[amsat-bb] Es’hail mind storm. !!

[David Johnson]

Hi,

Interesting idea.

Problems to overcome:

Size of dish / patch required to be flown as part of satellite
Attitude control and pointing in real time
Power management
Band width limitations 
Doppler correction
Frequency stabilty

Any more folks?

Dave, G4DPZ
