NO-84 listeners want-a-bees,
Mark asked a good question for beginners (aren't we are all beginners
with a new mode?):

Given your 70cm FM radio, you will want to get an audio output that you
can connect to a sound card in your computer. You are looking for the
type of low level audio output that maybe you would feed to a rtty
modem, etc while is a SSB mode. Some radios might have special audio
connections for 1200 or 9600 baud FM packet - this is not what you want.
The audio connection you are looking for might be called AFSK or maybe
DATA - one that gives you the full 3KHz of bandwidth. Worse case, you
can use high level Speaker audio through an attenuator so as to not
overdrive your sound card.
Once you get the audio connected to your sound card, then probably the
easiest PSK31 program to start listening with is DigiPan. I find the
waterfall view very helpful to find signals to work. There is a good
picture of what to expect on the apps.org/psat.html web page. The
signals you will be able to decode are those vertical lines. In the web
picture you see the signal of DK3WN at about 1000 Hz. And you see the
beacon at 314 Hz. The slanted signal is a signal that is not being
doppler corrected - either ground based or trying to call thru NO-84.
These are much harder to decode.
So with your radio in FM, keep it tuned to the NO-84 downlink frequency
of nominally 435.350 MHz, remembering that at the beginning of a pass
the UHF signal is going to appear closer to 435.360 MHz, move through
435.350 at closest approach and leave you around 435.340 MHz all due to
the doppler shift. If the radio has a Narrow FM mode, that might help to
recover a stronger audio signal.
Once you can comfortable see some signals and decode them, you can then
move on to the transmit side. Probably DopplerPSK, by K0SM, is the
easiest way to start. Here you are using a USB HF signal which may be
more familiar to most hams as the standard setup for working PSK31 on
the HF bands.
Give it a try. NO-84 PSK31 is a challenge but doable.

Message-ID: <007401d13234$1e6c3070$5b449150$@xx.xxx>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
I left the receiver on today while I was away. I captured some packets on
145.825!
I need some help identifying the source meaning of the packet:
>From PSAT-1, what is APOFF telling me?
When the received packet is CQ via PSAT, ARISS, which satellite is it PSAT
or iSS?
What are these destinations? Special callsigns?
Fm N3FCX To S9UT2R
Fm K1WY To TQTU7U
Fm K0KOC-7 To 3Y2S1Y
Fm KB1CHU To APEG02
What is the meaning of this packet?
Fm r0VSp-8 To x-1 Via -3 <REJ R3 [DAMA]>[21:26:21]

Mark,
Your location showed up on both http://www.ariss.net/ and
http://aprs.fi/WD4ELG coming through via RS0ISS. Good
job!
Some of your other questions...
When NO-84's packet beacons show the call as PSAT-1, the
145.825 MHz APRS digipeater is off. The "APOFF" is also
an indicator of that. PSAT = NO-84. ARISS is recognized
by the ISS and NO-84 packet digipeaters. The 6-character
destinations are not important for APRS, as long as you
have a valid path for terrestrial or space operations.
Sometimes that destination identifies the radio or TNC
being used at that station.
When you see NO-84 packet beacons from PSAT, this means
the digipeater on 145.825 MHz is active. More about this
satellite is available at http://www.aprs.org/psat.html
NO-44 has been in orbit for 14 years, and is barely
working when in sunlight. I was able to use it for packet
QSOs about a year ago. It was originally designed to
recognize packets sent via ARISS, but now that doesn't
work. More information about NO-44 is available at
http://www.aprs.org/pcsat.html and its activity picked
up by gateway stations can be seen at the same page as
NO-84 packet activity: http://pcsat.aprs.org/
NO-44's beacons are showing up again, but the PCSAT web page
now states that digipeating via its call sign W3ADO-1 is not
authorized.
Good luck, and 73!

ARISS is always glad to receive listener reports for the above contacts.
ARISS thanks everyone in advance for their assistance. Feel free to send
your reports to aj9n@xxxxx.xxx or aj9n@xxx.xxx.

Several of you have sent me emails asking about the RAC ARISS website and
not being able to get in. That has now been changed to h
ttp://www.ariss.org/
Note that there are links to other ARISS websites from this site.

Looking for something new to do? How about receiving DATV from the ISS?
If interested, then please go to the ARISS-EU website for complete
details. Look for the buttons indicating Ham Video.

The ARISS (a joint effort of AMSAT, the ARRL, NASA, the ARISS
international
partners including Canada, Russia, the European Partners, and Japan)
operations
team wishes to announce the following very tentative schedule for ARISS
school
contacts. This schedule is very fluid and may change at the last minute.
Remember that amateur radio use on the ISS is considered secondary.
Please
check the various AMSAT and ARISS webpages for the latest announcements.
Changes from the last announcement are noted with (***). Also, please
check
MSNBC.com for possible live retransmissions
(http://www.msnbc.com/m/lv/default.asp). Listen for the ISS on the
downlink of
145.8? MHz.
The crossband repeater has been active at times.
The frequencies are uplink of 437.8? MHz and downlink of 145.8? MHz.
For information about educational materials available from ISS partner
space
Agencies, please refer to links on the ARISS Frequently Asked Questions
page.
If you are interested in supporting an ARISS contact, then you must fill
in an application. The ARISS operations mentor team will not accept a
direct request to support an ARISS contact; the application must first be
sent
to the ARISS region coordinator.
You should also note that many schools think that they can request a
specific date and time. Once an application has been accepted the ARISS
mentors will work with the school to determine a mutually agreeable date.
There are several ARISS web sites:
English: http://www.ariss.org/ Note this is the new site location.
This site also has links to many other ARISS sites:
http://www.ariss.org/other-ariss-websites.html
ARISS France: http://ariss.fr.free.fr/
ARISS Europe: http://www.ariss-eu.org/
ARISS Japan: http://www.jarl.or.jp/ariss/
Your completely filled out application should be returned to the
nearest coordinating ARISS region if your specific region is not
listed. E-mail is the preferred method of submitting an application.

To let you in on how tough it is to schedule contacts, here are some of
the constraints the ARISS mentors must work under:
Each Increment is 26 weeks in length.
For any given expedition, we typically may not schedule:
1. Anything the first 3 weeks.
2. During EVA weeks
3. At least 2 weeks prior to the Increment change.
4. No contacts during meal and exercise periods.
5. No contacts during post-sleep and pre sleep (before ?8:?? UTC and after
19:3? UTC)
6. Contacts on the day of Progress docking or undocking are circumspect.
Mike Fincke KE5AIT and Gennady Padalka RN3DT produced a video during their
stay on Expedition 9. You can get the QuickTime version (209MB) or the
Windows Media version (152MB). These files are huge, so only a broadband
connection is recommended. Thanks Mike and Gennady!

You can connect to the AMSAT Conference Room server at node 1?1377.
Audio is also available at times on the JK1ZRW server at node 2772?8.
Please connect to the *JK1ZRW* server to keep the load light on the *AMSAT*
server. This will ensure good audio quality for all listeners.

Currently the ARISS operations team has a list of 60 schools that we
hope will be able to have a contact during 2015. As the schedule becomes
more solidified, we will be letting everyone know. Current plans call for
an average of one scheduled school contact per week.
