Please join us in listening to the following ISS contacts:

 

Dumbleyung Primary School,  Dumbleyung, Western Australia, Australia, 

telebridge via VK4KHZ 

Contact is a  go for: Thu 2009-11-26 11:51:21

 

Institut Don Bosco,  Bruxelles, Belgium, telebridge via ON4ISS 

Contact is a go for: Thu  2009-11-26 12:49:35

 

Katholieke Centrumscholen  Sint-Truiden (KCST), Sint-Truiden, Belgium, 

telebridge via ON4ISS

Audio from these contacts will be fed into the EchoLink *AMSAT* (101377) and
*JK1ZRW* (277208) servers. 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.

 

IRLP will be fed into the IRLP 'Discovery' Reflector (9010).

 

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>
www.discoveryreflector.ca:8000/listen.pls

 

The audio on the Internet can be delayed by anything up to two minutes.

 

** Contact times are approximate. If the ISS executes a reboost or other
manoeuvre, the AOS (Acquisition Of Signal) time may alter by a few minutes
**

 

73,
