MARCH ONE - DECDEMBER THIRTY ONE
First off is VK90AR which is for celebrating 90 years of the Wireless Institute of Australias official journal, Amateur radio magazine, which celebrates its 90th year anniversary in October later this year. An excellent article on the birth of Amateur Radio magazine can be read in the January 2023 edition of AR magazine, page 12 written by WIA Historian, Peter Wolfenden VK3RV.
APRIL ONE - DECEMBER THIRTY ONE
VK100ZL to celebrate the Centenary of the First Tran-Tasman Radio contact between Australia and New Zealand.
On April 26th this year, it will be 100 years since the first amateur radio contact between New Zealand and Australia was made, between Frank Bell of Shag Valley Station, Waihemo in Otago and Charles Maclurcan, 2CM in Sydney. Several significant events illustrate the close ties WIA and NZART have between our two societies
1929 WIA supported NZARTs application to join the IARU
1938 WIA sponsored NZART President Pete Petrie ZL2OV to a Pre-WARC conference in Sydney
1968 Tom Clarkson ZL2AZ and Harry Burton ZL2APC attended the Sydney WIA Convention as guests of WIA
1968 At the subsequent inaugural meeting of the IARU Region 3 Conference organised by WIA, the nomination of Tom Clarkson ZL2AZ as an inaugural director was supported by the WIA
1969 Michael Owen VK3KI attended NZART Conference in Gisborne. The WIA and NZART alternated in attending and contributing to each others conferences over the next two decades. The collaboration between our two societies in preparing for and negotiating at the various WARCs and WRCs is also testament to the strong relationship.
MAY ONE - THITY ONE
VI2023HRH celebrating the Coronation of His Royal Highness King Charles III
VI2023HRH will be active from the 1st to the 31st of May 2023 celebrating the coronation of King Charles III which will be held on May 6th. Charles III is King of the United Kingdom and the 14 other Commonwealth realms. He was the longest-serving heir apparent and Prince of Wales, and at the age of 73, became the oldest person to accede to the British throne, upon the death of his mother, Elizabeth II, on 8 September 2022

News in from Delegate Dale Hughes VK1DSH
The Second Conference Preparatory Meeting (CPM23-2) for WRC-23 is underway in Geneva, Switzerland. CPM23-2 is an important step on work towards WRC-23 which will be held in Dubai later this year.
The purpose of CPM23-2 is to refine the texts and regulatory proposals that will be the basis of discussion and decisions at WRC-23.
There are several WRC-23 Agenda Items of concern to amateurs and the IARU and various national amateur radio societies have delegates present at CPM23-2 to express the view of the amateurs at the meeting.
Arguably, the main issue for amateurs is agenda item 9.1b which concerns our 23 cm band.
The operative part of WRC-19 Resolution 774 states:
to perform a detailed review of the different systems and applications used in the amateur service and amateur-satellite service allocations in the frequency band 1 240-1 300 MHz;
taking into account the results of the above review, to study possible technical and operational measures to ensure the protection of RNSS (space-to-Earth) receivers from the amateur and amateur-satellite services in the frequency band 1 240-1 300 MHz, without considering the removal of these amateur and amateur-satellite service allocations
The review and studies mentioned above are almost complete and are expected to be finalized before WRC-23 and a summary of the studies has been developed and approved by the CPM23-2 meeting for use at WRC-23.
The results of the studies and the WRC-23 decision will provide national administrations (like the ACMA in Australia) with guidance that will assist them to protect the radio navigation satellite service (RNSS, mainly Galileo in Australia) while still allowing reasonable access to the 23 cm band for amateur activities. The measures to protect RNSS receivers are likely to include operation in recommended band segments, emission bandwidth and power limitations. The guidance has been designed to protect the RNSS receivers while still permitting typical amateur usage of the band with as little change from existing operation as possible.
Other WRC-23 issues of interest to amateurs are possible new allocations for other services in bands already occupied by the amateur and other services, or bands adjacent to amateur bands.
While the final decisions about any changes to the Radio Regulations will be made at WRC-23, attendance at CPM23-2 is important to because it means that our concerns over interference are made known and we can have some input into the documents that will go forward to WRC-23.
Thats all for this week, for now, 73 From Lee VK3GK

REGION ONE
From South Africa comes news of a remarkable achievement
SOUTH AFRICANS WORK 200TH COUNTRY ON 50 MHZ
Paul Smit, ZS6NK and Bernie van der Walt, ZS4TX worked Mali, Angola,
Guadeloupe and Bonaire to push the total over 200.
Considering that the first South African DXCC award for contacting
100 countries on this band was issued only in 1998 and that by 2015
only four South Africans had reached that mark, it was then almost
unthinkable that over 200 countries would be worked on this VHF
band.
During March, equinox propagation and high solar activity allowed
these four new DXCC entities to appear in South African 50 MHz logs
for the first time.
All four contacts were made using the mode WSJT.
Don't you just LOVE conspiracy theories?
Hackaday are reporting on a new mystery Russian Short Wave Station.
UVB-76 or UZB-76, has been a constant companion to anyone with a
shortwave radio tuned to 4625 kHz. However, seems that there is now
a second buzzer operating close to the original frequency. Of
course we ask the question is why?
The buzzing isnt quite nonstop. There are occasional voice
messages, but maybe the buzzing is just to keep the frequency clear
in case it is needed. However, we wonder if it isnt something else.
Compressed data would sound like this noise. Other theories are
that the buzzing studies the ionosphere or that it is part of a
doomsday system that would launch nuclear missiles. Given that the
signal has broken down numerous times, this doesnt seem likely.
Whatever the case, is another strange signal to go in the SWL's log.

REGION TWO
For Hybrid Radio, It's NOT all about the bass -
Its All About the Metadata
Although there is a major push to ensure AM radio is kept on the
dashboard of new generation motor vehicles at the just held NAB
show it was the features of Hybrid Radio enthralling consumers.
The hybrid radio system most familiar to U.S. drivers is
DTS AutoStage, which for many is still a new concept. But there
are other platforms in vehicles.
Radioworld.com are reporting on how the first hybrid radio platform
available in the U.S. came from Audi in 2020, and supports enhanced
station lists and service following, whereby a stations over the
air signal is replaced by a streaming audio version of the signal as
the vehicle leaves a stations RF coverage area. Stations make use
of RadioDNS service information (SI) files to support these
features.
DTS AutoStage arrived in 2021 in Mercedes S-Class luxury vehicles,
and in 2022 in a number of Hyundai, Kia and Genesis models. Some BMW
vehicles also have a limited hybrid functionality, also supported by
broadcasters with RadioDNS SI files.
As a footnote, Ford in the USA have announced they will NOT be
installing AM in any future vehicles, be they Electric OR
gas (petroleum) models
Dayton Hamvention 2023, scheduled for May 19 - 21 and preparations
are moving forward for the big event.
Hamvention, which is amateur radio's largest annual convention, is
held at the Greene County Fairgrounds and Expo Centre in Xenia,
Ohio.
With nearly 700 volunteers, this year's Hamvention will boast more
than 500 indoor exhibits and more than 2,500 outdoor exhibits. The
event showcases the latest in amateur radio equipment, technology,
and computer software and hardware, along with hard-to-find radio
and computer accessories and equipment.

The ARRLs 2023 Field Day will be held June 24 - 25.
This is the USA's Ham Radio open house.
Every June, hams throughout North America set up temporary TX
stations in public places to demonstrate ham radio's science,
skill and service to communities and the nation. It combines
public service, emergency preparedness, community outreach, and
technical skills all in a single event.
Unlike our own Field Day, which Silent Key, and past WIA Secretary
Jim Linton set up for a few years, this one has been an annual event
since 1933 and remains the most popular event in US ham radio.
Last year just a few dozen less than 5,000 entries were submitted
and there was a total of 29,679 reported participants.
REGION THREE
ITU OPENS AREA OFFICE IN NEW DELHI
Jim Meachen Editor of the NZART Audio News Service and like a few us
here also reports back to Amateur Radio NewsLine joins us.
Congratulations to the International Telecommunications Union which has opened an area office and innovation centre in New Delhi, India. According to a report on the OSCAR India channel on YouTube, the ITU's presence in the Asia Pacific region is intended to help advance technology and improve innovation in India and across south Asia. The ITU is the specialized agency of the United Nations, dealing with information and communications technologies. The ITU's secretary-general, Doreen Bogdan-Martin, KD2JTX, was present at the opening in March.

JUST REPEATING - yes it's a bit of repeater news to wrap up
my segment this week.
The 146.9 VK2RKG repeater at Bathurst is back on air at its new
location and is intended as a fill-in repeater, to cover the holes
in the Bathurst township that VK2RCW doesnt see due to a big hill
in the way.
VK2RKG is on 146.9MHz with the stock standard negative 600kHz offset
and no tone required for access.
It is experimentally linked to VK2RCW at Gowan.

WIRELESS WEATHER
GETTING TO THE HEART OF THE SUN
Scientists have found the source of a mysterious radio signal from
the sun that sounds curiously like a heartbeat. Kent Peterson KCDGY
from Amateur Radio NewsLine takes the pulse of this remarkable
research.
When a recent C-class solar flare more than 5,000 kilometres above the sun sent out a radio signal in a heartbeat-like pattern, scientists began work to unlock the reason behind it. The international team went in search of the origin of this pattern, known as a quasi-periodic pulsation, or QPP.
Studying observations captured in 2017 by a radio telescope in California that detects microwave frequencies, the researchers began studying a heartbeat-like pattern that repeated every 10 to 20 seconds. Then they unearthed something unexpected: a secondary signal, which was weaker and could be discerned every 30 to 60 seconds.
According to their recently published study, they have been able to determine that the so-called heartbeats are triggered by disruptions known as "magnetic islands" which form in sheets of rapidly moving plasma from the sun.
At the heart of the matter is what this research may ultimately reveal: Writing in the journal Nature Communications, one researcher said the answer was key to a fuller understanding of the scope of the damage that solar storms can do when their energy is released.
This is Kent Peterson KCDGY.

The combination of Cape Canaveral Space Force Station and NASAs
Kennedy Space Centre hosted 57 launches in 2022, more than any other
launch range in the world.
For now, the level of launch activity at the Cape is manageable.
But, warning signs are emerging. One is that the Cape is effectively
full and the infrastructure to support those launch sites, such as
power, commodities and roads, is aging.

Launch company Virgin Orbit filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy April 4,
having failed to achieve financial orbit after burning through more
than $1 billion, so, there will be no more satellite launch plans
for Virgin Orbit and Amateur Radio NewsLines Neil Rapp WB9VPG is
here with more.
Virgin Orbit has shut the doors of its satellite-launch operations,
laying off 675 workers after six years in business. The company said
in a filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission that its
inability to secure sufficient funds has made it unable to continue
operating.
Created as a subsidiary of Virgin Galactic, Virgin Orbit's mission
was to launch CubeSats into low earth orbit from beneath a
commercial airliner that had been modified to accommodate its
proprietary satellite launch system. The company did not have a
history of great success with the system, known as LauncherOne.
Virgin Orbit's most recent failure was its attempt to launch a
rocket from Cornwall in the UK. The company CEO later said that
the problem may have been caused by a $100 part that may have
become dislodged in the second-stage engine. The launch had been a
much-anticipated event for Spaceport Cornwall, which has been
competing for the UK to enter the global space market by becoming a
home to satellite launches.
This is Neil Rapp WB9VPG.

Longwave 252
In Ireland the 252 kHz signal which carries the RTE Radio 1 program
to listeners across the UK and other parts of Europe that cannot
access an FM service will end next Friday the 14th of April.
The broadcaster claims the decision to take a core service to the
public off air is based on the need to reduce their electricity
bill, citing the climate crisis, public expenditure efficiency, and
the need to reduce the burden on the national grid.
The phasing out and closure of the Long Wave service was one of the
recommendations of the "Future of Media Commission" report which was
published by the Government in July 2022, but not after spending
significant amounts of money for an overhaul of the antenna system
in 2019.
The Algerian broadcasters who recently increased their output power
on 252 kHz will no doubt be delighted to finally get rid of the
co-channel interference by the already diminished signal from
Ireland.

VK3 - APRIL 21 in BENDIGO
Hi, I'm Graeme VK3GRK and Bendigo Amateur Radio & Electronics Club
invites you to our April meeting -
'Presents fall from the sky - daily'.
Twice a day, the Bureau of Meteorology launch a radiosonde from the
Melbourne airport, comprising of a balloon with an instrument
package. Most of these measure temperature and humidity. Some
measure air pressure. The occasional one measures ozone
concentration as well. All carry a GPS receiver, a 400MHz FSK 60 mW
transmitter and a microprocessor. These sondes can be reprogrammed
to transmit in the 432MHz amateur band, and they can be used for
APRS tracking or as beacons for fox hunting.
Most sondes drift eastward after launch, reaching an altitude of
20+ Km and travelling up to 250km. Several times a year they head
towards Bendigo.
It's fun to try to recover them, a bit like a fox-hunt with a
"valuable" prize to take home.
BAREC member, Phil VK3BHR, will provide an interesting presentation
on the subject, with a demonstration of the receiving and antenna
equipment used to track these devices.
So it's up up and away at 7.30 pm, Friday April 21st at BAREC
Headquarters, Bendigo East Hall, 35 Lansell St. A gold coin
donation would be appreciated, and a light supper will be provided.
The presentation will be live streamed and available for later
viewing on the BAREC YouTube channel.
