Mike use USB, I just captured the signal 0711UTC and it appears the beacon
has changed to a short tx burst.
The guys from UW CubeSat team report via FB "its in safe mode" and they
are "trouble shooting"

Subject: [amsat-bb] Upcoming ARISS contact with Turkey Space Camp,
Izmir, Turkey
Message-ID: <D5960E35C7004246BD5ED7A4E83FA016@???>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"
An International Space Station school contact has been planned with
participants at Turkey Space Camp, Izmir, Turkey on 19 March. The event is
scheduled to begin at approximately 08:59 UTC. It is recommended that you
start listening approximately 10 minutes before this time. The duration of
the contact is approximately 9 minutes and 30 seconds. The contact will be a
telebridge between NA1SS and W5RRR. The contact should be audible over the
state of Texas and adjacent areas. U.S. Interested parties are invited to
listen in on the 145.80 MHz downlink. The contact is expected to be
conducted in English.
As a space and science education center, Space Camp Turkey is primarily
focused on motivating young people from around the world to pursue careers
in science, math, and technology. Through interactive, space-related
simulations, both youth and adults learn about communication, teamwork, and
leadership in a dynamic, fun-filled environment.
Programs at Space Camp Turkey focus on simulators to give participants the
sensations of working and living in space. At Space Camp Turkey, we pack
years of mission training into 2 to 6 day programs. Space Camp Turkey is
one of only two Space Camps in the world. We are proud to have the only such
facility in Turkey, the Middle East, Europe and Asia. It is located in the
Aegean Free Zone, a high-tech industrial park in Izmir, operated by ESBAS.
Izmir is a vibrant Aegean city on the western coast of Turkey with a
population of over 4 million.
Education and entertainment center Space Camp Turkey, which was opened on
June 12, 2000 has been visited by more than 250 thousand young people and
adults from over 60 countries. Our state-of-the-art facility offers an ideal
environment where young people from different nations can come together to
build long-term friendships and understand other cultures.
Our counselor staff (Turkish and International) consists of college
graduates and undergraduates. Some are education majors while others are
pursuing masters and doctorate degrees in astronomy or have certificates in
various education programs. All program staff members receive training in
the following areas: space education, Space Camp Turkey activities, and
safety for simulator operations.
Participants will ask as many of the following questions as time allows:
1. What does a launch feel like?
2. How long did you have to train before you actually flew to space?
3. What changes did you feel in your body as a result of microgravity?
4. What do you do when you aren't on a space mission?
5. What is the coolest thing you have seen while on the space station?
6. How would sneezing be different in weightlessness?
7. Do we age faster in space?
8. What is the most interesting thing about the Artemis mission?
9. Does your appetite change in space?
10. When you were younger, did you think about becoming an astronaut in the
future?
11. Can you hear any sound in space?
12. Do you ever feel like you are upside down in space?
13. Who controls the space station?
14. What does space smell like?
15. What are the three things that you miss back on Earth?
16. How do you grow vegetables and fruits in space?
17. How can I visit the planets?
18. How do you see stars from space?
19. What would you like to take with you from home for your space travel? I
would take my plush kangaroo.
20. This year we are celebrating our 20th anniversary of Space Camp Turkey.
We would love to hear your message to our campers listening to you right now.

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 (STEM)
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.
Thank you & 73,

Just tried to work the end of the AO-92 L/V pass and there was a very load
signal covering up the d/l here. The noise seemed to be on the d/l signal
itself. I never heard this before. I did manage to barely work WB8OTH, and
NS3L as their signals where solid. Anyone else notice it?

AISAT-1 has not been digipeating for a couple of days now, unfortunately.
There was a downlink beacon from it on 3/16, but no digipeats on that
pass. I haven't even heard beacons since that orbit.
For those who are 9600 full-duplex capable and in range of the southerly
orbit, don't forget that FalconSat-3 continues to do well both for APRS and
the store-and-forward BBS.

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.??

Also, what about the APRS Laban-Orari (AO86) (YBOX-1) also in a near
equatorial orbit and usable throughout the low latitudes?
I have not seen any users on the pcsat.findu.com live downlink page though
its telemetry is there and numerous SATGATES are linking it to the FINDU
pages.

AISAT-1 has not been digipeating for a couple of days now, unfortunately.
There was a downlink beacon from it on 3/16, but no digipeats on that
pass. I haven't even heard beacons since that orbit.
For those who are 9600 full-duplex capable and in range of the southerly
orbit, don't forget that FalconSat-3 continues to do well both for APRS
and the store-and-forward BBS.

I'm sure those of you that were on the SO-50 pass this morning at 16:38
utc heard that rude operator who repeatedly threw out his call sign and
called "CQ satellite".? He was stomping over everyone and apparently
didn't hear those of us who responded to his call, myself and Doug N6UA
had responded to him among others .My thought was this is a "newbie"
that has never worked the birds before, so I figured I would look him up
on QRZ and send him a friendly email offering some help and suggestions.
Low and behold this guy's QRZ page is papered with scads of award
certificates including, get this, a VUCC satellite award! You'd think
he'd know better! I did kindly offer some suggestions and help including
not calling "CQ satellite" and referred him to AMSAT's web site.? In
addition, he was keeping operators from a QSO with N6UA who is roving
right now.? I don't know if he was operating full duplex or maybe he
didn't have his downlink frequency correct. Regardless, his signal was
so strong and overpowering, i sincerely question if he was putting out
just 5 watts.
We had a much better pass on AO-91 at 19:07.
