Speaker A: Amateur Radio Newsline Report number 2530 with the release date of Friday, April 24, 2026 to follow in 54321. The following is a QST the FCC grants a satellite Constellation company the ability to provide cell phone service from space, a popular antenna maker returns to the ham radio market and New Zealand amateurs prepare to mark the centennial of their national organization. All this and more as Amateur radio newsline report number 2530 comes your way
Speaker B: right now from around the world. This is Newsline, Amateur Radio's first independent on the air news and bulletin service. Now reporting from Charleston, West Virginia, here's Jim Dameron, natmw.
Speaker A: We begin this week with breaking news as Newsline prepared to go to production. The US Federal Communications Commission announced it had authorized AST Space Mobile's full 248 satellite constellation to use requested parts of the radio spectrum, including those that had drawn objections from the amateur radio community. The agents of agency's move will permit AST to fulfill its goal of providing services to consumers in so called dead zones, regions without terrestrial networks, especially for emergency services. The successful application on behalf of the Low Earth Orbit Satellite System was granted on 21 April with conditions. The grant for the use of 698-960 MHz includes permission to make use of 430-440 MHz for emergency control and tracking of the satellites, a move that Amateur radio operators feared would cause interference with ham's operation. The FCC said that AST emergency telemetry use will be limited to the 430.5 MHz, 432.3 MHz, 434.1 MHz, 435 and 439.5 MHz frequencies for a duration of less than 24 hours. The SEC said in the past that interference with ham radio was unlikely. A leading US Antenna manufacturer is coming back to the ham radio marketplace following its departure last summer. Travis Lisk, N3ils, picks up the story from here.
Speaker B: Stepper, which announced last summer that it was halting production of its popular antennas for the amateur radio market, is returning to the ham radio business. A recent statement on the website of the Washington State company said that although Stepper had decided last year to focus on commercial sales, recent favorable developments in that sector are permitting the company to
