Hello

 

Please join us in listening to the ISS contact with Ottawa South United
Sports Club, Ottawa, Canada at 14:20 UTC on Tuesday 11th August. This will
be a telebridge and the ground station is W6SRJ.

 

Another contact this week is the Euro Space Center, Night of Stars at 19:59
UTC on Thursday 13th August. This is also a telebridge, the ground station
is once again W6SRJ.

 

Audio from this contact will be fed into the IRLP 'Discovery' Reflector
(9010) and the EchoLink *AMSAT* (101377) and *JK1ZRW* (277208) servers.
IRLP and Echolink audio is generally transmitted around 15 minutes prior to
the contact taking place so that you can hear some of the preparation that
occurs.

 

Please note that on Echolink there are automatic breaks of 1.5 seconds in
the audio transmission. These occur every 2.5 minutes during the event.

 

For your information, when any ARISS event is supported through the IRLP
"Discovery" Reflector 9010, audio is also automatically streamed to the
Internet.

 

It is then available via the 'Discovery' Reflector's companion web site
www.discoveryreflector.ca . Once on its main page, select "Audio Library"
(left sidebar). The prompt to join the audio stream is posted at the top of
this page. You can access the URL directly at
www.discoveryreflector.ca:8000/listen.pls

 

The audio on the Internet is typically delayed by about two minutes.

 

73,

Graham
