RESCUE RADIO: HAM RADIO FACES TYPHOON HAIYAN
Upward of 10,000 or more may have lost their lives when monster Typhoon
Haiyan also known as Typhoon Yolanda hit the central Philippines on
Friday, November 8th. Numerous others were injured and at least nine
million people were affected in some way by the monster storm. Amateur
Radio Newsline's Jim Meachen, ZL2BHF, is in Nelson, New Zealand with a
summary of what's known so far about ham radio's part in post typhoon
relief:
--
For more than a week the aftermath of monster Typhoon Haiyan, rated at
Category 5, has seen many lives lost, people injured, widespread damage,
despair and desperation.
The death toll has been put at 2,000 or so officially, even though
estimates have been much higher. A saving grace in the disaster is that
the super-storm missed more populated areas like Manila, was fast-moving
and authorities were able to evacuate some low lying areas.
In its aftermath, priority is being given to the immediate essentials of
power, communications, shelter and food. This is followed by clean water,
sanitation and disease control. But it's in the area of communications
where ham radio is doing its part.
Ramon Anquilan, DU1UGZ, of the Philippines Amateur Radio Association or
PARA says that in preparation for the typhoon that its Ham Emergency Radio
Operator or HERO network was activated early. He reports that HERO
stations using High Frequency and VHF have been relaying vital messages
helping rescue and relief authorities, and their communities. DU1UGZ says
that in every major area hit by the typhoon, and elsewhere in the
archipelago, the HERO network was in action.
Hams are providing communications at Tacloban, Eastern Samar, Cebu, Bohol,
Negros Oriental islands, Siquijor, Palo, Bantayan, Tagbilaran, Dumaguete,
Panay, Roxas, and many more places. This includes signals into the
capital city of Manila. Primary typhoon emergency relief communications
is taking place on the frequency of 7.095 MHz and hams within radio range
but not involved in relief efforts are being asked to stay clear of this
frequency for the moment.
Jim Linton, VK3PC, is the Chairman of the International Amateur Radio
Union Region 3 Disaster Communications Committee. He says that these
individuals should be commended for their efforts.
Quoting VK3PC: "They have transceivers that are mostly basic, and as yet
don't seem to have the deserved recognition from the authorities and the
non-government aid organizations who used them,"
This not the first time HERO stations have been involved in providing
emergency communications. Over the years there been many disasters in the
Philippines, including earthquakes, floods and mudslides, but none on the
scale of the current Typhoon Haiyan.
Philippines President Benigno Aquino visited Tacloban City where almost
all buildings were lost as tidal surges came through its streets. He
pledged that local authorities are to house about 45,000 families and give
them food. President Aquino said he was lost for words to adequately
describe the enormity of disaster affecting 36 provinces. He has declared
the situation to be a national calamity.
For the Amateur Radio Newsline, I'm Jim Meachen, ZL2BHF, in Nelson, New
Zealand.
--
An international relief effort is now under way with rescue workers
struggling to reach some remote areas. And once again, the frequency of
7.095 MHz is being used for post typhoon emergency relief and hams world
wide are being asked that be kept clear at this time.
Also, Google has set up an on-line Person Finder page where you can
request information about someone in the typhoons area of leave
information about a person that you might have. It's on the web at
google.org/personfinder/2013-yolanda. How long this service will be
available is not known. (VK3PC, KB7TBT, Published news reports)

RADIO LAW: INDIA FISHERMEN WANT HAM RADIO AND GPS GEAR
The Deccan Chronicle of India says that what are known as traditional
fishermen want the right to use amateur radio with both free ham gear and
GPS. This as a communications safety net when they venture out to see.
The newspaper says that these fishermen have not found any truly
affordable and reliable electronic method to send or receive communication
while fishing in deep sea, especially when they face severe cyclonic
storm. As such, they are forced to rely on what they term as unreliable
mobile phones with no guarantee of signals reaching destination or back-up
power to keep them operating.
A large number of these fishermen venture 200 miles or more from the shore
for several days at a time. Their only way to communicate their location
or safety to their family are the unreliable mobile telephones they have
now.
Because of this, fishermen have been demanding the state government
provide them with amateur radio gear and GPS equipment at a subsidy as
they cannot afford to purchase this equipment on their own. They say that
if they are equipped with amateur radio it will help to communicate to get
weather updates, find their location at sea and receive directions as to
which way they should proceed to avoid impending danger.
Currently some 70,000 fishermen from several villages along India's coast
are awaiting the response from the government on their demand. The
president of the District Fisherman Welfare Association is quoted in the
article as saying that when communication network fails during the storm,
fishermen find no source of information unless they are equipped with ham
radio and GPS to help them reach shore safely.
The question of licensing was not touched on in the news article. You can

HAM RADIO IN SPACE: ISS EXPEDITION 37 BRINGS OLYMPIC TORCH HOME
The International Space Station Expedition 37 crew has returned safely to
Earth bringing with it the Olympic torch that flew to the ISS with the
Expedition 38 crew. Those returning with the torch were Russian Commander
Fyodor Yurchikhin, RN3FI; American Astronaut Karen Nyberg and European
Space Agency Astronaut Luca Parmitano, KF5KDP. The torch will be used to
light the Olympic flame when the Winter Olympics open in Sochi, Russia.
Ironically the three returning space farers made the trip back to
Kazakhstan in the same spacecraft that ferried them to the ISS last May.

DX UP FRONT: LACCADIVES TO BE ON NOVEMBER 20 TO DECEMBER 10
In DX up front, while short notice, permission has just been granted by
India's Ministry of Telecommunications for a nine member team to activate
the Laccadive Islands between November 20th and December 10th. The group
plans to operate from Agatti Island with the callsign VU7AG with three
high power stations running CW, SSB and RTTY.
Also the call VU7KA has been issued for demonstration purposes for use on
Kavaratti Island. This call will be used only briefly when team members
make presentations to the local administration to help to educate them
about amateur radio.
Given the short notice, the team is working hard in getting things
organized and is looking to be on the air for at least fourteen days.

ENFORCEMENT: NEW MEXICO RESIDENT FINED $25,000 FOR INTERFERENCE TO POLICE
Operating on a police department frequency without a license is going to
cost a New Mexico resident $25,000. Amateur Radio Newsline's Norm Seeley
has the details:
--
The FCC has affirmed a $25,000 Forfeiture Order issued to Estevan J.
Gutierrez of Las Vegas, New Mexico. This for what the regulatory agency
terms his willful and repeated violation of Sections 301 and 333 of the
Communications Act by his operation on a frequency without authorization,
and his willful and malicious interference with licensed operations by an
emergency service.
On September 1, 2011, the Enforcement Bureaus San Diego Office issued a
Notice of Apparent Liability for Forfeiture in the amount of twenty-five
thousand dollars to Gutierrez for operation, without FCC authorization on
159.150 MHz. This is a frequency licensed to the Las Vegas, New Mexico,
Police Department. He was also accused of willful and malicious
interference with the Police Departments operations on that frequency.
In response to the NAL, Gutierrez did not deny the violations. He did
however request cancellation or reduction of the forfeiture amount based
on his inability to pay.
But in its decision to affirm the full $25,000 amount the FCC noted that
Guiterrez produced no documentation to support his claim of an inability
to pay. As such he was given the customary 30 days from the November 7th
release of the forfeiture order to pay the amount in full.
For the Amateur Radio Newsline, Im Norm Seeley, KI7UP, in Scottsdale,
Arizona.
--
If Gutierrez fails to comply within the allotted time the case may be
referred to the U.S. Department of Justice for further enforcement.

RADIO LAW: FCC REFORM - WALDEN PRAISES WHEELER
House Communications Subcommittee Chairman Greg Walden, W7EQI, of Oregon
supports new FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler's move to study FCC reform proposals
by Congress with a report due on his desk by year's end. But the
subcommittee chairman still wants action on other bills he has proposed
that would implement some of those reforms.
In a news release Walden is quoted as saying that he welcomes Chairman
Wheeler's openness to looking at ways to improve transparency and
accountability for the American people and those that have business before
the commission. Walden went on to say that in the meantime, we will
continue working to reach bipartisan agreement on the FCC Process Reform
Act, and similarly hope that the Senate will soon take up the FCC
Consolidated Reporting Act, which was unanimously approved by the House
this summer.
The Consolidated Reporting Act has supporters on both sides of the aisle.
Though it does have some Democratic opponents it is expected to most
likely to pass both the House and Senate. As its name suggests, it would
consolidate eight FCC annual reports to Congress into a single biennial
report.
The Process Reform Act prospects are somewhat less bright, although it did
pass out of the Energy & Commerce Committee on promises to work with
Democrats on some of their issues. This measure would put shot clocks on
FCC decisions and would limit the conditions the FCC could put on media
mergers. This is an aspect that Democrats are not likely to support.

RADIO LAW: SENATE COMMERCE TO LOOK AT PATENT TROLLS
The Senate Commerce Committee is looking into patent trolls. The issue is
of interest to radio as several ownership groups are fighting patent
infringement allegations from DigiMedia over digital music storage and
playback technology.
The Subcommittee on Consumer Protection, Product Safety and Insurance held
its hearing for November 7th to examine the impact of demand letters from
so-called "patent assertion entities" on small businesses, consumers and
tech firms. The hearing w considered whether legislation is needed to
provide increased protection for these individuals and groups.
Government and other experts estimate that some patent trolls can send
upward of thousands of demand letters to businesses with threats of
litigation for alleged patent infringement and include a demand for
payment. Many small business pay off, even if they haven't violated any
patents as doing so is usually less expensive than fighting it out in a
court of law. (RW)

RADIO LAW: SPOKANE RADIO STATION HIT BY COPPER THIEVES
Moody Broadcasting station KMBI AM on 1330 kHz in Spokane, Washington has

morning, November 3rd when station employees found that one of the tower
monitors was out and called police. Further investigation by an employee
revealed numerous cables had been stripped from the tower. News reports
quote the Spokane County Sheriff's Office as saying that it would cost the
station thousands of dollars to rewire and get back on the air. KMBI has
an FM operation on 107.9 MHz that was not affected. (B&C)

SWL NEWS: FLORIDA SHORTWAVE STATION TO REOPEN
Look for a big signal returning to the international shortwave bands.
This as one of the United States major transmission facilities comes back
to life. Amateur Radio's Stephan Kinford, N8WB, has the details:
--
A Florida-based shortwave facility, formerly owned by Family Radio, will
soon be back on the air. This following a sales agreement with another
United States based international broadcaster that will close its own
smaller Florida shortwave transmission site.
WYFR in Okeechobee, Florida was founded by evangelist Harold Camping. He
used to broadcast Christian programming to an international audience but
it turned off its transmitters last June. Now comes word that Family
Stations Inc. will sell WYFR to Radio Miami International, which currently
operates station WRMI.
Once the transaction is completed Family Radio programming for the
Caribbean and South America will return to shortwave via the Okeechobee
site. Radio Miami's programming currently aired on WRMI will then switch
over to the Okeechobee facility. In its announcement WRMI stated that the
station will also carry programs for other international broadcasters,
including Pan American Broadcasting's Radio Africa network.
As a result of this transaction, WRMI's 50 kilowatt transmission site in
Miami will close, and its call letters will be moved to Okeechobee. The
latter is claimed to be the largest shortwave station in the United States
by number of transmitters and antennas, according to the WRMI
announcement.
For the Amateur Radio Newsline, I'm Stephen Kinford, N8WB, in Wadsworth,
Ohio.

The exact date for the switchover to the Okeechobee has yet to be
announced. (RW)

HAM RADIO IN SPACE: ART AND HAM RADIO IN DEEP SPACE
Students at the Tama Art University in Tokyo, Japan are planning to send a
sculpture called Artsat2 Despatch along with an amateur radio payload into
deep space. This to take place sometime in mid 2014.
The sculpture, which is 50 by 50 by 45 cm was created at the university
using a 3D Printer. The ham radio portion of the payload will consist of
a CW beacon in the 435 MHz band using an omni-directional antenna.
The sculpture and ham radio gear are planned to launch as a secondary
payload along with the primary asteroid explorer Hayabusa 2. Hayabusa 2
will be making a round-trip to the C-type asteroid 1999 JU3 arriving in
mid 2018.
For hams here on Earth this mission should provide the ultimate in DX
reception challenge, especially when at its maximum distance of two
million miles from Earth.
More about this interesting combined art and science exploration exercise
is on the web at tinyurl.com/ARTSAT-DESPATCH, (Artsat-Despatch release)

RADIO FROM SPACE: ESA GOCE SPACE FERRARI DEORBITS
The European Space Agency's GOCE satellite has entered the Earth's
atmosphere, on Sunday evening, November 10th U.S. time burning up in the
process. Early estimates suggested any surviving debris is likely to have
fallen somewhere along its polar flight path through East Asia and the
Western Pacific to Antarctica.
The GOCE mission was operating in an extremely low orbit of about 140
miles above mother Earth. This was among the lowest of any scientific
satellite and required constant use of its novel electric ion engine to
stay aloft. In mid-October its fuel reserves were exhausted so its
descent into the atmosphere and burn-up was expected. .
Dubbed the "Ferrari of Space" because of its streamlined looks, GOCE is
the first E-S-A bird to make an uncontrolled re-entry in more than two and
a half decades. In its final days on-orbit several news outlets suggested
the public track at the demise of GOCE at the n2yo.com website. (ESA,

EXTRATERRESTRIAL HAPPENINGS: COMET ISON UPDATE
Looking skyward, the latest photo of comet ISON taken by NASA's Hubble
Space Telescope shows it to still be intact. Given the fact that ISON's
closest approach to the sun is not until November 28th its really not
known if ISON will survive this solar encounter or if its nucleus might
disintegrate.
According to NASA, ISON's solid nucleus is uncertain in its latest image
because it is still fairly small. The space agency says that if the
nucleus were to disintegrate, the space telescope would probably detect
evidence of multiple fragments.
In the Hubble photo, the comet's coma currently looks greenish-blue
because of gas, while the tail is reddish because of dust flowing off the
nucleus. NASA explains that the tail develops as dust particles are
forced away from the nucleus by the pressure of sunlight.
ISON is also known as the "Christmas Comet" because it will make its
closest approach to Earth on December 28th. On that day, ISON will travel
within 39.9 million miles of planet Earth. (Science Recorder, NASA)

THAT FINAL ITEM: INDIA EXPERIMENTAL APRS BALLOON PAYLOAD RETURNED
And finally this week, a follow up to an earlier story regarding a ham
radio floater balloon out of India. Here's Don Wilbanks, AE5DW:
--
The payload of the Indian amateur radio APRS balloon launched on October
13th has been successfully retrieved. It was returned to Dhruva Space on
November 3rd after it was found about 27 miles off the coast of Gangoli,
Karnataka on October 15th by the sailors of on a fishing boat.
The balloon had been launched from the Indian Institute of Astrophysics in
Bangalore and drifted into the Arabian Sea. Ham radio operators in India,
the Middle East and Africa were able to track the APRS signal, containing
real time location, altitude and other operating conditions of the flight,
for over 370 miles.
I'm Don Wilbanks, AE5DW.
--
The return of the balloon payload was made possible thanks to the
cooperation of hams that tracked its travels from launch to landing.
