WORLDBEAT - UK: THE DIGITAL WORLD IS HERE

The world of digital ham radio comes another step
closer to reality. This as the Radio Society of
Great Britain is says that digital is the future
of ham radio and its restructuring some of its
committees so as to be ready. Jeramy Boot, G4NJH, has the details:

--

A study of the work of the Data Communications
Committee and the Repeater Management Committee
has revealed increasingly common ground,
especially where internet gateways and internet
linking to repeaters are concerned.

Advances are also being made towards the
introduction of digital modes such as D-Star and
APCO25 that amongst other newer technologies can
carry both voice and data streams.

With this in mind it has been agreed that a new
committee based on the Repeater Management
Committee structure and to be known as the
Emerging Technology Co-ordination Committee will
replace the DCCand RMC with immediate affect. The
new committee will be chaired by John McCullagh,
GI4BWM, with Iain Philipps, G0RDI, as
Vice-Chairman. Other committee members will
include current Regional Repeater Managers and
Steve Morton, G8SFR, who will continue to
co-ordinate Internet Gateway applications.

I'm Jeramy Boot, G4NJH and you are listening to the Amateur Radio Newsline.

--

What this means is that U-K hams involved in both
digital and analog relay communications or
transitioning from analog to digital now have one
central base of knowledge to work with. It also
puts the Radio Society of great Britain at the
forefront of political leadership in the U-K as
the changeover takes place. (GB2RS)

RESCUE RADIO: VK HAMS RESPOND AS FLOODS HIT

Hams from several Australian provinces have
responded in the wake of severe weather and
flooding that has hit the North Queensland
area. Graham Kemp, VK4BB, of the WIA News, has the details:

--

Mal VK4MAL is currently working with the Red
Cross Counter-Disaster division in the flooded
areas of the New South Wales Central Coast and Hunter Region.

Mal VK4MAL is Counter-Disaster Co-ordinator for
Red Cross in North Queensland and he and
hundreds of other volunteers were shipped in
from across VK to provide some help for flood
weary local volunteers and residents of the disaster zone.

VK2ATZ/portable the Westlakes AR Club were in
the thick of things, but were still able,
somehow, to score a vantage point to see
the container ship which was washed ashore at Nobby's Beach on the Friday
morning.

Saturday Westlakes Amateur Radio Club was
open....But not for usual business. It was open
to the few that braved the weather and answered
the calls for help to clean up the debris from
the horrible weather suffered the previous night.

Some helping included VK2YPW, VK2AFZ, VK2ZM and
Keith VK2PKT, Paul VK2BPL, and Richard VK2FRKO also John VK2FJKG

Then when the Hunter River in Maitland looked
like breaking its banks on Sunday, the Volunteer
Rescue Association wasted no time in securing
the specialist communications skills of WICEN (NSW).

Eight operators from the Hunter Region were
deployed at Rutherford, and they were tasked
with passing intelligence reports to the
services involved, along with monitoring and
reporting the river levels at 15 minute
intervals. This involved three teams, two at the
gauges and one at the control centre; all were
alert and busy throughout the night and into the next morning.

As well as this, teams were on stand-by in both
the Sydney North and Central Coast Regions, but
as the floods abated they were not required;
it is worth noting that although members in the
Central Coast Region also suffered from the
storm, some were still able to respond. Other
VRA squads such as CREST and Cave Rescue were also involved.

I'm Graham Kemp, VK4BB, of the WIA News reporting
for the amateur Radio Newsline.

The President of the Volunteer Rescue Association
is Ray Gill. He thanked the Australian ham
community for its prompt emergency service response.

THE BPL FIGHT: ARRL REPS HAM RADIO ON BPL TO ITU

A major meeting of the International
Telecommunications Union that could help
determine the future of ham radio world-wide is
taking place in Switzerland. It involves
BPL. Rob Mt. Barker, VK5MM, is here with the rest of the story:

--

ARRL Chief Executive Officer and IARU Secretary
David Sumner, K1ZZ, have been representing the
IARU at a meeting of ITU-R Working Party 1A in Geneva, Switzerland.

Working Party 1A is responsible for spectrum
engineering techniques within Study Group 1
(spectrum management) and has been working on a
document that may eventually become what's
called a "preliminary draft new report" on
the impact of power line telecommunications
(PLT, what we call BPL on this side of the
Pacific) on radiocommunication systems operating below 80 MHz.

Of course, the IARU's interest is in ensuring
that the report accurately reflects the
sensitivity of the amateur services to interference from this source.

Also meeting at about the same time (June
12-20), ITU-R Working Party 8A, which is
responsible for most of the land mobile services,
plus the amateur and amateur-satellite services.
WP 8A hopes to complete work on a "draft new
handbook for the amateur and amateur-satellite
services" to be published by the ITU.

I'm Rob, VK5MM

THE BPL FIGHT: CONGRESS MAY ORDER INVESTIGATION OF IJNTERFERENCE

The ARRL says that the United States Senate may
investigate Broadband Over Powerline's's
interference potential to Amateur Radio. This
after Senator Mark Pryor files a bill calling on
the Federal Communications Commission to conduct
a study on the interference caused by broadband
Internet transmission over power distribution
systems to customers homes. Amateur Radio
Newsline's David Black, KB4KCH, is here with mo

--

Senator Mark Pryor of Arkansas is a member of the
Senate's Committee on Commerce, Science, and
Transportation. If the measure he introduced
gains the needed support, then Senate Bill 1629
would call for the same studies to be performed
as does House Bill 462. That measure was
introduced on January 12th by Rep Mike Ross of
Arkansas. Both would require the FCC to conduct
and submit to that committee and to the House of
Representatives Committee on Energy and Commerce
a report on a study of interference potential of
systems for the transmission of broadband Internet services over power
lines.

According to the ARRL, there are to be four
required areas of inquiry. First is the
variation of field strength of BPL service
signals with distance from overhead power lines,
and a technical justification for the use of any
particular distance extrapolation factor.

Then, the depth of adaptive, or 'notch,'
filtering for attenuating normally permitted BPL
service radiated emission levels that would be
necessary and sufficient to protect the
reliability of mobile radio communications.

Also required would be a technical justification
for the permitted, radiated emission levels of
BPL signals relative to ambient levels of man-made noise from other sources.

Lastly such a report would require the FCC to
provide options for new or improved rules related
to the transmission of BPL service that, if
implemented, might prevent harmful interference
to public safety and other radio communications
systems. This is something that the FCC has been
reticent to do since it embraced B-P-L technology several years ago.

For the Amateur Radio Newsline, I'm David Black,
KB4KCH, at the South-East bureau in Birmingham, Alabama,

--


The ARRL is very thankful for this turn of events
in the BPL struggle. League President Joel
Harrison, W5ZN, said that the League is grateful
for Senator Pryor's support. He added that the
Senator's recognition of Amateur Radio's role in
emergency communications and public safety is also greatly appreciated.

ON THE AIR: 6 METERS TURNS SUMMER HOT

Six meters is showing signs of being the V-H-F
band of choice for this summers D-X season. We have more in this report:

--

That's right Don. 6 meters has been the band of
choice of VHF DX enthusiasts, with contacts like
this one becoming more and more commonplace.

--

Sound of VE3TMG working Hawaii: Hear it in the
MP3 version of the newscast downloadable at www.arnewsline.org

--

That's Terry Greenwood, VE3TMG, in Windsor,
Ontario, Canada working Fred Benardella, KH6FI,
Mountain View, Hawaii, recorded on June
18th. That's a path across land and sea of close to 4500 nautical miles.

But hams in the U-S-A are not the only ones
experiencing long haul contacts on the Magic
Band. Also on the 18th, Ev Tupis, W2EV, in
Holley New York reported over the V-H-F Reflector
that he was experiencing multi-hop from to EA8 on
6m. Ev also said that there were reports of 2
meter E skip contact taking place between Ohio to
Newfoundland. A bit later, John Fridenstine,
W8PAT, in Oberlin, Ohio, posted that worked or
heard all continents in a 12 hour period. For
him it was South America in the morning, Europe,
Afirca and Oceania in the a afternoon and Asia on EME in the evening.

We don't have any recordings of those, but we do
have of a truly rare south to north 6 meter
station. Heres Octavio Miranda, YN2N, in
Nicaragua trying to contact a W 5 station on what
was likely Trans-Equatorial propagation:

--

Sound of YN2N: Hear it in the MP3 version of the
newscast downloadable at www.arnewsline.org

--

The sation he was trying to work and eventually
did contract was Pat Dyer, WA5IYX, in San
Antonio, Texas. Pat tells Amateur Radio Newsline
that while not the greatest signal, Miranda was
the first Nicaraguan that he has heard or worked
in his 43 years operating 6 meters. The signals
were only 5 by 5 at WA5IYX but YN2N gave Pat a 10 db over S 9 report.

Getting on 6 meters is no longer very
expensive. The primary D-X mode is Upper
Sideband. The primary calling frequency is
50.125 Mhz and for casual operation a simple
dipole with a total length of 108 inches will
suffice. And with even that simple a set-up you
never know what you might work or hear.

For the latest, up to the minute 6 meter D-X news
take your web browser to the 6 Meter Prop
Logger. Its in cyberspace at http://www.dxworld.com/50prop.html

Also, if you operate on 6 meters, be sure to
switch it to A-M mode and tune up to 50.5 MHz now
and again. That's where a lot of old timers
using 1950's vintage gear hang out and you never
know who you might hear. (ARNewsline(tm))

ENFORCEMENT NEWS: FBI INVESTIGATING PHONY REPORTS TO THE NEWS

The FBI has entered into an investigation
surrounding bogus severe weather reports e-mailed
to the National Weather Service. The false
information has caused the to issue unnecessary
warnings that have taxed the resources of a number of communities.

The phony reports were sent to the NWS over its
Web page. Investigators have already traced the
Internet Protocol address of the computer sending the false reports.

Jeff Lanza,is the special FBI agent in charge of
the investigation. He says that the effort to
track down the source of bogus information to the
weather service could be the first in the
U.S. He adds that providing false information to
the federal government is punishable by up to
five years in jail. (Tech OnLine)

ENFORCEMNENT TECHNOLOGY: NEW CELLPHONE SENSORS

The Department of Homeland Security has
reportedly launched an initiative asking the
wireless industry about the potential for
equipping a new generation of cellular telephones
with technology. This, to scan and detect
harmful compounds in the environment and
automatically relay the readings to a central
monitoring point. The concept, known as
"Cell-All," is said to have attracted the
interest of several companies, and partnerships
with handset manufacturers are being discussed. More is on-line at

NAMES IN THE NEWS: FCC CHAIRMAN AGAIN SAYS YES TO CABLE A LA CARTE

Federal Communications Commission Chairman Kevin
Martin has renewed a long simmering debate over
"a la carte" programming at a recent cable
industry gathering in Las Vegas,
Nevada. According to news reports, Martin told
the audience at the annual "Cable Show" that
consumers should be able to purchase what they
want without being forced to buy what they don't.

Martin has supported implementing "a la carte"
service, where consumers could choose and pay for
individual channels, rather than purchase them in
bundles from their cable companies. He said the
issue was increasingly important since the price
for "expanded basic" cable has doubled since 1996. (Published reports)

NAMES IN THE NEWS: HAM POLICE OFFICER INJURED IN THE LINE OF DUTY

A Southern California ham well known for his work
in helping to remove repeater jammer Jack
Gerritsen, the ex-KG6IRO, from the airwaves has
been injured in a traffic accident. This with
word that Los Angeles County Deputy Sheriff
Burton Brink, N6USO, was hurt in an on-duty
traffic collision the morning of June 6th.

The accident occurred when a driver tried to exit
the carpool lane on the Interstate 10
freeway. Driving in a carpool lane requires two
or more occupants in the vehicle. This driver
was alone and according to a report from the San
Gabriel Valley Radio Club, a California Highway
Patrol unit was ahead when the driver tried to
avoid a ticket for a carpool violation. The
driver did not check for a clear lane and
collided with Brink who was on motorcycle patrol.

N6USO was admitted to the County USC Medical
Center in Los Angeles where it was determined
that he had sustained multiple rib fractures, a
punctured lung, and lacerated spleen, as well as
associated road rash. His injuries, though
serious, do not appear to be life threatening.

A career law enforcement officer, Burton Brink
has been with the Los Angeles County Sheriff's
Department since 1989. Prior to that he was an
Officer with Monterey Park Police Dept. from 1982
to 1989, and an Arcadia Police Explorer Cadet from 1977 to 1982.

N6USO is also the owner of the 145.440 MHz
repeater located on Southern California's Sunset
Ridge. This was one of many repeaters targeted
for jamming and harassment by Jack Gerritsen
during the years prior to his latest arrest and 7
year jail sentence that he is currently
serving. A trained investigator, Brink stood his
ground against Gerritsen and is among those
credited as helping to bring Gerritsen before the bar justice.

Get well wishes can be sent to Burton Brink,
N6USO, at his callbook address. (SGVARC, WA6ILQ)

NAMES IN THE NEWS: CATHERINE DEATON TO RETIRE FROM THE FCC

The FCC employee also generally credited with
sending radio jammer Jack Gerritsen to prison
will be retiring from the Commission on August
3rd. This with word that Catherine Deaton, who
heads FCC Enforcement Bureau's Los Angeles field
office will be leaving government service
following 40 years that includes 10 years as an
undercover narcotics agent and the past 27 years working at the FCC.

Bob Gonsett, W6VR, who writes the CGC
Communicator calls Deaton a breath of fresh air
for the L.A. field office. In his June 19th
edition, he noted that ubder her guidance the Los
Angeles bureau's door has been open to all
inquiries and concerns, the attitude of the
office has been positive and the results impressive.

After August 3, Deaton plans to do a bit of
traveling, help her daughter in her medical
services business and fully exercise her gym
membership. If you'd like to send her your best
wishes, e-mail her at (CGC)

NAMES IN THE NEWS: CONGRESS TO HONOR "MR WIZARD"

A follow up to our story last week on the passing
of television's first ever teacher of science and
technology. On Monday, June 18th the U.S. House
of Representatives honored Don Herbert, better
known as "Mr. Wizard," in a resolution passed on the House floor.

Representative Vernon Ehlers of Michigan
co-sponsored the resolution to honor Herbert, who
died of cancer at the age of 89. In his
sponsorship statement Ehlers said that the "Mr.
Wizard" show laid the groundwork for the
educational television genre that later spawned
cable channels devoted to science, like the
Discovery Channel. The show also created Mr.
Wizard Science Clubs nationwide with 5000 such groups operating by 1995.

Ehlers stated that as a child, he didn't have TV,
but he read science magazines his sister gave
him that she would get from her high school
science class. Ehlers said that he would then
perform his own home experiments from the
magazines. He closed by noting that he was happy
to co-sponsor Don Herbert's official recognition
by the Congress of the United States. (Published Reports)

ON THE AIR: W8HC TO COMMEMORATE MARCONI

2007 marks the centennial of those first signals
generated from Marconi's historic station in the
United Kingdom. To commemorate this event, as
well as radio's first-ever commercial venture,
Hal Turley, W-8-H-C has announced a special
amateur radio operation from two locations
central to Marconi as a pioneer in wireless
technology. Once again, Jeramy Boot, G4NJH, is in Nottingham, with mo

--

On Saturday and Sunday, August 4 and 5, Turley
will operate portable G I from from
Ballycastle. He will be also taking part in the
annual Marconi Festival at Ballycastle with the
Marconi Radio Group's special event station
MN0MRG on Sunday, August 5th. On Monday, August
6, Hal will ferry over to Rathlin Island and operate from East Lighthouse.

Leaving Northern Ireland, Hal will arrive in
Clifden on Wednesday, August 8 where he will
operate portable E I at the Derrygimla site on
August 9th and 10th. It is hoped that some
operating time can also occur from nearby
Letterfrack, site of an ancillary receive station
built in 1912 to allow for full duplex operation of the transatlantic
signals.

Contacts will be confirmed via Logbook to the
World and special QSLs from each of these
historic Marconi locations will be printed and
sent via the Global QSL system at
www.globalqsl.com. In addition, a specially
designed certificate will be issued to those
stations making contact with both GI and EI
operations from either Ballycastle or Rathlin and Derrygimla or Letterfrack.

Voyager 1 was received by the AMSAT D-L team
using the 20 meter dish in Bochum.

Voyager 1 is the furthest object away from earth
to be built by humans. As a token of their
collective appreciation, the controllers not
only confirmed the reception report. They also

HAM RADIO IN SPACE: ME AND MY BABY - MONITOR

An elementary school science teacher in this
Chicago suburb didn't have to turn on the news
for an update on the now concluded STS 117 space
shuttle mission. This was because her baby
monitor decided to become a shuttle mission video
delivery service of its very own.

Beginning on Sunday, June 10th, one of the two
channels on Natalie Meilinger's baby monitor
began picking up video from inside the space
shuttle Atlantis. Summer Infant Products which
manufactured the remote monitoring system said
that it is investigating what could be causing
the video to appear on Meilingers unit but is so
far baffeled. Company Communications Director
Cindy Barlow said that she never heard of anything similar happening.

Meantime, NASA had its say as well. Spokesperson
Brandi Dean issued a statement denying that the
signal Meilinger was seeing was not coming
directly from the shuttle. She noted that the
live video is available on NASA's Web site, so
it's possible the monitor was picking up a signal
from some localized rebroadcast.

So far it does not look as if any local hams or
ham radio retransmission of NASA video is
responsible. More likely it's a neighbor with
one of those in home television rebroadcast units
used to send cable or satellite delivered
television to other rooms. (Published reports)

HAM RADIO ON THE WEB: REPEATER HISTORY - A VICARIOUS TRIP BACK TO WR6ABE

If you want to take a look back at repeater
technology of the mid-1970's, have we got a
website for you. Actually the website is
YouTube.com and its where Steve Jensen, W6RHM,
has posted some great video transfers shot on
film in 1976 by his father, the late Bob Jensen, W6VGQ.

The four short movie clips feature a trip to
California's original Mount Wilson two meter
repeater, WR6ABE. Even better, the travelogue is
hosted by the repeater's creator, Burt Weiner, K6OQK:

--

K6OQK audio here. Hear it in the MP3 version of
the newscast downloadable at www.arnewsline.org

Weiner narrates from two locations. Both the
actual repeater site overlooking the Los Angeles
basin and what you just heard from the control
point at his former home. As a bonus, you get to
meet many of the systems users from that era who
helped to make this obscure repeater into a
legend of the golden age of ham radio relay station development.

Its truly a trip back in time to an era when
tubes were still king and repeaters used a lot of them. Look for it at:
