I posted a request in a recent blog looking for a volunteerr to host a
remote ham station that I could operate remotely from here in Thailand. I
was very pleased to receive two responses, one is conveniently located in
the Toronto area and the other is further afield. The Toronto location is
more appealing because the owner is there every day. The other location is
at a friend's summer cottage, which remains unoccupied for months at a time.
I'm thinking of building a circularly polarized crossed Moxon array as
described in this article:
[Link to Moxon Article]
Any thoughts? Has anybody built and used one of these systems? *[By the
way, please spare me the stern admonishments about what a compromise
antenna/dummy load this is. **I'm well aware of the limitations. **I
don't have the money for yagis and rotators, including yagis at fixed
elevations and I also don't want the complexity. OK? 'Nuff said.]*
I'm in the market for a used Icom IC-910H if anyone has one in good
condition for sale. The 1.2 GHz adapter would be nice but is not
critical. What is critical is that the radio is 100% functional.
Other transceiver options...maybe an FT-818 or IC-7100 with a separate SDR
receiver. I'd be happy with an 818 but the 7100 offers more horsepower to
overcome transmission line loss and the shortcomings of the antenna system.
I've been keeping my eye on the new RigPi device [https://rigpi.net/] for
interfacing to the internet. I like what I see, but the documentation
seems to be lagging, so I'll wait a little.
Any comments or suggestions are most welcome, and if you do have a 910H in
good condition for sale please let me know. It'll be nice to work
satellites again!

of Technology (TEC), Los Suenos, Costa Rica
Message-ID: <A29112CD32AE4694BBC0C77B63BC4DB1@???>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"
An International Space Station school contact has been planned with
participants at Costa Rica Institute of Technology (TEC), Los Suenos, Costa
Rica on 27 May. The event is scheduled to begin at approximately 16:31 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.
There are two locations connected. Both belong to the Costa Rica Institute
of Technology (TEC). San Carlos is located on the most-north Costarrican
?rea. Although is recognized as a rural area, that has developed an
agricultural production during the last 80 years, now is booming with
technology-based companies, receiving the nickname "Costa Rica's Silicon
Valley" to San Carlos. In Cartago, the Central location of TEC, the activity
is organized by TECSpace, the space engineering student group of the
university, with more than 100 members, and the Space Systems Engineering
Laboratory (SETEC Lab) who was in charge of the design of the first
satellite of Central America, launched in 2018.
Participants will ask as many of the following questions as time allows:
1. What sentiments and feelings did you have when seeing space for the first
time?
2. A journey to Mars will have to deal with multiple gravity transitions. Are
there any projects of experiments that were proposed for this matter by
space agencies?
3. How do you think the astronaut business will change with the advent of
self-funded private human spaceflight?
4. Given your background as a physician, what areas of medicine do you think
will be key to innovate and research to successfully undertake long term
deep space missions?
5. What advice would you give to young students interested on being an
astronaut or being involved in human spaceflight?
6. How will the space station influence the future plans for reaching the
moon in 2024?
7. How much time did it take you to learn to fly a jet and what did you enjoy
the most about that experience?
8. What challenging experiences did you have to face in order to become an
astronaut?
9. Given your extremely great time management skills for being able to
accomplish your 3 majors, and such other studies. What advice could you
give other people about time management skills?
10. Of the experiments that you are working on right now on the ISS, what is
your favorite? And what's it about?
11. Will your research on long distance medicine have an impact on medical
services provided to remote communities, like Canada's Inuit people?
12. Now that you have experienced living in space for several months, what
are two things you would recommend space ships have incorporated in their
design for long term space voyages?
13. Will you please come and visit us at TEC when you and your family are on
your next trip to Costa Rica?

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 ISS National Lab 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 public forms. Before
and during these radio contacts, students, educators, parents, and
communities learn about space, space technologies, and amateur radio. For
more information, see www.ariss.org.

Subject: [amsat-bb] Upcoming ARISS contact for Mildred Hall School,
Yellowknife, NT, Canada
Message-ID: <ED4796CDCA5F4C91A571BC4202189538@???>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"
An International Space Station school contact has been planned with
participants at Mildred Hall School, Yellowknife, NT, Canada
on 27 May. The event is scheduled to begin at approximately 19:44 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 ON4ISS. The contact
should be audible over Belgium 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.
Mildred Hall, a Junior Kindergarten to Grade 8 School, is located in the
heart of downtown Yellowknife with Frame Lake and its beautiful trail almost
sitting in its backyard. It houses 271 students from the ages of 4 to 14
with very diverse backgrounds and cultures. Almost 80% of the students are
Indigenous, so it boasts programming that is relevant to hands-on learning,
science inquiry, outdoor experiential opportunities and the instruction of
English, French and Dogrib. Our basic beliefs revolve around the acronym
SOAR- Share what you have (S), Ownership (O), Achieve your very best (A) and
Respect everyone and everything around you. (R).
Participants will ask as many of the following questions as time allows:
1. Why is space travel so important to astronauts and other humans?
2. I saw a picture you took of the northern lights and we have a lot of them
over here in Yellowknife. Are you able to fly through the northern
lights?
3. How do you see the sun from where you are? Is there a sunrise or sunset?
Is it different to how we see it on earth?
4. How long are you there and how long can a person stay in space? Does it
affect your body in anyway, causing irreversible consequences?
5. Do you constantly work up there? Do you do anything for fun? If
so,what?
6. What is your favorite thing about being in space?
7. What is the most challenging thing about being in space?
8. Does your hair and nails grow at the same rate in space? Is there
anything different about the way they grow?
9. If there is an emergency on the space station and you have to escape, is
there an emergency pod? If not what happens?
10. What is gravitational time dilation?
11. How do you keep time in space? Are you in a time zone?
12. Do you think humans will ever live on another planet?
13. What were you thinking when you blasted off?
14. What is the strangest thing you have ever seen or experienced in space?
15. Is it as silent as movies show? Why?
16. What do you miss the most while you are there?

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 ISS National Lab 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 public forms. Before
and during these radio contacts, students, educators, parents, and
communities learn about space, space technologies, and amateur radio. For
more information, see www.ariss.org.
Thank you & 73,
