 REGION ONE 

 Algerian broadcaster causing interference to radio amateurs

 DARC report the broadcast station Tldiffusion d'Algerie has been
 causing interference to the 21 MHz primary amateur radio band
 at 21450 kHz with the lower sideband of its A3E signal in the 15 m
 band. Bandwatch has already involved the German Federal Network
 Agency (BNetzA) in order to effect a frequency change.

 Tldiffusion d'Algerie recently attracted negative attention with
 its broadcasts on 7200 kHz. There, too, the transmitter radiates
 into an exclusive amateur radio band with the lower sideband.

 Physicists in Europe say they have found a key to creating smaller
 capacitors, allowing for some electronic devices to be greatly 
 miniaturized.

 The IEEE Spectrum reports that scientists are saying these capacitors
 could even be as small as one-hundredth the size of many of the ones
 presently in use. They are creating them with materials they call
 superlattices and they are made from materials that mimic
 antiferroelectrics. Antiferroelectrics are important because they
 have positive and negative poles -- electric dipoles -- pointed in
 opposing directions, creating zero electric polarization. Exposed to
 an electric field having sufficient strength, antiferroelectrics can
 become highly polarized, which results in the large energy densities
 needed.

 Because there are few antiferrelectric materials that occur naturally,
 scientists have created and used artificial ones and report in the
 Journal, Science, that their work with the superlattices shows
 promise for working on a much smaller scale: their ability for
 energy storing is 100 times greater than conventional capacitors.




 Younger adults now watch almost seven times less scheduled TV within
 the UK than those aged 65 and over, Ofcom has found, as the
 generation gap in media habits reaches a record high.

 People aged 16-24 spend 53 minutes in front of broadcast TV in an
 average day  a fall of two-thirds in the last ten years.

 In contrast, those aged 65 and over still spend around a third of
 their waking day enjoying broadcast TV, sitting down for almost six
 hours daily.



 DJIBOUTI, J2 has a new club station located in a US Army military
 camp. 

 Djibouti is a country in the Horn of Africa, bordered by Somalia to
 the south, Ethiopia to the southwest and the Red Sea and the Gulf of
 Aden to the east. It is near some of the world's busiest shipping
 lanes, controlling access to the Red Sea and Indian Ocean.
 It serves as a key refuelling and transshipment center, and the
 principal maritime port for imports from and exports to neighboring
 Ethiopia.

 A burgeoning commercial hub, the nation is the site of various
 foreign military bases and now you can work one, J 2 8RC is a new
 club station located in a US Army military camp.

 REGION TWO

 Brazilian radio show features amateur radio

 LABRE was invited to talk about amateur radio and DXing in one of
 the programs of the series 'One Hundred Years in 100 Programs' and
 which celebrates the 100 years of radio in Brazil  

 Brazil's national amateur radio society LABRE says the production is
 from Radio MEC, based in Rio de Janeiro, the first broadcasting
 station to officially operate in Brazilian territory.

 The program had the testimony of LABRE's Communication Advisory and
 also colleague Ricardo Benedito, PY2QB, who also gave his
 contribution within the theme amateur radio and DXing.

 Ham radio operators honored in Tennessee

 County leaders Lt. Gov. Randy McNally and state Rep. John Ragan,
 both Oak Ridge Republicans, attended the Anderson County Commission
 meeting recently to present Senate Joint Resolution No. 1646,
 honoring amateur radio operators and their service across the state.

 Anderson County leaders joined the legislators in recognizing the
 service of a number of local residents who are licensed amateur
 radio operators and members of the Amateur Radio Emergency Service
 (ARES), according to a county government news release.

 The states resolution recognizes the 19,835 licensed amateur radio
 operators who embody the historic spirit of the Volunteer State 
 and provide invaluable services to their fellow citizens and local
 first responders during emergencies and natural disasters.

 WIA VHF - UHF FIELD DAYS
 SPRING

 This is Roger Harrison VK2ZRH, manager for the VHF-UHF Field Days.

 For all contestants who submitted logs for the past three Field Days
  that is, the Spring 2021, Summer and Winter 2022 events  I have
 good news. Firstly, all the log files sent to the Field Day log
 uploader on the WIA website have been retrieved successfully.
 
 Secondly, while you have all been waiting patiently for the
 preparation and publication of results, a small team of problem
 solvers has doggedly worked at finding a log-checking application 
 suited to our purpose to satisfy your not unreasonable desire to
 know how you went. 

 And how others went, too.

 Well, a log-checking application suited to our purpose has been 
 found and panel-beaten into shape so as to do the job required.
 Accordingly, work has proceeded to prepare a table of claimed scores
 for the 2021 Spring event from the logs submitted. You will find
 this posted on the VHF-UHF Field Days website.

 Similarly, claimed scores for the 2022 Summer and Winter events will
 be posted to the website also.

 This has been Roger Harrison VK2ZRH for VK1WIA News.




 This is Kevin VK4UH and I am the new manager for the WIA VHF-UHF
 Records program.

 I have great pleasure this morning in announcing TWO new Australian
 Distance records that have been approved by the Board.

 Firstly 
 A new 1296 MHz (23cms) National (Digital) distance record 
 acknowledging the contact between VK3ZAZ and VK6CPU/p on the 18th
 February this year. At a distance of 2168.7 km, this contact
 extended the existing 23cms Digital record by 75km

 Secondly
 A new 3.4GHz (9cms) National (Digital) distance record
 Acknowledging the contact between VK4AFL and VK4UH/p on 27th May
 this year. At a distance of 524km, this contact extended the existing
 9cms digital record by 21.2km

 The WIA has maintained an Historical Archive of distance records
 achieved on all the bands above 50MHz dating back to 1947. These
 Historical Records have been maintained in date-order, even when
 superseded.

 The Archive also records distance records on VHF bands that have
 since been withdrawn from the amateur service in Australia.

 Until his recent passing the VHF-UHF records had been managed and
 maintained by John Martin VK3KM (sk) as one of his many roles as
 Charman of the Technical Advisory Committee. After review, the Board
 has created a new independent position for a manager to take on this
 role - moving forwards.

 In the light or recent advances, particularly with digital operating
 modes on the VHF and microwave bands, the board has also requested a
 review of all record categories for the future.

 There is a new e-mail address now for new distance record claims:-

 E-mail new record claims to:-  istancerecords@wia.org.au

 All outstanding record claims that I am aware of have now been
 processed.  I ask that if there are other claims outstanding then
 please contact me at the same record claims address above.

 This has been Kevin VK4UH
 VHF-UHF Records Manager for the WIA

 It is open to all amateurs who are boaters, cyclists, walkers; and
 other users of the canals, rivers, towpaths and riverbanks for work
 or recreation in the UK

 Even lakes and reservoirs that are used for recreation classify as
 an inland waterway, so there are many places for activating.

 The primary HF band will be 40m so wherever in the world you are,
 " listen up. "

 WW SPECIAL INTEREST GROUPS - FINAL FRONTIER
 AMSAT-VK Secretary - secretary(at)amsat-vk.org

 The cross-band voice repeater and the APRS node aboard the
 International Space Station can now be used simultaneously.

 The FM repeater uplink is on 145.990 MHz, a 67 Hertz PL tone is
 needed to activate the downlink transmitter on 3.800 MHz. APRS and
 packet mode uses 145.825 MHz for uplink and downlink.

 The Columbus module radio uses the call-sign NA 1 SS and the new 
 service module radio uses the call-sign RS 0 ISS. The two radios are
 identical and the packet operation is the same as before. You can
 use RS0ISS, ARISS or APRSAT as data paths. Both radios are expected
 to be on at all times except during school contacts, spacewalks and
 docking maneuvers. 

 Frank Bauer KA 3 HDO ARISS Chairman welcomes the simultaneous
 operation of APRS and the voice repeater on the ISS as a key element
 of the ARISS 2.0 initiative. It offers 24/7 interactive opportunities
 for young people and learners to get involved and train. The
 operational state of the ISS ham-radio station can be found on the
 ARISS website ariss.org




 FalconSat-3 continues to operate, but due to poor battery condition,
 the transmitter needs to be reactivated by command stations
 periodically. The satellite is expected to re-enter in 6-9 months,
 so,  now is the time to use it! 




 Artemis I, the first uncrewed launch of NASA's Space Launch System
 and Orion capsule on a mission around the moon, will carry a number
 of CubeSats and other payloads to the moon, including Omotenashi,
 which will transmit in the 70 cm amateur radio band.

 Radio frequencies can be found at
 sgcderek.github.io/blog/artemis-1.html

 The launch is currently scheduled for August 29th and NASA is also
 encouraging the general public to track the S-band telemetry from
 Artemis I.

 John, VK5DJ has been contacted by Wataru Torii of the JAXA Ham Radio
 Club regarding this OMOTENASHI project which plans to launch a moon
 orbiter and lander late August for arrival at the moon in early
 September.

 Wataru Torii works at the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency.

 The landing device is very small and the entire system orbiter and
 lander is only 6U CubeSat dimensions. The issue they face is that
 earlier launches were planned such that their agency would be able
 to hear the devices when the lander was due to reach the moons
 surface. Unfortunately the launch date has been put off several 
 times and is now due for tomorrow, 29/8/22. It may land on the moon
 on 4/9/22 at 2:45UTC to 3:30UTC at which time it will not be visible
 from Japan so they are hoping to enlist the support of Australian
 and New Zealand amateurs to record and monitor the orbiter and lander.
 As the landing may be quite hard they are especially interested in
 loss of signal and any recordings prior to this, preferably from
 SDRs for the frequency range 437.31 (orbiter) and 437.41 (the lander).

 They are using PSK31.

 All the details are available on their website: 
 isas.jaxa.jp/home/omotenashi/JHRCweb/jhrc.html

 Timings and our window is all dependent on the launch being on the
 29th of August.

 Reasonably good satellite systems should be able to hear the 1W
 signals. If you are interested in helping send me an email
 john@vk5dj.com and Ill send you the contact address for Wataru.

 Youth makes an amateur radio contact with the international space 
 station

 Isabella, an eight-year-old from the UK, used her father's amateur
 radio equipment to chat to an astronaut aboard the ISS and
 Alec VK2APC has the story for us:-

 "Isabella spoke to American astronaut Kjell Lindgren for about
  45 seconds as the ISS passed overhead.

  Dr Lindgren said the conversation "may be my favourite so far".

  Isabella said it was "amazing", adding: "Once he found out I was
  eight, his voice instantly turned from normal to joyful."  Her
  father Matthew, who has held an amateur radio licence for more than
  15 years, found out the ISS was passing overhead from fellow ham
  radio enthusiasts.

  He said: "You have to get the right time when the space station is
  passing overhead, and it has to be the right time of day when the
  astronaut is using the equipment.

 Isabella's parents said their daughter has long held an interest in
 space and ham radio, and they are encouraging her to apply for an
 amateur radio licence.
