Hi Jim, KQ6EA
Well said Jim ! Considering all problems occurred AO40 was the best
satellite ever made by AMSAT and I agree with you ARISSat-1 is another
shoe box in space that is using the Amateur Radio Satellite frequencies
for a free downlink but not made for a possible easy two way Amateur
Satellite Communications.
