Pittwater to Coffs Ocean Race Broadcast

G'day All,

I'll be giving it another go and will be attempting to broadcast the HF Comms for "Pittwater to Coffs Harbour Ocean Race 2008" - (Race details http://www.pittwatertocoffs.com.au/). This race starts Jan 2nd 2008

Similar to The "Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race" they use 6516 khz (Primary) and 4483 khz (alternative) as race freq. The scheduled Skeds for position and weather reports can be found at the bottom of this post.

My Broadcast will start shortly after the Race has start or even slightly before. You can hear the broadcast from this blog above or you can go in directly to my USTREAM URL for the broadcast:

http://ustream.tv/channel/pw2ch-ocean-race

***** CALL FOR MORE BROADCASTER *****

If there is anyone else who would be interested and willing to set up a broadcast and cover the race frequencies using USTREAM.TV as its free and fairly easy to setup and does not require any software to be install perse as it uses Flash program to broadcast sound and video. You can opt to broadcast just sound or both sound and video.

If you are willing to setup a broadcast for the whole approx 2 day race or just even for the Skeds, could you please let me know via mark__rutherford@hotmail.com (please note the double underscore).

The more the merrier as during Sydney to Hobart Race, the HF Propagation was poor at times, and if we can get people close to the race as well as interstate for the skip the better chance that one of the other broadcasts would the better to listen to.

One final note for those setting up a USTREAM TV broadcast, I've just created mine, and when it asked for the BROADCAST name of the show it spat the dummy at the word "Pittwater". So For the show name, try using hyphen or abrev such as PW.

The 0005 AEDT sked had nothing of interest to report.

0045 Wild Oats attempts to raise JBW and Tasmania Race Control to inform them that they are
at / near the Mandatory Reporting from 37* 15'South (Green Cape). However HF radio conditions
were very poor between Wild Oats and JBW. But i do believe they finally sorted it out:

Sydney Hobart Yacht Race 2007



I will be attempting to broadcast the Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race HF Radio Comms.

I will be monitoring the primary race frequency 6516 khz USB.

Unless there is lots of action the frequency will normally be quiet. The following is the details
of the skeds which will occur on primary race frequency: 6516 khz

2005 AEDT Dec 26th 2007
0735 AEDT 1705 AEDT Dec 27th 2007 onwards

JBW will commence transmission on 6516 khz two minutes prior to sked time with a long tuning call
and contact Hobart Race Control.

Vessel will report when called: its LAT/LON in DEGREES and WHOLE MINUTES (not decimal degrees) as
at:

2000 AEDT Dec 26 2007
1700 AEDT Dec 27th 2007 onwards


If JBW does not repeat vessels NAME and LAT/LON or is incorrect, vessel shall stand by to end of
sked.

Listening Schedule will be performed on 4483 khz at 0005 each day from 27th Dec 2007 until 2
January 2006. Boats that have not reported in from the previous schedule will be called to make
a report.

Weather schedule will be conducted on 6516 khz each day from 27th Dec 2007 to 2nd Jan 2008 at
1205 AEDT.

Mandatory Reporting from 37* 15'South (Green Cape):
1. Assess HF Radio is operational and has a signal strength fit for the ensuring purpose
2. Required number of liferafts are on board
3. Engine and Batteries are operational
4. boat and crew are in satisfactory condition to continue.
5. Skipper has comprehensively considered the weather forecasts and considers boat and crew are

This is very interesting in that I found this while monitoring 6516 khz (USB) which is the primary
race frequency for Sydney to Hobart Race. I hope this station does not interfere with the race
primary radio communication channel.

The bands are very noisy to day, My usually check is with he Time Code Channels and only 15Mhz
was barely receivable. I caught Search and Rescue being organised via 12.290MHz Australia SAR
was calling for any vessel within 4 hours of LAT/LON to call in via HF or via Sat phone ASAP.
But nothing else heard for a while so I've moved back to SWL to see what I can get on such a poor
raining morning :)
