School,	Komotini, Greece
Message-ID: <8BFACD7D190E4663B8BCB22D31D85F30@xxx>
Content-Type: text/plain;	charset="iso-8859-1"

An International Space Station school contact has been planned with
participants at 3rd Junior High School, Komotini, Greece on 16 Feb. The
event is scheduled to begin at approximately 09:50 UTC. The duration of the
contact is approximately 9 minutes and 30 seconds. The contact will be
direct between OR4ISS and SV7APQ. The contact should be audible over Greece
and adjacent areas. Interested parties are invited to listen in on the
437.525 MHz downlink. The contact is expected to be conducted in English.





The 3rd Junior High School of Komotini is one of the 13 schools of Secondary
Education that operate in Komotini, a city in the Region of Eastern
Macedonia and Thrace, in the north-east of Greece. Our school is one of the
oldest in the Municipality of Rodopi. The current building was constructed
in 1992. Its a relatively new building with 16 classrooms, and laboratories
for Computer Science, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Music rooms,
multiple-function rooms and a fully-equipped library. There are
approximately 350 registered students (age 12-15), and 38 teachers of
different fields in our school. One of the main characteristics of our
school is its multi-cultural character. 25% percent of our students come
from repatriated Greek families who lived for about a century in countries
of the Former Soviet Union (Russia, Georgia, Armenia, Ukraine, etc) and came
back to Greece in 1990 after the collapse of the regime in the countries of
Eastern Europe. These students speak both the Gr
 eek and the Russian language fluently. 16% percent of our students are
Muslims. The existence of a Greek Muslim minority in Thrace has been
recognized internationally since 1922. Among them, there is a significant
number of Pomaks and Roma students. There are integration classes for
students with special educational needs and learning disabilities taught by
teachers of Special Education. Additionally, every year many national
educational programmes, such as Environmental Education, Health Education,
Consumer Education and many Cultural programmes (music, dance, theatre, art,
radio, astronomy) are implemented. Our school also has a very active cycling
club. Students go on various educational trips every year, visiting other
parts of Greece and expanding their learning skills and abilities.





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



1. What is the most challenging problem of living in space?

2. Can you see the moon closer from Earth, is it different?

3. How do you stabilize the food on the table?

4. How often do you do extravehicular activity?

5. Is it very difficult to become an astronaut?

6. Do you have sufficient oxygen in ISS?

7. If you had just one wish to become true for your job what would it be?

8. If a member of the crew is injured can you give him first aid?

9. When you come back to earth, is it easy for you to walk?

10. Which is the difference between day and night in Earth and in Moon?

11. What is the main target of your expedition?

12. Can you see meteor showers from space?

13. Have you ever seen a comet from space?

14. How long did the preparation for this expedition last?

15. How many hours do you work, do you have shifts?

16. What is the most extreme procedure of your expedition?

17. What is your favorite food in space?

18. How old were you when you decided to become an astronaut and what was the

    motive of your decision?

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

Here's the deal, I've been having good 70cm ISS reception, however I get no
digipeats. I know it's busy, but in 3+ months of trying nothing..!! Rig is
a IC-9100, microkeyer II, and using SatPC32ISS. A pair of very capable CP
yagi's with AZ/EL tracking. Two ways I operate the 9100 is as follows.
either split mode and SatPC32ISS in cat mode and doing doppler
coordination, or using 3 memory channels in the 9100, one low, one center,
and one high on the ISS 70cm side. (437.500, 437.550, & 437.60) and I use
only 1 -20 (less)watts normally.

I suspect I have errors in my outgoing packets. Not one has been
digipeated. I'm using CQ and Ariss when sending. Nothing..

I need to know what I have wrong with my settings in UISS/soundmodem. The
alc is good and the soundmodem via the MKII seems to be working fine.

Need copy of a good uiss config file for me to compare my settings or take
a look at what I've pasted here and tell me what I've got wrong..

You have to have 5 memory channels and all but the center one have to have
reverse Doppler between uplink and downlink.  IE, the first one has to
listen 10 kHz HIGH and TX  10 kHz LOW. And so on.  Ending at RX 10 kHz low
and TX 10 kHz high.

Hi Paul,

Thanks for the reply and your insight. I think you missed the question I
was asking. I understand that people tune the uplink signal on Mode B, and
the downlink signal on Mode J, where the 70cm band is the one being retuned.

I was discussing where you never tune the transmitter, you stay on the same
frequency, and the effect that doppler shift has on the downlink signal.
To me it seems that the downlink signal, all by itself due to doppler
shift, moves in different directions on the two different modes-it seems to
decrease in frequency in Mode J as the satellite approaches you and then
passes you, but seems to increase in frequency in Mode B when approaching
you.  Is that correct?

John,

Let's take a look at the examples.

If you fix your transmit frequency on an overhead pass of FO-29 at
145.950 MHz, your signal at the satellite at the beginning of the pass
will appear to be 145.953 MHz. The transponder will retransmit your
signal at 435.847 MHz, which will appear to you around 435.857 MHz. At
the middle of the pass, your signal at the satellite will be at
145.950 MHz so the transponder will retransmit your signal at 435.850
MHz, and you'll receive it at 435.850 MHz.

Say you fix your transmit frequency on an overhead pass of XW-2F at
435.340 MHz. Your signal at the satellite at the beginning of the pass
will be around 435.350 MHz. The transponder will retransmit your
signal at 145.980 MHz, which will appear to you at 145.983 MHz. At the
middle of the pass, your signal at the satellite will be 435.340 MHz,
the transponder will retransmit your signal at 145.990 MHz, and you'll
receive it at 145.990 MHz.

The reason for the difference is the different magnitude of the
Doppler shift between the two bands (435 MHz having about triple the
Doppler shift of 145 MHz), so, yes, a fixed transmit station will
drift down on a Mode J satellite and up on a Mode B satellite. If you
fix your transmit on Mode J, your signal will drift about 7 kHz on the
transponder during an overhead pass, however on Mode B, your signal
will drift about 20 kHz on the transponder.

73,

Paul, N8HM

Hi All

This week my daughter Erin has been learning about the doppler effect.

To demonstrate the effect in practice we listened to the ARISS UHF QSO
between Astronaut Thomas Pesquet and Coll?ge Andr? Malraux,
Chatelaillon-Plage, France, via F4KJT

We were also able to watch HamTV live via the BATC stream.

437.535 MHz +- 10 KHz Doppler.
We made a video of our doppler observations.
