AMSAT News Service Bulletin 176.02 From AMSAT HQ
SILVER SPRING, MD. June 20, 2004
To All RADIO AMATEURS
BID: $ANS-176.02
AMSAT filed comments with the FCC on 15 June 2004 on the so-called
"omnibus" Notice of Proposed Rule Making and Order, WT Docket 04-140. Dr.
Perry I. Klein, W3PK, AMSAT Vice President, Government Liaison says, "this
filing covers a wide range of issues and is very important to the future of
satellites in the amateur radio service."
Topics covered in the filing include auxiliary station and spread spectrum
operations in the 2M band, retransmission of audio from manned spaceflight
missions, reducing the number and lead-time required for written pre-space
station notifications and the licensing of amateur space stations.

Perry noted that among the many people who contributed to getting these
comments filed in a timely manner, the special efforts of Ray Soifer, W2RS
and inputs from Bill Tynan, W3XO were greatly appreciated.
