[arrl-odv:15162] Missing ARRL badge
by Brian Mileshosky 22 Jan '07

22 Jan '07

All -- Just stepped into the house after a long day of flying. Thanks for another fun and productive weekend! I did manage to misplace my ARRL badge sometime Saturday during the meeting. I remember walking out of the room with it on my suit jacket before the meeting, and noticed that it was no longer on when I returned after the meeting. The front desk did have it when I asked this morning. I'm going to call them again tomorrow, but might any of you come across it? No need to reply if your answer is "no" so we don't clutter mailboxes. 73, Brian, N5ZGT

Well, the delays actually worked in our favor this time. Since both flights were delayed, we had no problem making connections, though we arrived in Memphis an hour later than originally forecasted! Still, I'll be driving up in July. I like flying, but much prefer driving. Be that as it may, it was a great meeting. I appreciate very much the orientation at HQ, and of course, the operating time at W1AW. Amy and I both enjoyed the stay, as well as the fellowship with our fraternal Hams, but it's back to the real world now, which is not entirely a bad thing! Thanks to you all, and we look forward to seeing y'all again in July! 73, Karl, WA5TMC

[arrl-odv:15160] Uneventful Flight Home
by dick＠pobox.com 21 Jan '07

21 Jan '07

21 JAN 2006 - 1355 CST As some of you know, I departed the hotel about an hour after the conclusion of our very well-run board meeting. I was originally scheduled to fly home from Hartford this morning, but the revised WX forecast and the availability of a Saturday evening American flight to Chicago for the first time in about ten years, made up my mind. This morning, I woke up to an inch of fresh snow and it has been lightly snowing at varying rates all morning. Total snowfall is still forecast to be no more than five inches when it ends this evening. It's now about 2 minutes to kick-off of the NFC championship game. I hope all of you have an easy return home. 73 - Dick, W9GIG

The courses will be open to both beginners and experts. ________________________________ Dick Norton, N6AA <http://www2.arrl.org/news/features/2007/01/17/1/n6aa1.jpg> One southern California ARDF practice and training session of 2006 was at Topanga State Park, which is close to the home of ARRL Southwestern Division Director Dick Norton, N6AA. Everyone was pleased when Dick came out to the session, borrowed an RDF set, went out on the course and found all five transmitters with a very respectable elapsed time.

[Joe Moell, K0OV, photo] Judging by my mail, it's clear that more hams in more places tried on-foot hidden transmitter hunting under international rules last year. This radio sport, which goes by the names foxtailing, radio-orienteering and Amateur Radio Direction Finding (ARDF), got its start in Scandinavia after World War II. It grew to prominence in Europe during the 1950s, with national and continental competitions mostly on the 80-meter band. Later, events with 2-meter AM "foxes" were added, and Asians joined Europeans at the biennial world championships. Hams in the US first tried ARDF in the early 1990s, but it didn't take off in this country for almost another decade. Since 1999, however, growth has been steady. Every month, more hams in more states discover this enjoyable way of improving their fitness and radio skills at the same time. Last year's USA ARDF Championships attracted stateside hams over a wide age range, plus visitors from England and Germany. ARDF is an ideal activity for Scouting, as I discussed last October <http://www2.arrl.org/news/features/2006/10/10/1/> . Our 2006 Jamboree On The Air (JOTA <http://www2.arrl.org/FandES/ead/> ) near Santa Barbara brought it to more youth than ever at an excellent Scout camp in the Santa Ynez Mountains. Did your club include foxhunting in JOTA? If so, I would like to hear from you. Bringing Home the Bronze The biggest ARDF news of 2006 in this part of the world occurred when Nadia Scharlau of Cary, North Carolina, became the first American to capture a medal in the World Championships of ARDF, which took place in Primorsko, Bulgaria. Not only was she the first US radio-orienteer to do so, but she was the first from International Amateur Radio Union (IARU <http://www.iaru.org/> ) Region 2 (the Americas and the Caribbean nations). Nadia was one of 13 members of ARDF Team USA, who hailed from eight states and earned their positions in our 2005 and 2006 national championship competitions. ARDF was a large part of Nadia's life as she grew up in the former Soviet Union. She began winning medals by capturing gold at the European Championships in 1984. After moving to the US, she rediscovered the sport five years ago and picked up where she left off. She's earned a spot on Team USA for every world championship event since 2002. Last September 16, Nadia tied for third place in the category for women of her age range (W35) in the 80 meter event. A tie for medals is very unusual in ARDF, since standings are determined by elapsed time, measured electronically to the second. But the circumstances in this case were equally unusual. I'll tell that story shortly, but first some background. Foxtailers find their way in the woods with an orienteering map that shows elevation contours just like a topographical map. An O-map also has color-coded indications of vegetation as well as standard symbols for trails, roads, fences, buildings, large boulders, and so forth. It is oriented with respect to magnetic north for easy navigation with a compass. Competitors in each category start at five-minute intervals, to prevent "follow-the-leader" issues. Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers are not allowed on the courses, but a sixth transmitter on a separate frequency is located at the finish corridor so competitors can use RDF to find their way home. This has proven invaluable to those who have lost their maps, glasses or contact lenses during the hunt. National and world championship foxhunts are scored first by number of transmitters found and second by elapsed time. You will almost always score higher if you find all your required transmitters and get to the finish in two hours than if you skip one and get to the finish 30 minutes sooner. There is a course time limit -- typically 2-1/2 to 3 hours -- after which a competitor is disqualified if he or she has not reached the finish. Nadia's husband Charles, NZ0I, also a 2006 Team USA member, recalls the 80-meter course. "There were sufficient trails out where the foxes were, but when it was time to go to the finish, there was a lack of trails and you had to go cross-country," he said. "It was pretty hilly. No matter what route you chose, you had to go up and down through the trees with very few landmarks to guide you." Nadia found the last of her four required foxes at 1:04:42 elapsed time. Only one other person in W35, Lyubov Provatorova of Russia, had better time at that split. "When I got my last transmitter," Nadia said, "I knew I would be very close to the medals, because I did not lose much time and did well in my judgment. But when I tuned to the finish beacon frequency, it was not there. I was shocked." Nadia continued, "I checked the frequency written on my map holder and, yes, I was tuning to the right frequency. I checked the other transmitters again, and I could hear them all, but not the finish beacon. Of course I knew the approximate direction, but there were no roads, it was green area. I was losing valuable time, so I ran what I thought was the right direction and stopped every two minutes to see if the beacon was back on. These woods were very complicated, so I was devastated at the finish." For the 1.4 kilometer split from last fox to finish corridor, through heavy vegetation, the other top three W35 finishers took 10:33 to 12:12. They all had the benefit of the finish beacon, because they all started significantly earlier or later than Nadia. Without the beacon, it took Nadia 14:24 to get through the brush from last fox to the corridor. This coincided almost exactly with the duration of the beacon failure. A protest and appeal was made to the international jury, consisting of representatives from all three IARU regions. According to Team USA Captain Harley Leach, KI7XF, the jury deliberated the matter for several hours. The final decision was to credit Nadia's time by 1:09, tying her for third place and qualifying her for a bronze medal. Nadia was very pleased, of course, but she said, "I am very proud for our entire team, especially on the second day, because the courses were very challenging with high hills and few trails. We had to think and work very hard. That is what I like about ARDF, it is always interesting because it is like solving a puzzle on the run." NZ0I summed it all up very well: "The entire team did an excellent job on two very difficult courses. Illness, minor injuries, and equipment mishaps took their toll on Team USA, as they did on other nations' teams," he said. "But I believe that in the end, we proved ourselves to be better prepared than in any previous championships. If we continue to improve and can recruit new talent, especially in the younger age categories, the future looks bright for ARDF Team USA." Sniffing in the Sierras For Nadia and Charles, the World Championships were their second ARDF triumph of 2006. The first was in April, when they co-chaired the sixth annual USA ARDF Championships <http://www2.arrl.org/news/features/2006/05/05/1/> near their home. They did an excellent job, which will be hard to top, but some hams in California are getting set to try. Members of the Santa Barbara Amateur Radio Club <http://www.sbarc.org/> and the Los Angeles Orienteering Club <http://www.losangelesorienteering.org/> will present the 2007 USA ARDF Championships from September 14 through 16 at South Lake Tahoe, in the Sierra Mountains near the border between California and Nevada. As in recent odd-numbered years, the 2007 USA ARDF Championships will be combined with the ARDF championships for IARU Region 2. Marvin Johnston, KE6HTS, chairs the organizing committee. The competition courses for this event will be in the same forests where the United States Orienteering Federation held its 2003 national championships of classic orienteering with 350 competitors in attendance. The maps are excellent and the course-setter will be Bob Cooley, KF6VSE, a winner of medals in both classic and radio-orienteering. The fun will get under way on Friday with practice and equipment testing sessions, followed by a meeting for orientation and rules review. The 2 meter contest will take place on Saturday, after which all will gather for a banquet in the evening. Sunday's schedule includes the 80 meter contest and an awards ceremony, timed to end in mid-afternoon to accommodate those who must hurry home. Event headquarters will be at Camp Concord in the El Dorado National Forest. An inexpensive package including two nights of lodging in the rustic cabins and five group meals will be offered to event registrants. Camp Concord is fully accredited by the American Camping Association, but for those who don't prefer cabin life, several motels are available within three to five miles. National ARDF championships are for individuals only. No teaming or assistance on the course is permitted. There are five participant age categories for men and four for women, in accordance with standard IARU rules <http://members.aol.com/homingin/intlfox.html> . Medals for first, second and third place will be awarded in each category. Depending on the category, each competitor will be required to find three, four or all five transmitters on each day's course. Typical total distances from start to each fox and then to the finish are four to seven kilometers, depending on category. There is a time limit, typically about three hours. The best foxtailers usually finish in an hour or less. Even if you have never competed in an ARDF event before, you will be welcome at the USA and IARU Region 2 championships. The courses will be open to all, beginner and expert alike. This country's best foxtailers will be present, and they love to help newcomers at the practice session. To provide even more learning opportunities, there are plans for a two-day ARDF training camp just before the championships. This year's world-class course sites will attract the attention of ARDF enthusiasts from around the globe as well as around the states. Inquiries about attending have already been received from Asia. Previous IARU Region 2 championships in the US have drawn visiting competitors from Australia, Canada, the Czech Republic, Bulgaria, Hungary, Japan, Kazakhstan, Russia and Sweden. Any kind of portable radio direction finding equipment may be used on ARDF courses as long as one person can carry it from start to finish, and it does not emit any RF signals. Typical gear for 2 meters includes a flexible-element Yagi and a receiver with S meter and RF attenuation <http://members.aol.com/homingin/equipment.html> . On 80 meters, receivers with loop or ferrite rod directional antennas <http://members.aol.com/joemoell/80intro.html> are the norm. Mark your calendar for September 14-16 and start honing your foxtailing skills. Registration for the championships will open in about three months. You will find updates and registration information at my "Homing In" <http://members.aol.com/homingin/index.html> Web site as they are issued. I'm looking for another record-setting year for ARDF in 2007 and I hope you and your family will be a part of it. See you in the woods!

Wed also like to extend an overdue welcome to warehouse temp Neil Williams, ext 326. We also appreciate the building-wide response to our call for additional help! Thanks go to Frankie Perez and Carol Michaud, both from the DXCC Branch, for pitching-in last week. Business Services In addition to QST, QEX and NCJ advertising, we continue to work on acquiring advertising insertions for the ARRL Repeater Directory, ARRL General Class License Manual, General Q & A and ARRL Antenna Book. With specialty advertising from a major manufacturer and a number of advertisers increasing their ad sizes, March 2007 QST will exceed revenue projections. However, we were informed that for the present RF Parts and decided to cease all advertising and Alinco has decided to pursue an every-other-month advertising schedule. We are continuing to step up our prospecting for new advertisers to compensate for the previously expected revenue from these two clients. Lab Ed Hare reports that on January 12, Kaicom and Main.net BPL equipment was issued certification by the FCC. Both reports show that when operated at maximum power levels, the equipment is below the FCC limits for emissions.

This week, 171 pounds of cards were received from members. Field & Educational Services Field Organization/Public Service Team Chuck Skolaut reviewed and forwarded to the FCC some documentation he received from Official Observers about a problem on simplex frequencies in Missouri. A favorable outcome was reported by a California OOC regarding a recent hearing he was involved with that stemmed from his OO activities. Several audio tapes were received in response to an earlier FCC monitoring request about a 160 meter operation. Riley Hollingsworth extended thanks upon receiving some excellent reports in response to an earlier monitoring request. Chuck forwarded these comments to the appropriate individuals. Reports of unidentified jamming heard on 40 and 20 meters are believed to be no-amateur. Several over the horizon radar reports on 75 meters were also noted. The Military Affiliated Radio System (MARS) is presently planning a simulated emergency exercise in February with a number of served agencies and government entities. The exercise would occur in the Northeast, the Mid Atlantic states and the Midwest. MARS has invited ARES and the ARRL Field Organization to participate. When available, information will be sent to Section Leaders who are within the exercise footprint. Steve Ewald received Field Organization activity reports from Section Leaders and continued to work on the March QST Public Service column. Leona Adams received and handled over 40 Section budget expense reports for 2006 on the last two work days before the January 9 deadline. Twenty Field Organization appointment packages were sent out to new appointees. San Joaquin Valley SM Charles McConnell, W6DPD, and John Dyer, AE5B, a former SM of West Texas, have been nominated for new terms of office. March 9 is the receipt deadline for Section Manager nominations for this particular cycle. ARISS PR: Astronaut Suni Williams is helping Amateur Radio earn good PR from school QSOs. She says: The kids are great and are always ready to ask their questions. It has been informative and interesting, and I am ready to do more. For ARRL Members: Rosalie prepared the ARISS section of the F&ES Report to the Board. Her local club had kids on the air for ARRLs Kids Day at the citys science museum. ARISS Effect on Students: Romeo Elementary School in rural Florida is preparing for its QSO by engaging 4th and 5th graders in science experiments (radio waves, sound waves), and making QSOs with hams around the US with the help of ARRLs Silver Springs Radio Club. Club members gave presentations and demos to students, and set up a Web site for the community to follow their ARISS activity. The teacher won two grants to buy radio equipment, an antenna and a satellite tracking program. Astronaut Joe Acaba, a former teacher from the area, will be visiting the school. Seventh grade students from Northlawn School and St. Anthony School in Illinois have had ARISS integrated in their math and science lessons, studying electromagnetic waves, tracking and timing the ISS, and researching ISS onboard experiments. ARRLs Starved Rock Radio Club will assist with the QSO. International Aspects: Rosalie helped design forms and form letters asking for parental permission to post video and audio of students participating in ARISS QSOs. We have received requests from Web sites for posting the video of these educational activities. Field & Education Team Hamfest & ConventionsHamfestsHamfest Apps.

Air Force MARS requested a clarification on contacts with amateur stations for an upcoming MARS event, and it was confirmed with the FCC that nothing in Part 97 would prohibit amateurs from contacting MARS stations if the government authorizes the MARS stations to communicate with amateurs for the event (similar to what occurs in the annual Armed Forces Day exercise). Daily queries as to the effective date of 05-235 continue to be handled via email and telephone. Discussions were held with ARRL Counsel, the Rocky Mountain Division Director and the Wyoming Section manager regarding a bill being introduced into the Wyoming legislature that would prohibit use of cell phones while driving. While Chris Imlay advises that such a bill usually does not impact amateur operation, the Wyoming bill does make a special exception for CB radio operators but do not mention amateurs. We will work with this group to try and get language included in the bill also exempting amateur radio operators before it goes to committee for hearings. We were contacted by the TIS Department to provide input in a case where a WiFi distributor to a trailer park is claiming that his system is protected from interference from amateur and CB radio transmissions and that amateur will have to accept interference which may be caused by his proposed WiFi distribution system. After am unofficial check with the FCC, it is clear that the WiFi distributors statements are (as the FCC representative put it) ridiculous at best. Fraudulent at worst. A query was received about how the FCC is going to handle instances of multiple vanity call applications being received on the same day from the same individual. In question is a situation where three days after the new rules went into effect an individual filed 30 on-line applications on the same day for the same call. The FC is aware of this case and will dismiss all but the first application. (Note: The FCC states at least two other instances of this have occurred since the rule change December 15 and they are considering possible changes to the ULS system that would not allow this to happen in the future.) The situation of the California OOC seeking an injunction about harassment over his OO duties appears to have been resolved through a California court-appointed mediator. The OO obtained his desired injunction and the counter-claim asking for an injunction prohibiting him from citing people as part of his OO responsibilities was denied by the Court. (Note: the website at the heart of his dispute has been discontinued.) Amateur Radio Education & Technology ProgramMark Spencer The L/C/R and DSP fundamentals activity boards have been constructed for the summers TI. Construction of the final board, the Ohms Law Exploration Board has been started. The web pages for the TI announcement have been updated. I received the first application for the 2007 TI. The supply of the Sat688 boards is virtually exhausted, once the supply is gone, requests will be referred to FarCircuits.

Chris, What seems to have been overlooked here is the original reason for the proposal - the arrival of more new and wider digital signals on the band. This is probably going to increase as we go forward. That problem is an HF one rather than VHF and above. As there is currently no limit on digital bandwidth except for the "unattended automatic station" in Part 97, we face the potential problem of someone coming up with a wiz bang digital application that catches on and then we have them plunking down in the digital portions of our HF bands or moving lower in the bands. As some of us are aware EU stations have more freedom in this area than we do. It is entirely possible for them to set up shop on what US stations now consider their CW turf. That being said, bandwidth regulation at VHF is not going to accomplish much and it sure will not be controversial. Bandwidth regulation at HF is controversial mainly because most of our operators there do not understand the issue or the threat which digital innovation holds for them. They have for years been worried about SSB taking over. Well, sound cards and computers have changed all that. It's going to be an interesting meeting. Perhaps we can also talk about Red Cross MOUs. 73 de Frank....N2FF...... w3kd(a)aol.com wrote: > > HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL; DIRECTORS, VICE DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS ONLY > > Greetings.

HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL; DIRECTORS, VICE DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS ONLY Greetings. I have just received a call from Bill Cross at FCC, who I am convinced is trying in this instance to be helpful to us. He asked if the Board planned to address the Regulation by Bandwidth Petition at this upcoming meeting. I told him that I would report to the Board on the subject of our pending petition, but that it was not an item that is specifically slated for Board consideration. I asked him what news he had about it. He said that the Mobility Division was now looking at the petitions that were on deck for inclusion in the next “omnibus” Part 97 rulemaking. They were strategizing what petitions would go forward and which would be dismissed. He said there were several on the dismissal list and some that would be proposed in the NPRM that is currently being strategized. With respect to our Regulation by Bandwidth petition, their focus was on the relief requested in the petition “in light of the comments.” The comments on this petition were heavily, some might say overwhelmingly, negative. However, the sentiment, Bill says, is that the Mobility Division does not want to dismiss the petition. They want to know what can be salvaged from it in view of the negative comments. He noted that the objections to the petition were with respect to the regulation by bandwidth at HF, rather than at VHF and above. So he asked some questions. He said that, after Docket 04-140, Novices and Technicians, and Tech Plus licensees have significant HF privileges to operate CW in various segments and phone at 10 meters, etc. So, was it ARRL’s position that Novices and Technicians should be able to utilize any emission at all in the segments of the HF bands in which they can operate now, after 04-140? He noted that the FCC’s position in 05-235 was that the operating privileges for entry level licensees should not be significantly expanded at HF because the upgrades are not that hard, and they didn’t want to create disincentives to upgrade, etc. Bill gave me what he described as, in essence, insider trading. He said that if FCC goes with our Bandwidth petition instead of dismissing it, and if it was to apply to HF as well as VHF and above, FCC was inclined to redo the number of license classes to less than three. Since the major differences between the license classes deal with HF privileges, their thinking is that, if regulation by bandwidth at HF goes forward, they would have two classes of license; an introductory license and a full privilege license equating to the Extra Class now. The clear message was that they want a way out of this, while salvaging our concept and not dismissing our petition. Bill said that the complaints in the adverse comments were with respect to the HF bands. He said that our principal justification for the regulation of subbands by bandwidth was to encourage high speed multimedia and to make more flexible use of digital communications. Those applications that require high data rates are best suited to VHF and above. So, Bill didn’t say this outright, but FCC’s suggestion to us is that it would be perhaps a good thing to consider the modification of our Petition by having it apply to VHF and above, rather than HF at the moment. I told him that there was no specific intention on ARRL’s part by the filing of the regulation by bandwidth petition, to vastly expand the operating privileges of Novice and Tech licensees at HF. That was a product of the intervening, later decision of FCC to allow those licensees to operate CW in expanded segments of the HF bands. However, following the Docket 04-140 action, the access that those licensees have at HF would in fact be expanded by the full panoply of operating modes available to them. This worries the Mobility Division. Cross asked whether we thought that entry level licensees should have access to all operating modes in large portions of the HF segments, limited only by the bandwidth that the selected emission occupies. I asked Bill how much time we had to ponder these things. He said that they are planning now, but that if we could let him know next week how the Board wanted to proceed, that would be soon enough. I assured him that the subject of his call would be discussed at the meeting, and that I would call Bill back next week. I thanked him for calling and for his candor with us on this issue. It strikes me that we would not have gotten this call prior to President Harrison’s letter to the Commissioners recently, which asked for exactly this type of interaction before FCC does something in a particular proceeding. 73, Chris W3KD ________________________________________________________________________ Check out the new AOL.
