EchoLink ARISS Reunion Island ISS contact 25Feb 1441 UTC

EchoLink feed ARISS Reunion Island ISS contact
On Monday, 25 February 2008, starting at approximately 14:44 UTC,
there will be a contact between the ISS and the College Reydellet,
Saint-Denis, Ile de La Reunion, France.

This is a direct contact with the ham radio ground station FR5CY/P and
Leopold Eyharts FX0STD/KE5FNO on the ISS. At this time we believe to
get the audio from this contact via Skype to feed into EchoLink.
Please join us in listening to this event.

The audio for this event will be fed into the EchoLink *AMSAT* (101
377) and *JK1ZRW* (277 208) servers by Tony VK5ZAI.

Where it looks at this time that we get the audio from this contact
via Skype, it is unlikely that the audio from this event will also be
fed into the IRLP Discovery Reflector 9010. We hope to have good two
way audio from this contact. So far, with previous Skype feed
contacts, we had good audio through Skype to get the audio from
schools into our EchoLink conference rooms .


French astronaut Leopold Eyharts
As we do normally, as soon as audio is suitable for transmission over
amateur radio, we may be able to start feeding audio of set up
activities from about 10 to 25 minutes prior to the start of the
actual contact into EchoLink for listeners who enjoy listening in on
these proceedings.

Please note that there are automatic breaks in the audio transmission
every 2.5 minutes during the event and while we listen to preparations
going on for this contact. Each audio break is approximately 1 second
long. Please configure your systems to not time out during times of
inactivity or ongoing audio transmissions.

For everyone's information and future reference. When any ARISS event
can be supported through the IRLP "Discovery" Reflector 9010, audio is
automatically streamed to the Internet.

It is then available via the "Discovery" Reflectors companion web site
www.discoveryreflector.ca . Once on its main page, select "Live
Streaming Audio" (left side bar) and follow the prompts.

More directly the URL is as follows:
www.discoveryreflector.ca:8000/listen.pls

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