
PO-101 at 1954 UTC. I may not get to the SO-50 pass if the AO-91 pass gets
busy since These two passes overlap.

Dear Amsat Members,
On 4th Dec 2019 I successfully gave Live Amateur Radio Satellite (AO91)
Demo amongst 50 final year B.Sc (Physics) Students.
A special Hands on workshop of Applied Physics was organised by School of
Science RK University Rajkot India from 2nd to 6th Dec 2019.
Myself Rajesh Vagadia VU2EXP (Regional Coordinator, AMSAT-INDIA) was
invited to conduct presentation on Amateur Radio & it's Application along
with Live Satellite Demo.
I carried out detailed presentation on ham radio topics ranging from CW to
Satellites! Many doubts & queries were resolved. Also displayed Radio
stuff, antenna, accessories, CubeSat model, SDR Dongle, Keyer & Paddle, QSL
Cards, ARISS Awards etc. for better understanding for students.
AMSAT functioning & it's motto was explained in detailed. Few amateur
satellites were bring into notice made/supported by various AMSAT
organisations.
'ARISS student outreach program' highlights were also given & played
original audio conversation happened between 13 year Student (Sakshi
Vagadia) and female Astronaut Sunita William aboard ISS, particular ARISS
event was carried out on 14th Nov 2012 at Science City Ahmedabad Gujarat by
we few hams. Below is the link to enjoy conversation:

Students surprised to see scientific capabilities of ham radio reaches upto
ISS Astronauts & even further to moon with EME experiments!
For our final Live Satellite Demo (AO91) we all incl. group of students &
faculties assembled to terrace. It was good pass with 44? max elevation.
AOS was at 1247 (IST) & LOS at 1259 (IST)
I made students familiar with important Satellite terms such as AOS, TCA,
LOS, Uplink Freq, Downlink Freq, Doppler shift, Tracking with apps etc. I
used IOio dual band antenna with two separate HTs. Necessary frequency & tx
ctcss tone was set & tested before pass. For Tx Speaker Mic was used for
convenience, and for Rx small PA was connected to HT so whole group can
listen to our possible two way QSO. I was prepared aiming IOio antenna at
180? (South), on AOS time at 1247 (IST) I gave few Sat calls... De VU2EXP
on AO91 Satellite... repeat... soon heard a station replying
me!!! Cheers!!! It was VU3PENfrom Hyderabad (MK97em) 955 Kms from us.
Students can't stop their excitement and started cheering up!!!
Thereafter we were able to contact with VU3BXS (MM80pd) 1083 Kms,
A65BP from UAE (LL75qj) 1602 Kms, VU2DGR (MJ89gg) 1576 Kms. Very near to
LOS we heard R9LR but couldn't exchange report.
Students as well as faculties were very excited to learn on ham radio &
just thrilled to witness this live SatDemo.
I thanks to all hams for their valuable support for my demo.
Also thanks to Prof. Harshal Desai, Dr. Savan Katba, Dr. Ashish Tanna & RK
University to give me wonderful platform to conduct this Ham Session.

Hi guys and gals,
I will be doing another radio merit badge class this coming
Saturday,December 7th, for a bunch of scouts at Camp Wisdom in Dallas Texas.
Thanks to Jim Wilson K5ND who is the trustee for the scouts club call,
K2BSA, we will be putting the/ /5 call on for the AO-91 pass starting at my
1810 UTC. Please look for that call and give our Scouts a shout back as they
shout our call back to you. Will also be on the air with that call between
1900 and 2100 on HF, probably 20 m and probably just under 14.290.
I would really love it if someone could email me or text me a recording from
your end of that pass. I like to show the scouts what they sounded like on
the other end of the link.
Although satellites are not a normal part of the radio merit badge, I always
try to throw a contact and some satellite education in to help with the
point that amateur radio is really a cool hobby with some fun challenges and
some good learning to be had.
Please look for us on the air and especially that Satellite pass. I would
really appreciate it.
