Hi Jose. It looks like the ISS is sending packet at the moment. Just check
out https://www.AMSAT.org/status/ to see what is happening with all the birds.

The radio should be in packet mode.? I am going to try and indicate what
mode the radio is being set back to after an ARISS contact when I post the
ARISS announcements to the AMSAT-BB.? I will also try to let everyone know
what mode is being used if the mode changes again between ARISS school
contacts.?73,Charlie Sufana AJ9NOne of the ARISS Mentors?In a message dated

jerome, F4DXV, will be operating from a 1500M summit in JN15jo on
Monday, 19 October at 2000UTC on RS-44 specifically for North America.
The operation has been planned around the coverage of this specific pass
such that much of eastern North America will have an excellent chance
for a contact with this rare grid.
The last 200M of elevation to the summit is on foot. Jerome will arrive
at the summit in daylight but will make the descent back to the road
after this pass in darkness. Weather may also be an issue. This is not
a walk on the beach.
Jerome is an experienced operator and will do his best to work everyone
that can hear him. Good Luck.

I've looked all over LoTW and I can't find a place where they give
definitions for their mode and submode abbreviations. Is PKT the
abbreviation for packet as used for ISS APRS? Where do they define their
abbreviations?

on-risks/
On Tuesday, LeoLabs, a company that monitors the paths of space junk in
low-Earth orbit, announced on Twitter it was tracking a potential
conjunction?that's space-speak for a mid-orbit crash?tonight between a
defunct Soviet satellite and a discarded Chinese rocket stage.
According to the company's latest calculations, the objects are expected to
come within 80 feet of each other (?59 feet). The probability of a
collision is greater than 10 percent. If the satellites collide, the impact
could spread a network of debris throughout low-Earth Orbit.

There are lots of modes, and they are further grouped into ?mode groups.?
Open TQSL, click on ?Create an ADIF file?? and then ?Mode.? The drop-down
list will show all the available modes. -Scott K5TA

I hope everyone gets a chance to tune into the AMSAT symposium Saturday the
17th. I will try to if I can, but I do have a presentation and demo of
Amateur Radio in space for the Bedford, TX radio club on Saturday morning
via Zoom from my back yard. I am hoping to work one SO-50 FM pass, (1533Z
AOS for me) and then one XW-2A pass (1602Z) while doing the presentation.
We had hopes of doing something in person but COVID.... I have been told
that in an edited form, this might end up on the Ham Radio 2.0 video podcast
so we will see.
Please look for me, N5HYP, or give me a call outright and help promote AMSAT
and Amateur Radio in space to a broader audience.
