As an example of what Paul is talking about, CAS-4B is known as: ZHUHAI-1
02 (CAS 4B).
It might not be found in the list if you were only looking for CAS-4B.

It would be really handy if the Guide would list the satellite's catalog
number under the name. That's universal.

Yes, but the Frequency Guide sits nicely under my satellite rig, so it's

Hi,I noted the comments and reports regarding sources of signals being
received whilst monitoring AO-7.I am located in Wales ( UK ) and use a
simple "ELK " antenna and "Funcube" dongle for monitoringmany of the
satellites.I can confirm that recently whilst monitoring? I noted strong
signals in the band with the software forFox satellites and others during
pass times in the morning and late evening.I checked out both MOVE -11? (
Operates 145.950 Mhz ) and MOVE- 11b ( Operates 145.840 Mhz ).
The signals were very strong and ?the Fox Telemetry software in auto? late
yesterday evening(8th April )? Move-11b on 145.840 and quite wide - It
prevented the software from locking onto the Foxsatellite that I was
tracking at times.Ken EatonGW1FKY

>From ARISS Vice Chair Oliver Amend DG6BCE: ESA Astronauts to offer
inspiration during isolation in????? #SpaceConnectsUs
?
https://www.esa.int/Newsroom/Astronauts_to_offer_inspiration_during_isolation_
in_SpaceConnectsU
In Europe and around the world, we?ve been getting used to a different way
of living in recent weeks. On Thursday, 26 March, ESA and long-time partner
Asteroid Day will host #SpaceConnectsUs ? a chance to connect across borders
and hear from space explorers, artists, and scientists about how to manage
ourselves and our environment as our communities battle a global pandemic.
#SpaceConnectsUs is an online event running on March 26th from 16:00?21:00
CET (15:00?20:00 GMT) on ESA WebTV and ESA YouTube to help everyone
practising social distancing or in isolation enjoy science, our home planet,
and our dreams of the sky above us.
The programme will feature remote connections with astronauts and guests
from all over the world.? The presenters and guests will speak to children,
young adults and their families and friends about their experience and
techniques in confined places, lessons in life from space exploration, their
trust in science and their sources of inspiration.? The programme runs in
five language segments starting at 16:00 in Dutch, followed by German (17:00
CET), Italian (18:00 CET), French (19:00 CET) and English (20:00 CET, 19:00
GMT).
?
Celestron, the telescope, microscope, and sports optics folks, now has
something called #STEMINYOURBACKYARD that you can find on Instagram,
Facebook, or Twitter.? By the way, I don't work for Celestron or have any
business dealings with them and this is just something I saw.? Apparently
there are 10 free STEM activities covering Astronomy, Nature and Wildlife,
and The Microscopic World.? Check out:?

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.??

guidelines and proposal form, and dates and times of Information Webinars,

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.

Hello all,
I have spend my stay-at-home time hunting... OA4/XQ3SA has been very active
on AO7... after 4 days yesterday finally got him, we have a very small
window between EM55 and FH17; The old but trusted AO7 came thru for me.
Looking at my records that is the longest qso so far I have done via the
birds, around 3385 miles.
He seem to have some local QRN, but he is there on almost every afternoon
pass.
