Students Questions:

2. Izzy (Yr 2): What are the challenges to growing food in space if astronauts are to stay in space for longer?
3. Emily (Yr 3): Does your digestion change because in space there is no gravity so your intestine will float in your body?

Op woensdag 19 juni om 8:49 UTC is weer een schoolcontact met David St-Jacques, KG5FYI, in het internationale ruimtestation ISS gepland. De school is dit keer in Tasmanië (Australië) gelegen en buiten ons bereik. Het contact is echter een telebridge verbinding die via het ARISS grondstation van IK1SLD in Italie loopt. Daardoor zal een groot deel van het contact ook hier in Nederland rechtstreeks te volgen zijn op 145,800 MHz in FM. Bijzonder is dat Claudio, IK1SLD, zijn activiteit en de audio van het contact rechtstreeks via internet doorgeeft. Het webadres hiervoor is www.ariotti.com.

ARISS – ISS schoolcontact for Tasmania web streamed
An International Space Station school contact has been planned for David St-Jacques KG5FYI with participants at King Island District High School, Currie, TAS, Australia.

School Information:
King Island District High School is located in the Bass Strait off the North West Coast of Tasmania. We cater for approximately 210 students from Kinder to Year 10. Our school is at the heart of our community, we value each student and their family. We have been striving to create resilient, innovative lifelong learners; our school has been on a learning journey with Literacy and Numeracy as our core fundamentals. Our students have the opportunities for on-island and off-island camps from Year 3 and up, we participate in sporting events in mainland Tasmania, we have students from Kinder to Year 10 being able to access specialist Music and Art lessons. We are grateful to have a well resourced MDT room, Computer Lab, kitchen which has then eventuated into a school café ‘The Rock Café’, which offers café style lunches, drinks and monthly dinners to our community giving our students first-hand experience of hospitality. We are also in the process of building our own golf hole to fit in with the islands golfing influx of late.

Hierbij nodig ik iedereen uit om deel te nemen aan de VERON 50 en 70MHz contest. De contest start op 2019-06-15 14:00 UTC en eindigt op 2019-06-16 14:00u. Gelijktijdig wordt in heel region 1 de IARU 50 en 70MHz gehouden. Dit staat garant voor voldoende activiteit.
Contestregels
Voor een verbinding dient uitgewisseld te worden de beide roepnamen, QTH locator van 6 tekens, RST rapport en een volgnr te beginnen met 001. De afstand in kilometers tussen de twee stations is het aantal behaalde punten voor een verbinding. Voor de einduitslag worden per deelnemer van alle verbindingen de kilometers opgeteld.
Deze contest is het eerste deel van de VERON 50/70MHz competitie. Deel twee van deze competitie wordt gehouden in het weekend van 2019-07-06.
Het volledige reglement van de contest staat hier. De regels van de IARU staan hier.
Deelname
Deelnemen kan eenvoudig door het EDI log in VHFREG1 formaat te uploaden naar de contestrobot. De contestrobot staat op deze website. De ontvangen logs worden door de nationale contestmanager doorgestuurd naar de IARU.
Digitale mode
Het is in de 50/70MHz contest toegestaan om verbindingen te maken in digitale mode zoals FT8, MSK144, JT6M etc. Er wordt geen verschil gemaakt met SSB/CW voor wat betreft de uit te wisselen gegevens. Dus ook in de digitale mode uitwisselen zoals bij SSB/CW: beiden roepnamen, QTH locator van 6 tekens, RST rapport en volgnummer. Deze verbindingen dienen in het EDI log te worden gekenmerkt met mode_code “7”.
Nu was deze eis vorig jaar niet de realiseren omdat de digitale modes door de beperkte bericht omvang daarvoor niet geschikt waren. Behalve bij meteorscatter modes zoals JT6M, FSK441 kon het wel. Echter sinds begin dit jaar hebben programma’s zoals WSJT-X of MSHV met het populaire FT8 wel deze mogelijkheid. We verwachten daardoor extra contestactiviteit.

Duitse stations mogen contesten op 6m
In Duitsland gelden er beperkingen om op 6m te mogen uitzenden. Een van de beperkingen was dat duitse statons niet mogen contesten op 6 m. Deze beperking is dit jaar opgeheven. In de frequentieband 50.08 – 51 MHz en in de periode mei tot september is het voor duitse stations nu toegestaan om mee te doen met contesten. Er zal dus verhoogde activiteit ten oosten van ons te verwachten zijn.
Ik wens iedereen heel veel contestplezier en hoop dat er heel veel E-skip propagatie zal zijn. Ik wil tevens iedereen oproepen om zijn log in te sturen, ook zijn het maar een paar verbindingen. Laat zien dat de 50 en 70 MHz band leeft.
