James,

Can Hope work AO-7? in about 10 mins? I have a sked with OM6DC on about
145.945-950 She might be able to work him as well. Haven't looked at the
footprint for you.

In fact it's not the case that they use 4 digit locators on EME. 4 digit
locators are used in many JT modes just because there are some spare
bits in the message format.

I think that operators EME CW don't send locators ever. They have their
own signal report system called TMO, where they send one of the letters
T, M or O three times based on the amount of data they could copy.

http://www.nitehawk.com/rasmit/g3sek_op_proc.pdf

For MS there is signal report system based on the length an strength of
the pings.

http://www.g0che.co.uk/ms-procedure.php

The thing is that in the US 4 digit locators are normally used for
terrestrial VHF and such instead of 6 digit locators. In fact, 6 digit
locators are almost unheard of and many operators won't know their 6
digit locator. I read recently a proposal of change to the rules of the
IARU R1 50MHz contest regarding this matter. This contest currently
requires that 6 digit locators are exchanged over the air. However,
there is a problem that US operators will usually pass just 4 digit
locators and it's difficult explain and get their 6 digit locator under
marginal propagation conditions (the usual conditions in transatlantic
50MHz).

I don't know either, but it's only the case in Europe. In the US they
normally use 4 digit locators on satellites. I think that the difference
in use comes from terrestrial VHF.

The thing is that perhaps we as a community of satellite operators
should decide what do we consider as a signal report or valid contact.
As you said, the standard signal report doesn't make much sense for
satellites. The report could be the locator, but I don't think this is
such a good idea because it is not so easy to copy a 6 digit locator in
poor conditions (in Europe the many different accents and languages
don't help either). The report should be easier to copy.

I agree that in good conditions you can send back and forth 6 digit
locators real quick. However, in poor conditions, if you want to get
them copied properly, you will probably have to repeat it several times
and perhaps request a readback.

The problem with any idea about changing the established customs is that
the satellite community is quite big and spread out. Most of the
operators don't read amsat-bb. By comparison, the EME and MS communities
are smaller and the guys there tend to frequent the same mailing lists
and webs for skeds.

Could you get IO95? I hear that's quite a rare grid.

It took much longer into the pass to pick up a solid signal and when I got
it, except for the top of the pass I had to aim the antenna perfectly to
get the signal.

The only thing differently about my setup today was I had the 70 cm
elements installed on the boom too because I was using it to work SO-50
recently and didn't have time to take them off.

Could this make the antenna less sensitive on 2 meters? Because that's what
it felt like. Very dissapointing for me since I normally have no trouble
getting the ISS from horizon to horizon.

With that said it sounded like they got through all of their questions and
Tim Kopra got to say goodbye.

In his goodbye he repeated part of his answer to a question, saying one of
the most important things to do to get space was to play nice with others.
He said it wasn't important just in getting to space but also for life in
general. A great message.

Congrats to all involved in this succesful contact, but someone please tell
me why it was so hard for me to receive!

I also used an Arrow antenna with both 2 m and 70 cm elements installed.
I had some trouble at first, but I think it's because I was still
fiddling with my radio. I thought I had it set up ahead of time, but I
didn't. Anyway, the first few minutes were rough, but the rest of the
transmission was received just fine.

It sounded to me like the ISS was using the 5 watt Ericsson HT instead of
the higher power Kenwood rig. I've noticed that the signal strength varies
with the position of the ISS with respect to my station when working packet
via their HT. I'm running on a vertical until the weather improves to get my
yagi back up.

When he was active, Pat, G3IOR, made quite a few Mode B QSOs beyond normal

The default is to use the handheld from the Columbus module. In some
cases a mobile rig from the russian segment is used which is much
stronger. The orientation of the ISS and the movements of solar panels
also make a difference. So normally the same radio/antenna combination
as the packet is used, so coverage/signal should be similar.

Which contact are you comparing the signal to (date/time)? What was
the max elevation of that contact and what was your max elevation this
time?

(There is a plan to replace the faulty mobile rig in the colombus
module at some stage)

Yeah that kinda sounds like my experience except I had difficulty through
most of the first half and the second half.

There was a point in the beginning where I realized I was aiming way off.
It was actually at max elevation for me and I was still aiming towards
where the beginning of the pass was. As soon as I aimed higher and in the
right direction it came in very strong and I didn't have to hold the
antenna in a sweet spot.

But a minute or two later, towards the end of the pass I had to have the
antenna rotated for the right polarization and direction. It was
interesting in that I could really tell exactly where the ISS was because I
had be precisely on target. Faraday rotation was very dramatic too, just
slightly off axis on the polarization and I lost the signal entirely. Of
course I have video of this all so it will be very interesting to review.

One extra bit of trouble-shooting info: I was able to receive and get into
a repeater 120 miles away. It's one I've gotten into several times from up
here on my landfill park, and the signal and my report was about like
normal. So that suggests there might not have been an issue with my antenna.

The only other thing I can think of was that I did not adjust for doppler
in the beginning. When I finally tried to a minute or two (or three?) into
the pass it didn't make a difference. Though I guess at that point you
should be on the center.frequency anyway.

But I almost never adjust for doppler and it's fine. Even on the last pass
I did before this over K6DUE in Maryland, which is even closer to me than
Alabama and which made for a higher pass and thus had a more dramatic
change in speed relative to me, it made very little difference.

I'm not comparing the signal to the 20-25 watt Kenwood in the Russian
segment. The Russians haven't done any US contacts since last summer AFAIK,
but it is waaayyy stronger, for sure.

The idea that it was solar panels or orientation might explain it but I did
have difficulty through most of the pass. You.would think signal strength
would change through the pass if it were solar panels at least. Hmm.

Dave,
I am also in Orlando and was surprised that I could not copy them. I didn't

have waited.

Good copy here in Orlando for about 3 minutes starting after 2 or 3 minutes
