[amsat-bb] Re: How the Amateur Radio OSSI-1 Satellite Works

Unless I missed it, the LEDs appear to be just 'light'.  Had they 
turned the LEDs on and off at a defined audio rate, the signal could 
have been detected with a soundcard with a waterfall display giving an 
increase of  x10 in sensitivity.

Love the supercaps though.  (vacuum tested?)
