and ham radio operator who was the sixth private citizen to fly to the
International Space Station (ISS).
Like his father, Owen Garriott, W5LFL, who made history as the first
ham to communicate from space with radio amateurs during the STS-9
Space Shuttle mission, Richard was a ham radio pathfinder in his own
right through on-orbit experimentation, implementation of new capabil-
ities, extensive operations using many diverse operations modes, and
phenomenal educational outreach initiatives that inspired and trans-
formed the lives of tens of thousands students, worldwide.

Garriott was the most prolific ham radio operator to fly on a short
duration (<15 day) mission. During his 10 day stay on the ISS over 500
2-way voice QSOs were conducted, over a thousand SSTV images were down
linked. He communicated with tens of thousands of students in schools
around the world. Garriott also had numerous random chats with scouts
world-wide as part of the amateur radio Jamboree on the Air (JOTA).

In early January the Department of Science and Technology signed
the SumbandilaSat launch contract with Roscosmos setting the
launch date at 25 March 2009. This date was later postponed till
May but the latest is a further postponement till late July. No
reasons have been given. However rumors have it that one of the

reasons have been given. However rumors have it that one of the
main payloads is delayed.
The fact that launch will now take place on a Soyuz launcher at
Baikonur as opposed to the previous Shtil from a submarine, en-
sured that a new Interface Control Document (ICD) had to be issued.
This meant that each element of the new ICD had to be check against
the previous one and an impact report on the differences had to be
compiled. Normally the base plate modifications, various types of
vibration, and some electrical issues from the basis of the changes
but the ICD is very comprehensive and contains all elements related
to on-site safety.

>From 25 August 2008 to the present time SunSpace, with permission
from the DST and under contract to Stellenbosch University, conducted
systems tests at ISSA to ensure that the satellite is launch-ready
after its been moth balled for more than two years. All the individual
systems have been declared functional and the only outstanding items
are some control system software updates caused by the change in orbit
parameter from South-North to North-South. The updates have been
tested, work and will be uploaded within the week. Final mission
scenario testing will then be carried out and is expected to be
successful.

To switch the transmitter on, you need to send a CTCSS tone of 74.4
Hz. The order of operation is thus: (allow for Doppler as necessary):
1) Transmit on 145.850 MHz with a tone of 74.4 Hz to arm the 10 minute
timer on board the spacecraft.
2) Now transmit on 145.850 MHz (FM Voice) using 67.0 Hz to PT the re-
peater on and off within the 10 Minute window.
3) Sending the 74.4 tone again within the 10 minute window will reset
the 10 minute timer.

To switch the transmitter on, you need to send a CTCSS tone of 74.4
Hz. The order of operation is thus: (allow for Doppler as necessary):
1) Transmit on 145.850 MHz with a tone of 74.4 Hz to arm the 10 minute
timer on board the spacecraft.
2) Now transmit on 145.850 MHz (FM Voice) using 67.0 Hz to PT the re-
peater on and off within the 10 Minute window.
3) Sending the 74.4 tone again within the 10 minute window will reset
the 10 minute timer.
