If you are licensed by a country who has a license reciprocity agreement
with the US (only 76 countries do), you may apply for a reciprocal license.  
An FCC Form 610-A (available from ARRL or FCC) must be submitted to the 
FCC along with proof of foreign licensing.

Else, if the foreign national is not a representative of a foreign government
(and if the person does not hold ambassadorial status), that person can obtain
a US Amateur Radio license by following the same examination procedures 
required of all US citizens--most US examinations include written theory/rules 
and a Morse code examination (the Morse code exam is optional for the 
codeless Technician [VHF-and-above only] license).

For further information, feel free to contact me at "bjahnke@arrl.org"
or 203-666-1541 ext. 251 (8-4 EDT).

You didn't tell us how it failed so no further comment there.  My 
Periphex carfone battery is working fine two years hence.  I DO 
quickcharge it and never trickle charge.  Perhaps you should listen

The tone is specified in the FCC rules (47 CFR 73.906) as 853 Hz + 960
Hz for 20-25 sec. The signal must be transmitted at 40% of the maximum
system level.  This signal can be used for decoders at broadcast
stations so that secondary broadcast stations can decode the EBS
messages of higher power primary broadcasters.

The current callsign on MIR is U6MIR (as of a 9/17/92 the last time I 
copied it, during the Shuttle flight).
    
You can get satellite orbital elements here, or directly from the 
Celestial BBS which can be dialed into.  One of the last 50 messages 
(I know because my local BBS only lets me have 50 at a time!) has the
latest elements PLUS the telephone number and vital statistics for this 
BBS.  I usually download them on the SPACE Roundtable on GEnie once a 
week and feed them to my tracking programs (QuikTrak 4.0 and TRAKSAT).
    
There's even a "stripper" program available on GEnie to remove everything 
except the stuff the tracking programs need.  Works well....if you're 
serious about this stuff, may I recommend you get a math coprocessor chip 
as it really speeds things up!  Best of luck, 73,

The recent solar storm (commencing abt. 28 Sept. 92) has thoroughly
trashed polar signal routes, as expected.  However, equatorial 
propagation on the low bands has been excellent.  After sunset on the
east coast, the 80 meter band has yielded contacts with FR5DX (5x9 +10db),
5Z4FO, and ZS's.  40 meters has likewise been open to the Indian Ocean
(3B8) and other Africans like C9, D2, etc.  In the morning, the Pacific
stations on 80 have included western Australia (VK6) and points in 
between.  Stations on 40 included VK6, VK8, T32, YB (crooked path across
S. Pacific..not really polar).  The UL7 beacon on 7.002 MHz (sends
constant string of the letter V) has not been widely heard in the 
southeast USA yet this season -- my guess is that long path opening is
very polar, and affected by the recent storms).
I would be very glad to get info from other 80/40 meter DX'ers regarding
any openings or expeditions.  73, Tom WB4IUX

A person has to be at least a little crazy to own or work for an amateur radio
store. They're certainly not in it for the money if they deal only with hams. 
You're likely to get the same kind of treatment when you walk in as you would 
get if you called CQ on a repeater. Either they're glad to welcome you, or 
they wish you'd go away. I've even encountered both types in the same store.
There seems little middle ground.

Oh, some people will tell you that the mere act of having a battery
in your shack - especially on the concrete floor - will cause instant
death or at least rot your balls off.  I take a slightly more moderate
position.  

A vigorously overcharged battery will emit a quantity of hydrogen
and oxygen and acid mist.  For normal use, this is not a worry.
For that matter, even in fairly abnormal use, it is not a worry.  
A quick chemistry calculation will show you just how little gas is
evolved by electrolyzing a few ounces of water over the period of
some months.  Good rule of thumb.  If you're not having to dump water 
in, no gas is coming out.

Only a few simple precautions are needed.  Don't seal the battery in
a hermetic case.  That eliminates the explosion hazard.  Keep the 
battery away from sensitive stuff so the tiny bit of acid mist that does
emit will do no harm.  A boat battery box is an excellent investment.

What you probably heard were stations attempting to access AMTOR APLink
systems. Most of these systems (AMTOR <---> Packet mailboxes) scan
several frequencies on various bands. Depending on how many frequencies
are being scanned, a complete scan could take as long as 30 to 45 
seconds.

Most APLink users attempt to link to a system by sending the
system's SELCAL repeatedly for about a minute. If the link isn't
established, they can assume:

a. The APLink isn't hearing their signal on that particular frequency

b. The APLink is being used by another amateur on a different frequency

c. The APLink is off the air entirely

If they don't succeed on the first attempt, many users will wait a minute
or two and try again. This is a bit like calling your friend's house
over and over when you keep getting a busy signal. Eventually he'll hang
up the telephone and your call will get through.

Considerate operators will give up after a couple of attempts and will
try another frequency or wait until much later. I suppose it depends
on how badly they need to access the system.  :-)

I have just purchased a good quality auto 12V battery to power my
station in an emergency.  (The "big one" may hit at any time, and I
don't want to give up the good 40 meter DX that may appear at that
time :-) )

My question is: during a charge, does a lead-acid cell such as this
emit any dangerous fumes?  I will trickle charge with no special circuit,
using a 3 amp supply on occasion for a day or two just to keep it up.
I want it to be near full charge at any given point.  I plan to use the
battery once a month to operate for a few hours (test and recharge).

The final worked list was saved on 09/19/92 at 22:48:21, SERWKD = 6071.
The 6013 that I remembered was the serial number of the last station
that made the worked list (N5VSP).
6071 is just the total number of connects, whether or not an
acknowledgement of their serial number frame was heard on board or not.
Only 456 of those had their ack frame received and got on the worked list.
The heard counter (SERHRD) is incremented each time a frame is received
from a new callsign; new meaning not in the current tnc heard buffer of
the last 35 calls heard.  If a station call is received later after he
has been scrolled out of the heard buffer, he will cause the SERHRD
counter to increment again.  The 35 call heard buffer was captured to disk
each time the SERHRD counter changed by 30 IF the PGSC was connected and
the logging script was active (which I estimate was only for about 60%
of the total robot time).  There were 717 unique calls in all of the heard
lists captured.  Stations desiring a qsl card for making only the heard
list should also send in a copy of a received QRZ beacon with their call
in it, since the logging script may not have been running at that time.
