Can I pick up anything on my radio scanner?


Thanks to dedicated local Ham Radio operators of the Launch Information Service and Amateur Television System (LISATS), you can hear the NASA public affairs channel called "NASA Select" on the K4GCC ham radio repeater on a frequency of 146.940 MHz. You might also hear some of the usual "ham chatter" on this frequency.

Many shuttle missions now carry Ham Radio on board and can be heard on a radio scanner as the spacecraft passes overhead. ARISS, Amateur Radio on the International Space Station is usually found on 145.800 MHz. Please e-mail This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

Newsflash

The Pakistan Amateur Radio Society (PARS) in association with Islamabad Jeep Club (IJC) and Pakistan Academy of Family Physicians (PAFP) has started relief activities by providing food, tents and medical support to the northern flood effected areas of Nowshera, Charsadda and central Sargodha districts.

The Cellular services are down and so is the landline. (Why Ham Radio in Disaster Management)Last week, the joint team carried out survey in the north and the centre of the country and to its dismay the situation isn’t promising. Restoration of cellular services and Landlines could take months.

In order to address the communication breakage PARS in collaboration with Islamabad Jeep Club has constituted two teams. One would cater for the northern cities linking Islamabad with Peshawar, Nowshera and Charsadda. The other would link cities in the centre and would include, Sargodha, Lahore and Faisalabad and Multan.

PARS already has a 2-meter repeater in place and a weak signal whereof can be heard in these areas, but would need cross band repeaters to further increase its strength and allow penetration into the remote areas. This would result in effective communication through handhelds rather than reliance on base stations where there is an issue with electricity.

We would therefore request International and National Ham Community to provide us the following equipment, if possible.

   1. Cross band repeater radios (any brand)
       x 3  (144-430 MHz)
   2. Coaxial Cable 100 ft x3 with connectors
   3. Power supplies x 3
   4. Hi gain dual band antennas x 3
   5. Handhelds (any brand vhf 2meter) x 5

The equipment could be new or used but should in workable condition.

Please email directly ap2nk or ap2mks for further clarification and information.
