USA RADIO ORIENTEERING TEAM BRINGS HOME SILVER AND BRONZE MEDALS

At the 21st International Amateur Radio Union World Amateur Radio
Direction Finding (ARDF) Championship in Liberec, Czech Republic, held
August 27 through September 2, 2023, USA competitors won a silver medal
for an individual competition, as well as two bronze team medals.

ARDF, also known as radio orienteering, is a multi-skill sport that
involves running and navigation using only a map and compass.

Competitors use a 2-meter (144 MHz) or 80-meter (3.5 MHz) radio
receiver to locate multiple transmitters hidden in a forest. The sport
directly applies to important activities such as search and rescue,
wildlife tracking, airborne and seaborne navigation, and
communications. The competition at the championship in Liberec involved mountainous terrain, intricate navigation challenges, periods of rain,
and elite racing.

The USA fielded its largest team ever, including 21 athletes, with
seven competing in a world championship for the first time. The (IARU)
and Czech Radio Club hosted the event in the mountainous region of
North Bohemia, with 28 countries and nearly 400 racers attending.

Ruth Bromer, WB4QZG, won a silver medal in the W65 category during the
3.5 MHz "foxoring" event that combines orienteering and transmitter
(fox) hunting. Nadia Scharlau, KO4ADV, and Natalia Leoni earned a
bronze team medal in the W55 category 144 MHz classic competition.
Several USA athletes also finished within the top 10 results in nearly
all the classes, including two fourth - place finishes by Scharlau.

Scharlau was thrilled with the results. "All our newcomers performed
beyond our expectations. The courses were extremely hard. We all got
along and supported one another. Most importantly, almost everyone
expressed their determination to improve and come back to compete
again," said Scharlau.

ARRL's ARDF Committee Chair Charles Scharlau, NZ0I, who also raced,
echoed the positive take on the USA team, stating, "They successfully
navigated well-designed courses on rugged terrain against a field of
skilled and experienced competitors. The Czech Republic is an ideal
place to hold the world championships. They have great maps, excellent
venues, and they know how to put on a world-class event," he said.

The USA Radio Orienteering Championship will be held in Michigan on
October 7 - 13, 2024. Team USA will select its team members for the
2025 USA Championship, and that team will travel to Lithuania in 2025
to compete in the 22nd World ARDF Championship.

A complete list of the 2023 results can be found at https://vysledky.ardf2023.cz/. <https://vysledky.ardf2023.cz/>

NORTH CAROLINA SCHOOL CONTACTS THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION

On August 28, 2023, students at Bowman Middle School in Bakersville,
North Carolina, talked to NASA Astronaut Stephen Bowen, KI5BKB, who as
on board the International Space Station (ISS).

For months, 22 students had been preparing for a 10-minute window to
ask Bowen about his time and experiences on the ISS. They were able to
ask 13 questions, like, "What is it like to be in space?" and, "Is the
crew doing any research on diseases that affect humans?"

Section Manager of the ARRL North Carolina Section Marv Hoffman, WA4NC, presented the Supporting, Upgrading, Growing Amateur Radio (SUGAR)
Award to the school and its science, technology,

engineering, and mathematics (STEM) teacher, Dan Hopson, for
arranging the ISS contact.

Hopson said, "The waiting and static, are suspenseful but when you hear
the man's voice or that person's voice come over the air, the kids know
this is really happening."

Bowen, returned to Earth with SpaceX Crew-6 on September 5.

US Congresswoman Virginia Foxx (NC-05) also attended the event. She
called the experience "a stellar opportunity." In a recent letter to
her constituents in North Carolina, Foxx wrote, "On Monday, I traveled
to Bakersville in Mitchell County to meet with students, staff, and administrators of Bowman Middle School - as well as to view the
school's International Space Station (ISS) contact project. As part of
the project, students were able to ask questions in real time via ham
radio to Steve Bowen, a NASA Astronaut who successfully traveled to the
ISS on March 3 of this year. This impressive event was one that these
students will surely remember as they continue their educational
journeys. Congratulations to all who made this event, and learning
opportunity, such a success."

ARISS is a cooperative venture of international amateur radio societies
and the space agencies that support the ISS. In the US, participating organizations include NASA's Space Communications and Navigation (SCaN) program, the ISS National Laboratory -- Space Station Explorers, ARRL <http://www.arrl.org/ariss>, and AMSAT.

SEPTEMBER IS NATIONAL PREPAREDNESS MONTH

September 2023 has been proclaimed National Preparedness Month to raise awareness of the importance of being prepared for sudden disasters and emergencies.

President Biden's proclamation issued on August 31, 2023, stressed
the need to work together to help prepare for and recover from
disasters.

The proclamation stated, "In America, we pride ourselves on emerging
from every crisis stronger than when we entered it. That is because our
people are resilient -- and when we invest in preparing them for
disasters seen and unforeseen, we can meet every challenge together."

Read President Biden's full proclamation for National Preparedness
Month here. <https://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/documents/proclamation-national-preparedness-month-2023#:~:text=NOW%2C%20THEREFORE%2C%20I%2C%20JOSEPH%20R.%20BIDEN%20JR.%2C%20President,hereby%20proclaim%20September%202023%20as%20National%20Preparedness%20Month.>


ARRL Director of Emergency Management Josh Johnston, KE5MHV, said
National Preparedness Month is a good time for hams to make sure they
are ready for emergencies. Johnston offered the following advice:
"During the month of September, we encourage hams to check their
preparedness and ensure they are ready for any type of event. Check
your go-kit, charge your batteries, and ensure everything is working
properly and ready to go if the need arises. The need could be right at
home, and your backup gear or go-kit may be all you have to get on the
air."

Johnston also advised hams to check more than radio gear, stating,
"Make sure you have enough food and water to get by for a period of
time. Have your medications listed, and pack that list in your go-kit
or somewhere you will have it available. Prepare for anything. It is
important to make sure your family is safe before you begin any
possible activation."

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has announced that their
2023 Ready Campaign's theme, "Take Control in 1, 2, 3," focuses on
preparing older adults in communities that are disproportionally
impacted by all-hazard events.

FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell stated, "With the Atlantic hurricane
season now underway, it is imperative that we advocate for the
well-being of our nation's older adults and champion them as valued,
honored, and respected members of our communities."

Emergency managers, and all those who work with and support older adult communities, now have access to new FEMA web pages in English (Ready.gov/older-adults) <https://www.ready.gov/older-adults>and
Spanish (Ready.gov/es/adultos-mayores <https://www.ready.gov/es/adultos-mayores>). For information on helping
people with disabilities prepare for disaster events, visit Ready.gov/disability (English) <https://www.ready.gov/disability>or Ready.gov/es/discapacidad

ARRL PODCASTS

On the Air
Sponsored by Icom <http://www.icomamerica.com/en/>

The cover story of On the Air's September/October 2023 issue,
"Foxhunting Basics," doesn't have anything to do with chasing down a
woodland creature. Foxhunting is a radio direction-finding activity
that you can enjoy with a radio club or group, or even with just one
other friend -- and they don't even have to be a ham! Rob Zielfelder,
N1NUG, explains how to get started with a couple of handheld radios and
a directional antenna that you can make from inexpensive hardware store materials. One player hides somewhere with a radio, and sends
intermittent transmissions, while the other player tracks them with the
help of the radio's signal meter and a map. Listen to this month's
episode for more information on how to join the fun.

ANNOUNCEMENTS

The Collins Amateur Radio Club station <https://www.qrz.com/db/w0cxx#club%20station%20pictures>, W0CXX, in
Cedar Rapids, Iowa, is planning three special events to celebrate the
90th anniversary of Collins Radio. Arthur A. Collins <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthur_A._Collins> (1909-1987) founded
Collins Radio Company in 1933 and produced shortwave equipment before
supplying equipment for the commercial broadcast industry. The company
also built radios for amateur use, including the KW-1, KWS-1, KWM-1,
KWM-2/2A, and KWM-380, as well as the classic S line consisting of the
75S-3A, 32S-3, 51S-1, 30S-1, and 30L-1. After several mergers and
acquisitions, the company began producing avionics for the aviation and aerospace industries and is now Collins Aerospace, a subsidiary of
Raytheon Technologies. On September 9, 2023, W0CXX will host a special
event station celebrating Arthur Collins' birthday, from 14:00 UTC to
20:00 UTC. On October 14, 2023, a special event station will be in
operation from 14:00 UTC to 20:00 UTC to celebrate the 90th anniversary
of Collins Radio. On November 18, 2023, a third special event station
will operate from 15:00 UTC to 21:00 UTC to celebrate the 40th
anniversary of the club's charter. More information is available on the
club's website <https://www.w0cxx.us/> .

THE K7RA SOLAR UPDATE

Tad Cook, K7RA, of Seattle, Washington, reports for this week's ARRL Propagation Bulletin, ARLP036:

Seven new sunspots emerged this week: one on September 2, two on
September 3, two more on September 4, one on September 5, and one on
September 6.

The average daily sunspot number was up from 78.7 to 95.4, while the
average daily solar flux decreased from 140.9 to 137.6.

SDO/HMI]

Geomagnetic activity was higher. On September 2, the planetary A
index was 38 when Earth moved through a high-speed solar wind. In
Alaska, the college A index at Fairbanks was 59.

The average daily planetary A index increased from 7 to 15.4, and the
average middle latitude A index rose from 8.9 to 16.3.

Predicted solar flux is 150, 155, 155, and 150 on September 7 - 10; 140
on September 11 - 13; 145, 150, 150, and 155 on September 14 - 17; 150,
155, and 150 on September 18 - 20; 145 on September 21 - 22; 150 on
September 23 - 24; 145 on September 25; 140 on September 26 - 27; 135
on September 28 - 30; 130, 135, 130, and 135 on October 1 - 4, and 140
on October 5 - 6.

Predicted planetary A index is 12, 10, 5, and 5 on September 7 - 10; 8
on September 11 - 13; 10, 8, 12, 8, and 8 on September 14 - 18; 5 on
September 19 - 22; 12 on September 23; 5 on September 24 - 27; 8, 12,
5, and 12 on September 28 through October 1; 12, 10, 12, and 10 on
October 2 - 5, and 5 on October 6 - 10.

I observed some interesting 12-meter propagation via PSK Reporter while
using FT8 at 1745 UTC on September 4. My signal was received only over
a narrow, 300-mile band hugging the east coast from Maine to Florida.
The signals were between 2,200 - 2,500 miles away, and nowhere else.

Three hours later, at 2045 UTC, the reception reports along the coast
expanded to 600 miles, and then 2,000 - 2,600 miles.

Later, at 2300 UTC, there was the same pattern, but it was a 200-mile
band spanning 2,300 - 2,500 miles wide.

The next day, at 1700 UTC, there was an arc from Virginia to south
Texas stretching 1,700 - 2,300 miles wide. At 1715 UTC, it drifted to a coverage of 1,750 - 2,600 miles.

Before FT8 and PSK Reporter, there was no practical way to observe
propagation.

Sunspot numbers for August 31 through September 6, 2023, were 77, 83,
77, 79, 100, 121, and 131, with a mean of 95.4. The 10.7-centimeter
flux was 139.9, 135.8, 131.2, 130.5, 136, 142.9, and 147.1, with a mean
of 137.6. Estimated planetary A indices were 6, 12, 38, 25, 8, 11, and
8, with a mean of 15.4. Middle latitude A index was 8, 15, 25, 28, 14,
14, and 10, with a mean of 16.3.
