Hi Alan,

yes, we will be streaming again this year, and I will also endeavor to
get the video's online ASAP afterwards.
We are, as always, limited by the hotel infrastructure and time of volunteers.

Hi!

I am going to be operating from one, and maybe two, sites in the ARRL's
National Parks on the Air program during Thursday. I plan on starting
the day from the western part of Saguaro National Park, west of Tucson
AZ. I hope to be in Tucson for the western SO-50 pass around 1550 UTC,
and plan on staying in the park for other passes until I at least make
contacts with at least 10 different stations. I see AO-85 passes in the
midday timeframe, so I should be around through at least those passes.
Depending on how the mountains are in relation to the roads through
that part of the national park, I may not operate from just one spot.
Saguaro National Park is NPOTA site NP49, and in grid DM42.

If I make the requisite number of contacts with unique call signs from
Saguaro National Park for an official NPOTA activation (10), I am
thinking about making another stop on the way back to Phoenix late in
the afternoon. The Picacho Peak State Park is a state park along the
I-10 freeway about 50 miles/80km northwest of Tucson. This state park
is not part of the NPOTA program, but it is along the Juan Bautista de
Anza National Historic Trail that is part of NPOTA. The state park is
one of the many sites along this trail with a National Park Service
passport stamp for the trail. I may be able to work the SO-50 pass
around 2245 UTC, which covers much of the continental USA and Canada,
from here. There is a slight possibility of also working the 2125 UTC
AO-85 pass, but I'm not 100% sure I'll be up to Picacho Peak in time
for that one. Just like Saguaro National Park and the Tucson area,
this location is also in grid DM42, and the trail's NPOTA code is TR13.

For US history buffs, Picacho Peak is the site of the westernmost battle
during the US Civil War in the 1860s, the Battle of Picacho Pass. There
are re-enactments of that battle every year at the park, and lately there
have been more people at the re-enactments than were involved in the
actual battle in 1862!

One really good way to track my travels on Thursday is via APRS. I will
use my TH-D72A on the terrestrial APRS network as I drive around southern
Arizona, and I'll squawk my location as WD9EWK-9. Among other sites, you
can see my location show up at:

http://aprs.fi/WD9EWK-9

I will try to update the AMSAT-BB with what I am doing during the day, but
the best place for last-minute updates - and maybe some photos of where I
am operating from - will be my @xxxxxx Twitter feed. If you aren't on
Twitter yourself, not to worry. You can view my Twitter feed at:

http://twitter.com/WD9EWK

QSOs will be uploaded to Logbook of the World sometime after I return from
southern Arizona. Temperatures will be at or over 104F/40C in the afternoon
down there, so I am not worrying about trying to upload QSOs to LOTW while I
am at either of these sites.

73!

Hi All,

In advance of the upcoming AMSAT-UK Colloquium which starts tomorrow,
FUNcube-1 is now in continuous transponder mode. We expect to revert to
autonomous mode on Monday evening.

FUNcube-2 transponder continues to be operational.

We also anticipate that the FUNcube-3 transponder on EO79 may also be
activated for some orbits tomorrow, and also possibly on Saturday as well.

Further news about these spacecraft and further upcoming FUNcube missions
will be made available at the Colloquium.

This was filmed on Sunday July 17th, 2016 on the Craggy Overlook Trail
on the Blue  North Carolina.

I think this video is pretty fun! This was my first National Parks on
The Air (NPOTA) activation and it couldn't have been more exciting and
beautiful. I made ten contacts, which is the minimum required to get
credit for an NPOTA activation, and half of those contacts were from a
short pileup immediately after I put my call out on the bird, SO-50.

This pass is from Sunday July 17th 2016 but I technically did my first
activation the day before at the same place, and I even made 14
contacts on that near overhead pass, but I had more video sources
(four) from Sunday than Saturday, and I also operated better, with
more efficiency and with less screwups (though not none), than the
Sunday activation.

Saturday felt very hectic as I struggled to operate well while also
tracking the relatively faster moving satellite overhead. If I make a
video of that pass I'm sure it won't seem that bad to others but
that's just how it felt. I probably will make a video of that pass too
but I definitely also want to make more opportunities for me to
experience pileups like this. That's why it was so exciting.

As I said at the end of the video there are three national parks on
the Outer Banks of North Carolina: Cape Lookout, Cape Hatteras and the
 Wright Brothers National Memorial. I'm sure those would be great
places to get some cool video, though I'm not sure if I'll be able to
use my DSLR out in that harsh environment! They'll also just be fun to
visit.

I'm thinking of trying HF operation too as I bet I could get a pileup
there too. Maybe I'll get a Buddipole. That would be a cool addition
to my operating  because over the last year I've done almost
exclusively satellite communications. It would be another opportunity
for a different kind of video too.

Until next time, thanks for watching!

73, John Brier KG4AKV

Barring bad weather and the unforeseen, the XYL and I plan to drive up to
Johnson City TN tomorrow, Friday 29 July 2016. I hope to be there in time to
set up for the western ascending pass of the FO-29 satellite at 1822z. Then
after sampling the local Tennessee barbecue, I intend to get the gear out
again to operate on a near overhead descending pass of SO-50 at 2130z.


I will only be operating with 5 watts, so I'd like to ask people to not
pound the satellite with high power or call me needlessly. If I can get into
the bird, I will be calling CQ or working someone. Look for me in the lower
half of the FO-29 passband around 838-840. I have a small list of calls I
will be specifically listening for... if you would like to get on 'my list',
send me an e-mail before morning to n4ufo@xxxxx.xxx or send me a direct
message on twitter to @xxxxxxxx where I will also post any updates when/if I
am near a Wi-Fi spot. I also hope to upload my logs to LotW from the field.

Hi All,

As suggested yesterday, we now expect the transponder to be activated during
the upcoming pass over Europe around 10:!5 UTC ? it should stay on until the
battery safe mode trigger is activated after perhaps 6 or 7 orbits. Saturday
will probably be a recharge day and not active. However on Sunday we expect
it to again  be activated.

If you are not able to attend the AMSAT-UK Colloquium tomorrow you can watch
a webstream - kindly provided by volunteers from the British Amateur
Television Club (BATC).  https://beta.batc.tv/live/amsatuk  The FUNcube
session starts at around 11:10 BST / 10:10 UTC and will provide an update on
the plans for the future regular operation of this transponder.

Hi,

With Graham's announcement that the EO79/Funcube-3 transponder has been
activated for a few days, I want to give a listen.

I am confused if it has telemetry or not.

funcube.org.uk says it is "transponder only", and there is no mention of
funcube-3 in the data warehouse.

amsat.org says it has telemetry on 148.815.

Anybody know for sure?

Yes it has.

EO-79 (QB50p1) BPSK 1200 (145.815) I not sure if this will also be
available when the transponder is active.

Unfortunately nothing heard during a 1504 to 1517 UTC pass over the east
coast of the US.  I tried DL bottom+5Khz, center, top-5, then shifted my
uplink +/-25KHz.  Was never able to hear my CW downlink.

Had Doppler.sqf of:
