AMSAT News Service Bulletin 124.11 From AMSAT HQ
Silver Spring, MD. May 4, 2003
To All Radio Amateurs
BID: $ANS-124.11
Upcoming ARISS Contact Schedule as of 2003-04-30 04:00 UTC
The ARISS (a joint effort of AMSAT, the ARRL, NASA, the ARISS internation=
al
partners including Canada, Russia, the European Partners, and Japan)
operations
team wishes to announce the following very tentative schedule for ARISS
school
contacts. This schedule is very fluid and may change at the last minute.
Remember that amateur radio use on the ISS is considered secondary. Plea=
se
check the various AMSAT and ARISS webpages for the latest announcements.
Changes from the last announcement are noted with (***). Also, please ch=
eck
MSNBC.com for possible live retransmissions
(http://www.msnbc.com/m/lv/default.asp). Listen for the ISS on the downl=
ink
of
145.80 MHz.
For information about educational materials available from ISS partner sp=
ace
Agencies, please refer to links on the ARISS Frequently Asked Questions
page.
If you are interested in supporting an ARISS contact, then you must fill
in an application. The ARISS operations mentor team will not accept a
direct request to support an ARISS contact.
You should also note that many schools think that they can request a
specific date and time. It does not work that way. Once an application
has been accepted, the ARISS mentors will work with the school to
determine a mutually agreeable date.
