In this week's Amsat News there was a story on the AIS experiment on the
ISS.  What's it's downlink frequency and what form of modulation is used?

Subject: Webcast from Hollywood

Ok we are confirmed to do the webcast of Special events station K6H from
the set of ABC's hit TV show Last Man Standing

Kathy and I will be flying out there Sept 27 and will stay one week.

We will be taking as much webcast equipment that we can but the studio will
provide everything else that we will need and can not carry.

We originally were going to bring in this event remotely but yesterday we
were asked to come out there and do it on set.  The offer was too good to
refuse.

The W5KUB.COM webcast will be in two parts.

part 1 Saturday Sept 27 we will webcast from 9:00 AM until Noon PST or
later from the Hollywood set. John Amodeo, NN6JA will join me and we will
give tours, talk about the set of Last Man Standing, watch the PAPA system
group set up their operating positions for the show the next day.  There
will be 6 operating positions set up working HF, vhf, uhf, d-star,
echolink, and IRLP. You will meet various people and hear interesting
interviews.

Part 2 Sunday Sept 28 We will be live on set with the K6H Special Events
station as they make contacts.  We will move around to various operating
positions. Also on this day we are planning on a lot of great interviews
with Big name hams from the West Coast. Dont be surprise to see some famous
people. We dont have that detail yet as this thing just started snowballing
out of control yesterday.  It will be non-stop planning for the next two
week up to the event.  I will even say that we will have spur of the moment
interviews with people that dont make it into the list.

More to come. You may distribute this if you like. We will be putting up
announcements in email and facebook soon.

Dave, AIS is receive only, around 162 MHz.

I think the downlink frequency of the AIS payload on the ISS? could be
different from the terrestrial freq .

Beginning Saturday, September 13, I'll be in FN24bk and will remain through
Friday, September 19.

In addition to FN24, I should have a few opportunities to operate also from
FN14 or the FN24/FN14 grid line.

My operations will be handheld on SO-50 only.

I'll be happy to QSL anyone who needs those grids confirmed.

The thought never even occurred to me that AIS might have it's own dedicated
radio downlink, I assumed AIS like other ISS data would go via the broadband
Internet connection. A dedicated downlink would require the creation and
maintenance of a ground-station network.


The eoPortal has a wealth of information on the AIS experiment and mentions
the ARISS involvement, see
https://directory.eoportal.org/web/eoportal/satellite-missions/i/iss-colais

I could see no mention of a dedicated transmitter, the article says: "10
days of near-real-time data show that 80% of the messages collected
in the period could be delivered through the station's communications
network with data latency significantly less than 1 hour."

To me that implies it's going via the Internet link which I think may be
KU-Band via Geostationary satellites ?

I've been organizing my logs, QSLs and the like and was wondering if anyone
had a QSL address for HL0BTW?



He does not seem to be listed in the usual places.



I worked him on AO-13 a couple years back (anyway it seems like a couple).

Weak signal from EM0UKPI , POLYITAN-1 heard 0959 UTC today as predicted on

CW beacon followed by data burst - but very weak on the SDR display of my
FCD Pro+.
