WIA SECRETARY AND MORE ON DIRECTORS, Future and present. -
WIA AWARDS
THIS & MORE IN THIS EDITION OF NEWS FROM THE
WIRELESS INSTITUTE OF AUSTRALIA
The Binar Space Program is a space hardware project for research and
education within Curtin University's Space Science and Technology
Centre.
The primary objective of Binar is the development of Australian
space technology that enables planetary science research and
sovereign Australian space industry activity.
The team is primarily composed of graduate engineers working on
higher degrees by research and undergraduates seeking to develop
their skills. This group is supervised and advised by members of the
SSTC with previous experience building and operating space hardware
and others who are currently part of the science teams for several
major international missions including OSIRIS-Rex, Mars InSight and
Hayabusa-II.
The Binar-1 cubesat is currently in engineering testing and
development of all subsystem's hardware is complete whilst software
development is ongoing. The Binar laboratories at Curtin have been
setup with equipment for performing vacuum and vibration testing and
a rigorous testing campaign began with the proof of concept models of
each subsystem and continues with the engineering models.
The primary function of the communications link is to provide
telemetry for the on-orbit testing of hardware developed at Curtin
for educational and scientific purposes. Binar-1 provides a service
that will be used to also engage schools in various interactive
activities, promoting Amateur Radio, STEM and the space industry to
Australians from an early age
Frequencies are assigned by the IARU's Satellite Co-ordination team
and requires the support and endorsement of the WIA. The Space
Science and Technology centre thank the Wireless Institute of
Australia, the national association for Amateur Radio in Australia,
for their support.
Furthermore, we want to extend a special thank you to the
Northern Corridor Radio Group here in Perth, Western Australia.
They have been our bridge into the Amateur Radio world and they
supported us from the early stages of our project.
This has been Daniel-Cristian Busan VK6BUS from Curtin University.
WIA
Peter VK8ZZ (Secretary),
Last week I relayed a statement from John Marshall, the WIA
RETURNING OFFICER with the results of the WIA Board Elections.
I congratulate Phil VK2CPR, Lee VK3GK and Oscar VK3TX on successfully
nominating for a position on the Board of the WIA.
The Corporations Law specifies that companies, like the Wireless
Institute of Australia, with a financial year end of 31 December
must hold the AGM within 5 months thereof. The WIA AGM would normally
have been held in conjunction with the Annual Conference that was to
be held in Hobart Tasmania on 9th May 2020. Due to CoVID-19
restrictions on large gatherings, travel restrictions and health
concerns, the Board of the WIA has decided to cancel the 2020 annual
conference and to defer the AGM. The WIA has already made an
application to ASIC to defer it to a date yet to be determined.
ASIC has confirmed in writing that they recognise that COVID-19 is
impacting the ability of companies to hold Annual General Meetings.
On 20 March 2020, ASIC released a public no-action position to help
companies. This ASIC position indicates that they will take no action
if companies with a financial year end of 31 December 2019 postpone
their meeting for up to two months, meaning on or before 31 July 2020
The constitution (s14) provides that the change of directors of the
WIA will occur after the conclusion of the AGM. The delayed AGM means
that the orderly rotation of directors as per the constitution has
been disrupted.
Assuming a late Annual General Meeting, I sought legal advice on this
matter and was advised that one way to proceed would be for the
retiring 2 directors to resign or retire, effective in May 2020 and,
should they indicated a willingness to be appointed, for the board to
appoint the 3 new directors, simultaneously. The Board of the WIA
would then always have the required number of directors to function
each month on an ongoing basis. This would normally have occurred on
9th May 2020 had we held our AGM as anticipated.
The constitution is very specific on the maximum (7) and minimum (5)
numbers of Directors that may hold office at any point in time.
John VK4JJW has indicated to the Board that he intends to retire
effective on 9th May, the original date of the AGM, and he has
reaffirmed that this was the time frame arrangement under which he
undertook to fill the position created by the resignation of
Harry VK6YBZ. Harry resigned in late 2019 due to health issues.
Aidan VK4APM has indicated he is prepared to remain on the Board
until the delayed 2020 AGM.
The appointment of the new directors namely Phil VK2CPR, Lee VK3GK
and Oscar VK3TX, should they agree, may well be formalised shortly.
As previously advised through our National News service, the 2021
Conference will be held in Hobart Tasmania. Members who had already
booked flights or a Ferry ticket to Hobart will be pleased to note
that the date for the 2021 Conference will be inside of the 365 days
allowed by airlines to defer flights. However, selecting a date to be
well clear of school holidays, public holidays and other major events
in Tasmania has been a challenge.
I have received may requests from members for an indication of the
dates for the Hobart Conference and AGM in 2021. I am pleased to
confirm that these will be announced very shortly.
Stay safe in this time of crisis and remember #2MetresMatters
Peter VK8ZZ (Secretary),
EDUCATION
RSGB introducing remote invigilation for Foundation exams
Foundation Amateur Radio exams in the UK will be able to resume by
using remote invigilation, the Practical Assessments will be waived
Due to the Coronavirus outbreak amateur radio exams in the UK ceased
in mid-March, the new online system enables them to restart.
Candidates will take the Foundation exam in their own home on their
PC or Laptop (Windows 7+) or Apple Mac running Mac OS 10.8+.
The invigilation is done remotely, there is no need to complete the
Practical Assessments.
The RSGB says in due course they will consider extending it to the
other licence levels.
rsgb.org/main/blog/news/rsgb-notices/2020/04/02/rsgb-to-introduce-remote-invigilation-for-foundation-exams/
Now with more on Exams, and his discussion point here is
Geoff Emery, VK4ZPP, and He's been thinking.
Now if you are looking to sit an amateur radio assessment under
the new pandemic restrictions, the Australian Maritime College
has released the details for remote supervision. At the moment, you
must be at least 18 years old and have photographic ID. To see the
whole details go to the AMC website and look under amateur radio.
In the past year, the meeting app, ZOOM, has gained popularity in
allowing several people to take part in on-line meetings. It has
been shown that ZOOM is an efficient tool with the usual caveat
that the internet speed must be adequate. Lots of radio clubs have
started replacing the now banned face to face meetings with the
convenience of cyber technology. Last week numerous reports were
published showing that ZOOM meeting videos could be video bombed or
saved and posted to other sites. In other words, there are possible
serious security issues for users who do not follow the security
instructions that come with the app.
The ZOOM publishers have issued updates and it is an easy matter to
now establish password access to a meeting. As our need to remain
isolated is going to remain for the next few months, at least,
it makes a lot of sense to ensure we can enjoy the best means of
contact for social events whilst keeping the content private.
For once in our lives it is important to read the instructions.
Whilst COVID-19 casts a wide shadow over the world, the reports are
that more stations are appearing on the bands. This is good for the
hobby and if we maintain the usual courtesy in our on air activities
we can be assured we all enjoy a pastime like no other.
I'm Geoff Emery, VK4ZPP, and that's what I think....how about you?
How are You going?

INTERNATIONAL NEWS With thanks to IARU, RSGB, SARL, Southgate AR Club,
ARRL, RAC, NZART AMATEUR RADIO NEWSLINE & the World Wide sources of
MARKING WORLD AMATEUR RADIO DAY, EVEN WITHOUT HF
Now more than ever it's important to celebrate amateur radio.
Stephen Kinford N8WB shares two ways to do it even if you don't
have access to HF.
"Get ready for World Amateur Radio Day, which marks the 95th year
since the founding of the International Amateur Radio Union. There
will be plenty of action for hams who use EchoLink or IRLP as their
main modes. This year is the fifth year an international group of hams
will be operating in a 12-hour net taking place on the EchoLink/VOIP
system starting at 1600 UTC on April 18th on the DoDropIn Conference
Server, Node 355800. The special event coordinator John DeRycke W2JLD
said there will be a special event QSL card along with a certificate
marking the net's fifth year of operation. 9 control operators around
the world will be helping make this happen.
Elsewhere, be listening for the special event call W7W on the World
conference server IRLP 9251. Tom Harrington AF7J told NewsLine in an
email that hams will be calling QRZ starting at 1600 UTC. Check-ins
will also be possible on IRLP Node 9109 or Allstar 43609 and through
repeaters linked to those nodes. Commemorative certificates can be
emailed upon request. Paper QSLs can be requested through AA7WB
along with a stamped, self-addressed envelope."
IARU
COVID-19 special initiatives
IARU Region 1 have started a page providing details of special
Amateur Radio initiatives taking place in Europe, Africa and the
Middle East during the Coronavirus outbreak
Don Beattie G3BJ writes
"Member societies are starting to create new initiatives to provide
interest for radio amateurs who are required to stay at home as
part of social distancing policies. IARU Region 1 will publicise
those which may be of general interest to amateurs across Region 1
countries."

JAPAN
Yoshi, JG7AMD, reports that Japanâ€âä¢s Ministry of Internal Affairs and
Communications is about to expand access to 160 meters for radio
amateurs and permit SSB on that band. The current 160-meter band in
Japan consists of 1810 – 1825 kHz (CW) plus 1907.5 – 1912.5 for CW
and data.
Japan will allocate 1800 - 1810 kHz and 1825 - 1875 kHz for all
amateur radio modes. The effective date has not yet been announced.
SAUDI ARABIA
The Saudi Amateur Radio Society has announced that the communications
regulator CITC has agreed radio amateurs can use 50-54 MHz
The first contacts on the band took place on Thursday, April 2.
Amateurs in Saudi Arabia are limited to 50 watts on frequencies
above 30 MHz

THE APRIL 2020 RADIO ZS AVAILABLE TO ALL
The SARL Council has decided that the April 2020 issue of Radio ZS
is available for members and not yet members of the SARL. Click on
the link on the front page of the League website to download a copy.
The world is in lockdown and slowly going mad. A jailbreak seems like
a good idea and as radio amateurs we have an advantage – a creative
imagination and a willingness to tinker!
Let us pretend a little!. We are under house arrest; our homes being
monitored by a remote electronic surveillance system and the access
control governed by electronic key codes! We can only escape by
working together. Once you read this, you will be on the inside track
to freedom, we once took for granted! SARAH is our inside agent and
she will be giving out electronic key codes. A key code is simply a
4-letter combination and it will allow you to disable the
surveillance remotely.

Register and then find out more about the Lockdown Jailbreak!
There is also a PDF document telling you about this activity at

DUE DATE FOR THE RENEWAL OF ZS SPECTRUM LICENCES EXTENDED
Given the state of national disaster and the current 21-day lockdown
to curb the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, ICASA has decided to
extend the validity period of existing radio frequency spectrum
licences.
In terms of the Regulations, the due date for the renewal of radio
frequency spectrum licences is 31 March annually.
The Regulations further provide that failure to pay the prescribed
licence renewal fee by 31 March annually, will cause the expiry of
the licence immediately on the next calendar day that marks the
beginning of the new financial year.
ICASA has resolved to grant all radio frequency spectrum licence
holders an extension to renew their licences by no later than the
30th of June 2020.

This is Andrew VK1DA with news about the QRP Hours contest.
QRP Hours contest 18th April
The VK QRP Club is again running its QRP HOURS contest on 80m,
commencing at 10h UTC on 18th April.
This contest is a short one. Just one hour on one mode, followed by
one hour on another mode.
This year, with the recent relaxation of digital mode rules for
Foundation licensees, we have allowed contestants to use either CW
or their digital mode of choice during the first hour of the contest.
And in the second hour, the most popular mode is probably SSB but
entries using digital voice modes are also invited.
The full rules can be found at the vk qrp club's website, on
vkqrpclub.org
Just find the contests link in the menu on the top of the home page.
The rules fit on one page.
There will be further reminders on the popular mailing list VKZLQRP
at groups.io as well as on SOTA and Parks mailing lists.

ARRL report some countries around the world are allowing radio
amateur clubs and some hams to use special 'STAYHOME' call signs
suffixes
For example, listen for 8 A 1 STAYHOME from Indonesia
and A 60 STAYHOME/(your own call) from United Arab Emirates.
In Canada, Michael Shamash, VE2MXU, is using VC 2 STAYHOM
(Canada limits call sign suffixes to seven characters)
The RASA club, AX 2020 STAYHOME. At 14 characters, as reported
by ARRL this may just set a record for world's longest call sign.
Just at the time a 'push' is on to shorten VK's 4 letter F call to 3
letters.
9 K 9 STAYHOME from the Kuwait Amateur Radio Society;
TC 1 STAYHOME, the COVID-19 special event call sign from Turkey
and H Z1 STAYHOME from the Saudi Amateur Radio Society.

END OF ORBIT FOR VENEZUELAN TELECOMMUNICATIONS SATELLITE
Venezuela's first and only telecommunications satellite has
left its orbit.
Three years before it was supposed to die, Venezuelaâ€âä¢s sole
telecommunications satellite has fallen out of orbit and out of
service.
Launched in 2008 from Beijing, the Simon Bolivar Satellite was the
financially strapped nation's first satellite and was not supposed
to expire until 2023. It was providing internet services in
underserved rural areas and was also carrying state-run television
programming. At the time of its launch, the government viewed the
satellite as a major component in the nation's progress toward
improved scientific and technological independence.
Some experts theorized that the satellite's troubles developed as a
result of a fuel shortage for the manoeuvring jets.

144 MHz band opens up across the Atlantic again between Cape Verde
and the Caribbean.
In the Summer of 2019, there was a remarkable opening on 144 MHz
between Cape Verde Islands off the coast of Africa and the Caribbean
which lasted for several days.
This trans-Atlantic path opened again on 144 MHz on the evening of
Sunday the 5th of April 2020 when the FT8 signal from D4VHF in
Cape Verde was heard by FM4SA in Martinique, a distance of roughly
3,864kms.
This was followed by two successful FT8 contacts on Monday the 6th
of April from D41VHF to FM5CS in Martinique and 9Y4D in Trinidad.
