The ADIF standard is MHz.  Bands are defined with MHz limits.  How a
program (or LOTW) displays those frequencies is up to those programs.
You'll find that the DXLab Suite adheres very closely to the ADIF and
with good reason if you see who is a main driver behind the latter.
:-)

SAT_MODE and SAT_NAME are both strings, not enumerated variables, so
it's up to the software author to put something there that makes
sense.

This is what AA6YQ is trying to do but, sadly, AMSAT doesn't have a
standard it's willing to stick with.

"AMSAT doesn't have a standard it's willing to stick with."

As I've said many times, we do have a standard. We've had the same
standard for nearly 20 years. It's reflected on the website and in
AMSAT publications.

Many of us choose to use the old mode designations out of tradition,
especially when operating on AO-7 (which, literally does have Modes A
and B) and I like the single letter mode descriptions out of
simplicity.

Software developers that want to provide a field for the satellite
mode designator should permit the use of single letter designators
(which include the old hybrid single letter designators, like AJ, plus
JA and JD for analog vs. digital) as well as the dual letter
designators.

Dual letter designators are easy, but only go up to 47 GHz. Permit the
use of any of these letters as the up or downlink as appropriate for
the satellite:

H
A
V
U
L
S
S2
C
X
K
R

Paul, N8HM

I will note this excellent write up on logging satellite QSOs on Logbook of
the World. N5JB boils it down to exactly what?s needed for LoTW confirmations.

Message-ID: <E3EDF55DF5A3406BA75560453817FB85@xxx>

An International Space Station school contact has been planned with
participants at Space Jam 10, Rantoul IL on 06 Aug. The event is scheduled
to begin at approximately 15:59 UTC. It is recommended that you start
listening approximately 10 minutes before this time.The duration of the
contact is approximately 9 minutes and 30 seconds. The contact will be a
telebridge between OR4ISS and IK1SLD. The contact should be audible over
Italy and adjacent areas. Interested parties are invited to listen in on the
145.80 MHz downlink. The contact is expected to be conducted in English.





Greetings from the participants and volunteers of Space Jam 10 in Rantoul,
Illinois. Though primarily a weekend Scouting and STEM education event, we
are open to all interested youth. Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts from 27 states
have come together in an educational and fun format to learn life skills
that will prepare them for the increasingly complex future. We are adding
Art to STEM this year making STEAM. While it is well known that Scouting
teaches pioneering skills like camping and wilderness survival, the new
pioneers and wilderness are in outer space and we are working hard at 44
technology oriented Merit Badges and activities, plus some fun things like
the Duct Tape Merit Badge. Talking to the astronauts on the ISS is an
unforgettable part of the experience at Space Jam and that's next on our
list. We will not know for many years whether one of these youths becomes an
astronaut themselves but it is certain that they are all part of tomorrow's
leaders.





Participants will ask as many of the following questions as time allows:



1. How do you train to sleep in space?

2. What type of engine propulsion will we use to go to Mars?

3. Could we drop containers to the Mars surface but leave the engine in

   orbit?

4. Would a steam powered train whistle work in space?

5. How long did you train for this mission?

6. Could cables be stretched to an EARTH orbiting station & used as tracks
to reach orbit?

7. Could cables be stretched to a MARS orbiting station & used as tracks to
reach orbit?

8. If a ship left Mars, traveling 17,500 mph, what is the shortest time it
could take to reach Earth?

9. What activity do you look forward to the most when you wake up on the ISS?

10. Will you be training for future missions?

11. What is your favorite food on the space station?

12. How many bits of space junk does NASA track & how can we reduce the
problem?

13. Are there earth-bound disabilities that might be irrelevant in space
weightlessness?

14. Is there art on the walls of the ISS or do you see examples of the Arts
in space?

15. If we found cave art on Mars what do you imagine it would depict?

16. Are there any musical instruments on the ISS?

17. Every discipline can be an art; from the people who sew the stitches on
a space suit to a computer programmer, aren't we all artists when we do our
best?

18. The theme for SJ 10 is the Arts; should STEM education be changed to
STEAM?

19. What music do you listen to on the ISS?

20. What is your favorite form of art?

21. How is the espresso machine working?

22. What fresh foods do you most look forward to on delivery day?

23. When will we first set foot on Mars?

24. When will we go back to the Moon?

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 Center for the Advancement of Science in
Space (CASIS) and  National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). 
The primary goal of ARISS is to promote exploration of science, technology,
engineering, and mathematics (STEM) topics by organizing scheduled contacts
via amateur radio between crew members aboard the ISS and students in
classrooms or informal education venues.  With the help of experienced
amateur radio volunteers, ISS crews speak directly with large audiences in a
variety of public forums.  Before and during these radio contacts, students,
teachers, parents, and communities learn about space, space technologies,
and amateur radio.  For more
  information, see www.ariss.org, www.amsat.org, and www.arrl.org.



Thank you & 73,

David - AA4KN

The extended transmit modification seems relatively simple.

http://www.hamradio.cc/forum/index.php?t=tree&th=132

That is always a cautionary tale with some older American model 440 FM HTs,
though. Some are limited to 440-450.

I'll be on vacation in Myrtle Beach, SC, with the Familythis week and part
of next week. We'll be staying near thefar north end of FM03 and close
enough that FM13 wouldbe a short jaunt. I'm intending to put them on the air
atleast a few times on FO29 & SO50. (Holiday style)

Hi!

I will make a quick trip to Montezuma Castle National Monument, site
MN52 for the ARRL's National Parks on the Air activity, tomorrow
afternoon (Saturday, 6 August) for a few passes. Montezuma Castle
National Monument is along I-17 near Camp Verde, Arizona - between
Phoenix and Flagstaff in grid DM44. For this activation, I am
focusing on the SO-50 pass at 2132 UTC, followed by an ISS pass at
2207 UTC. If AO-7 remains in mode B during the afternoon, I might
try the AO-7 pass at 2112 UTC before SO-50 comes by. Depending on
weather and how well I do on these passes, I might stick around for
later passes on these satellites, until the monument's closing time
at 5pm (0000 UTC).

During the mid- to late-afternoon, I should be able to tweet photos
and other updates on my activity from Montezuma Castle. My @xxxxxx
Twitter feed is public, and - if you don't do Twitter - visible at:

http://twitter.com/WD9EWK

I will upload my log to Logbook of the World after I return home. I
am hoping to work at least 10 different stations, to make this an
official activation under the ARRL's NPOTA rules.

73!
