Canberra begins rural telecoms review
A committee has been established for the next review of telecommunications
services in regional, rural and remote areas of Australia.
The Regional Telecommunications Independent Review Committee is convened
every three years to examine regional telecommunication services.
Six members have been appointed to the committee, which brings a wealth of
experience in the telecommunications sector and an extensive understanding
of regional Australia.
"This is a fantastic opportunity for those in the regions to have their say
on how they use telecommunication services and the issues that affect them,"
said Minister for Regional Communications Senator Bridget McKenzie.
"The review will examine regional telecommunications issues closely and
examine how rural Australians can maximise the economic and social benefits
that next-generation telecommunication services can provide."
The review will commence shortly and all rural Australians are encouraged
to participate.
The committee will shortly call for submissions and will undertake public
consultations in regional and rural areas later in the year. It is expected
to report to government by the end of September 2018.

Last week we told you of probably VK's first Foundation Members net using
the catchy moniker 'F-TROOP.'
Now from the west wing comes news of VK's longest RUNNING 'new comers net.'
Since 2011, VK6's own Onno VK6FLAB has been running F-TROOP, for new and
returning hams. So much so, that the WIA has awarded Onno in the past for
his commitment to Foundation Licensees.
In this time, the net has been run more than 360 times.
It has close to 500 contributing callsigns and this year expects to reach
its 4,000th contact.
The net runs Saturday mornings, from 00:00-01:00 UTC and can be heard across
the world.
And it's not just VK6 that participate, but regular call-ins from across VK,
the US, and the UK.
It goes out:
- In VK6 on VK6RLM, 146.750 MHz,
- via EchoLink Conference *VK3JED*, node 42840,
- via IRLP node 9558
- via AllStarLink node 28608 (VK6ZGN), and
- via AllStarLink node 42732 (VK6-HUB).
If you'd like to talk about Amateur Radio, if you've just got your license,
if you're shy, or you just want a chat, drop in and say "Hi".
The net is run as a spoke and hub, which means you only need to remember
two callsigns, yours and that of net control, who, as their name suggests,
control or keep the conversation flowing by asking for check ins and
comments.
"How to Participate" along with Stats (including the log) can be accessed
in the "Stats" link from the F-Troop Web Page:

All Hand On Deck...
This weekend you don't need to 'go down to the sea in ships' to participate
in a fun 'world wide event.'
It's MUSEUM SHIPS WEEKEND.
Ham stations will work from a wide variety of museum ships that include
submarines, aircraft carriers, battleships, there is a Civil War Ironclad
Gunboat and a concrete hulled merchant ship from WW1 to name but a few
in this 'on air flotilla.'
The Rockhampton and District Amateur Radio are operating call sign VK 4 GLA
from HMAS Gladstone during the International Museum Ships Weekend 2-3 June
Ray VK4FRAL a member of the RaDAR club will be operating the club station
from the museum ship and wants all radio operators to participate in the
international event.
HMAS Gladstone is the only registered ship in Australia taking part.
There is a great article about the event in the Gladstone Observer
that can be found at the link below.

Hello, this is Marcus, vk5wtf with this week's board comment.
What a crazy few months I have had. I was looking at my log book the other
day and I could see how busy I have been with the lack of contacts. The
biggest thing I have done this year is spend a few weeks working on WSPR,
testing skip distance with 150 mW.
But... I'm also starting to hit a slump, some of you out there will have
been through it before, and some of you listening might be going through it
now. Last time I was off air for 8 years.
What can I do this time, well, going to events like the WIA Convention two
weeks ago, and having a chance to see how others enjoy the hobby. Oh, and a
big thanks to Rex, VK7MO, I was like a kid being allowed to play with a
really expensive toy when I worked USA via 10 GHz EME.
It got me thinking, what can I do that's different and exciting? What can we
all do to help others? Do you have a great story about what kept you going
and keen, or have you helped someone else keep their interest alive?
If you think it's big enough, send it to AR Magazine for publishing, if not,
share on social media, or send them to me, vk5wtf@wia.org.au
vk5wtf, signing off.

Help requested to monitor for signals from Chinese Lunar sats
After their launch on May 20, LJ 1 and LJ 2 were maneuvered onto a track
to the Moon.
Several amateurs received telemetry from the satellites, but now LJ 1
appears to have encountered problems.
Please try and monitor DSLWP-A on 435.425 and 436.425
They lost the contact of satellite A on S band after an orbit adjustment.
If operating, 435.425 MHz should be 500bps GMSK and JT4 alternately.
436.425 MHz should be 250 bps GMSK. Both transmit once in 5 minutes.

IARU R1 highlights threat to higher ham radio bands
In issue 77 of the free IARU Region 1 VHF newsletter, the Chair of
VHF-UHF-uW committee Jacques ON4AVJ highlights the threats to vital
amateur radio spectrum
"In less than a year we will have our interim meeting about the use of
the spectrum above 30 MHz We have to face some challenges. I want to
invite all Member Societies to think about how to promote, defend and use
our frequencies," he said.
"They are wanted by others, both government and commercial, users.
So this is a wake-up call to be aware that if we not are using those bands
we will lose them.
Like some have said: 'use them or lose them' and "HF is not the only bands
for ham radio, but they are the easiest to use".

South Africa gets 100 kHz at 5 MHz (60m)
On Friday, May 25, ICASA published the National Radio Frequency Plan 2018
in which amateur radio was allocated 100 kHz on a shared basis in the
60 metre band as well as channel 5290 kHz for the 5 MHz propagation
research project
The South African Radio League reports:
The National Radio Frequency Plan is a nearly 300-page document which
covers the entire radio frequency spectrum. The plan is in Government
Gazette 41650 which will from next week be available from the Government
Printer's website under general notice 266. The SARL will carefully
consider all the amateur allocations and ensure that a band plan is in
place.
The spectrum 5350 to 5450 kHz is now available to all licensed radio
amateurs on a shared non-interference basis, the SARL Council is working
on the 60 m band plan. Council will publish the band plan as soon as
possible and then operation on 60 metres can start.
In addition, the channel 5290 kHz has been allocated for WSPR beacons
deployed in the SARL Propagation Research project and members can continue
to use this frequency.
EmComm antenna supports mounted at Wahkiakum HS
The County Sheriff's Department of Emergency Services teamed up with the
Wahkiakum School District, Wahkiakum County PUD and the Wahkiakum Amateur
Radio Club to get one step closer to being able to deal effectively with
"the big one."
The step was to hang pulleys and ropes at the baseball field so that
emergency antennas can very quickly be hoisted and used to facilitate
communications from that county out to anywhere else in the world when
the Volcano 'blows it's top.'
The next step will be to test the system from 11:00 a.m., Saturday June 23
to 11:00 a.m., Sunday June 24 during Amateur Radio Field Day.
Many communications modes will be tested using five antennas and stations,
including Morse Code, FM simplex voice, single sideband, PSK31, FT8, MFSK16.

WIRELESS WEATHER
Lunar eclipses and climate change
Strange but true:
You can learn a lot about climate change by watching lunar eclipses. At
the 46th Global Monitoring Annual Conference in Boulder, Colorado,
a climate scientist announced new results from decades of monitoring.
They suggest that Earth's clear stratosphere is contributing about as much
to recent warming as the global increase of greenhouse gases.

WW SPECIAL INTEREST GROUPS --- DIGITAL
Many amateurs are experimenting with various digital voice modes, such as
Yaesu System Fusion C4FM, D-STAR and DMR etc.
Well there is also a digital voice mode for HF radio operations too, FreeDV.
While text based HF digital modes are common, FreeDV is the first new VOICE
mode for HF since SSB was introduced in the 1950s and 60s.
David, VK5DGR, has just released the latest FreeDV 700D mode. This uses a
700 bit/s speech voice codec, powerful forward error correction, and a new
modem to send digital speech over HF radios.
Testing of FreeDV 700D has demonstrated that it is outperforming SSB on
poor channels.
Here is a demo of SSB, followed by FreeDV 700D, on a poor quality 3,200 km
path between Adelaide and the Bay of Islands, in New Zealand.
http://rowetel.com/700d_ssb.wav
You can run FreeDV using any PC set up for digital modes, using the
FreeDV 1.3 GUI program, which you can download from freedv dot org
http://freedv.org.
Australian FreeDV activity is on 7.177 and 14.236 MHz
You can coordinate FreeDV QSOs using the FreeDV QSO finder on qso.freedv.org
http://qso.freedv.org
So why not try FreeDV, and join us in experimenting with this exciting and
powerful new mode on the HF bands!

HAMNET amateur radio network is growing
DARC report the number of nodes and link routes for the HAMNET amateur
radio network is rising
Hamnet is a high-speed digital radio network that interconnects automated
ham radio stations and its services, such as Packet Radio,
Allstarlink/EchoLink/ IRLP, APRS, Paging and Amateur Television
using radio links on the higher bands like 13 cm, 6 cm and 3 cm.
A Google English translation of the DARC post reads:
"There were 719 links in 2017 and in 2018 821 were counted."
There is also an increase of the Hamnet entrances reported on 13 cm,
6 cm and 9 cm.

Ham kids build, learn tech skills
The Xenia Gazette reports young people were taught how to solder and built
their own technology kits at Hamvention
The amateur radio convention's Youth Tech area, sponsored by Dayton Amateur
Radio Association, provided a space for youth ages 9-18 to build their own
technology kits.
"The idea here is to teach kids skills such as soldering, which has been
pretty much lost by recent generations kids don't grow up knowing how
to do that anymore," Jeff KD 8 SHF, Chair of the Youth Tech Committee, said.
"So it teaches them skills on how to solder and at the same time they get
to build some kits that teach different principles."
He pointed out a boy working on a wireless Tesla speaker.
"Essentially when he's done with it, he can plug it into any audio source
such as his phone," he said. "It's a perishable skill that kids are losing
today because they don't grow up doing this," he continued. "This is a way
to re-instill those skills, because they're still very useful skills."
