[amsat-bb] Re: [SPAM] Six Amateur Radio Satellites to Launch in March

[David - M0ZLB]

Thanks for the links Bruce, I too couldn't find any frequency info after Trevor's initial posting!
   
  Sadly I see that with the exception of Delfi, everything else is digital. Surely it is imperative that we get more easy sats up there for the newbies to cut their teeth on and then progress! With the loss of FO-29 to virtually everyone out of the JA footprint, its becoming a specialised hobby - there is a need to get back to basics here I would have thought!

  I think what seems to be rubbish to you is directed at different
audiences: the local media, colleagues in the university and funding
organizations, for example, none of whom are interested in
frequencies.

Happily, we hams have the summarizing website of Ralf Wallio, W0RPK,
http://showcase.netins.net/web/wallio/CubeSat.htm

Frequency information is also available from IARU:
