NAC-contest is periodically every tuesday on 18:00 - 22:00 UTC. Every first tuesday a month is 144MHz, second tuesday 432MHz, third Tuesday 1296, fourth tuesday 2,3GHz and UP. There are also many european contest at the same time. So the contest stations were uplinked unintentionally by AO-7. -jari oh3uw ___ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org.

Perhaps I should have sent out QSL cards with SWL reports, just to encourage those operators to consider the possibility of raising their eyes above the horizon. -- 73, de Gus 8P6SM The Easternmost Isle ___ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org.

Drew, This evening was the 70cms RSGB Contest (UKAC) so most likely have been one of the stations taking part in that. 73, Peter, 2E0SQL On 9 October 2012 21:13, Andrew Glasbrenner wrote: > Just now on AO-7 I heard a terrestrial station (DL on LSB) working a > contest of some sort.

[amsat-bb] Re: EU members - UHF contest tonight?
Hi Drew et al. I have heard the same thing when there is a UHF contest going on. I try to send the station a email that he was loud and clear on satellite AO-7. Hoping that may nudge some satellite interest. Last couple of passes on AO-7 were very favorable from CN87 (Seattle) to Northern Europe. No one at home not even Mika. 73 Bob W7LRD Seattle, Wa. - Original Message - From: "Andrew Glasbrenner" To: "amsat-bb" Sent: Tuesday, October 9, 2012 1:13:24 PM Subject: [amsat-bb] EU members - UHF contest tonight?

Our IARU advisory satellite panel should rebut such coordination inquiries from commercial companies with a statement on their IARU coordination page like: "This Satellite would violate against act 'xyz' and is not coordinated" Then it would look good for the credibility of the IARU satellite panel. I would like to thank the panel for a great job they always do for our frequency bands.

[amsat-bb] CubeSats TLE
Hello dear CubeSats listener ! The TLE of the five CubeSats recently launched from ISS are now available with the NORAD registration numbers 1998-067-CN, CP, CQ, CR, CS. 1998 ? Yes as NORAD considers they are parts of the ISS, the first module of which, Zarya, was launched on November 20th 1998 and got the NORAD registration number 1998-067-A. Yesterday evening (evening in Western Europe, around 2130 UTC), I noticed that FITSAT-1 was already about 4 mn before the ISS predictions as this one modified altitude (higher). With a max. elevation angle of 83 deg., we received the 437.250 MHz beacon loud and clear. Have a good day my friends !
