Open Research Institute is looking to apply as a mentor in the Google
Summer of Code program. I believe participation can greatly benefit the
amateur satellite service. Special thanks to Wally Ritchie for suggesting
this path, and to Bruce Perens and Ben Hilburn for their support and
approval.
Details about the program can be found here:
https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/
If approved, it would mean we would mentor student(s), at least once a
week, coordinating efforts to produce engineering in support of achieving
technical goals.
This is a significant time commitment, but we have plenty of really
interesting and meaningful options for students to work on.
In order to apply, we need volunteers that can commit to working with
students. As of today, we have four enthusiastic volunteers that cover a
wide variety of technical fields. We are looking for more. AMSAT-BB is full
of truly wonderful and qualified people.
The deadline is 5 February 2020. If you can help with this, let us know!

Amateur Radio on the International Space Station
Contact Opportunity
Call for Proposals
Upcoming Proposal Window is February 1, 2020 to March 31, 2020
The Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) Program is
seeking formal and informal education institutions and organizations,
individually or working together, to host an Amateur Radio contact with a
crew member on board the ISS. ARISS is happy to announce a proposal window
which will open February 1, 2020 for contacts that would be held between
January 2021 and June 2021. Crew scheduling and ISS orbits will determine
the exact contact dates. To maximize these radio contact opportunities,
ARISS is looking for organizations that will draw large numbers of
participants and integrate the contact into a well-developed education plan.
The proposal window for contacts between January 2021. and June 2021 will
open on February 1, 2020 and close on March 31. 2020. Proposal information
and documents can be found at www.ariss.org. Two ARISS Introductory Webinar
sessions will be held on two different date and times. The first is at
January 23 at 2100 ET and the second is at Jan 27 at 1800 ET. The same
material will be covered during both sessions, so choose the session that
best fits your schedule. The Eventbrite link to sign up is
https://ariss-proposal-webinar-spring-2020.eventbrite.com .
The Opportunity
Crew members aboard the International Space Station will participate in
scheduled Amateur Radio contacts. These radio contacts are approximately 10
minutes in length and allow students to interact with the astronauts through
a question-and-answer session.
An ARISS contact is a voice-only communication opportunity via Amateur Radio
between astronauts and cosmonauts aboard the space station and classrooms
and communities. ARISS contacts afford education audiences the opportunity
to learn firsthand from astronauts what it is like to live and work in space
and to learn about space research conducted on the ISS. Students also will
have an opportunity to learn about satellite communication, wireless
technology, and radio science. Because of the nature of human spaceflight
and the complexity of scheduling activities aboard the ISS, organizations
must demonstrate flexibility to accommodate changes in dates and times of
the radio contact.
Amateur Radio organizations around the world with the support of NASA and
space agencies in Russia, Canada, Japan and Europe present educational
organizations with this opportunity. The ham radio organizations' volunteer
efforts provide the equipment and operational support to enable
communication between crew on the ISS and students around the world using
Amateur Radio.
More Information
For proposal information and more details such as expectations, proposal
guidelines and proposal form, and dates and times of Information Webinars,
go to www.ariss.org.
Please direct any questions to ariss.us.education@?????.??? .
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 (STEAM)
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.

On Feb-22-1990 LUSAT/LO-19 was launched along with AO-16, DO-17, WO-18,
UO-14 & UO-15.
It's our first Argentina Satellite, and one of firsts to use PACSAT protocol.
LUSAT is still calling home with her carrier at +/-437.125 saying hey! I am
here, http://amsat.org.ar/pass?satx=lusat
AMSAT-LU invites to share & celebrate this 30th anniversary, due Jan-22 2020.
>From Jan 18 thru 26 several Club Stations and amateurs will be active by

While I applaud your efforts, exactly how is this relevant to amateur
satellites and being sent to the AMSAT-BB?
Last time I checked we were AMSAT not ORI?
Was spamming the physical mailing list with ORI letter headed "propaganda"
not enough? Certainly, you have other means of publicizing, rather than
spamming us on the AMSAT-BB and violating the terms of use For someone who
throws a lot of unfounded accusations at others, you seem to do a lot of
shady stuff. I thought a Board member would know better.

Congratulations on your anniversary and successful satellite! UO-14 was
the very first satellite I made a QSO through, back in 2002. That was a
great sat, unfortunately we lost it a couple of years after that. Never
would have guessed that UO-14 would lead me into 18 years of satellite
operating with a satellite VUCC and satellite WAS!

Hello John,
Thanks for your comment on amsat-bb, and congratulations on your VUCC & WAS
at those early times.
We are very proud to participate with LUSAT, driven during the 80's and 90's
by W3GEY, Jan King, dealing us into that adventure.
Looking forward to keep the excitement of those times.

Thanks Michelle,
What a great opportunity for amateur radio folks to make a real difference
in young people and introduce them to our part of the hobby that involves
coding, SDR, etc. Thanks for doing this and making us aware of these
opportunities. That's right in line with "services that present an
opportunity for self-training, intercommunication, and technical
investigations a foundation of amateur radio" plus all the STEM that comes
with it. Very nice and since it is open, it is accessible.
As with all great ideas, you will unfortunately be confronted with personal
attacks and unfounded accusations. Glad you are sticking with it!

Wow! The AMSAT ambassador program clearly needs a course in people skills.
Who manages that program? I love supporting AMSAT ( I?m a life member) but
that can?t stand. To turn a phrase, I would think an AMSAT Ambassador would
know better.
Keep at it Michelle. That?s a great idea.
