[amsat-bb] AISAT APRS payload on PS4 Platform

[Ron VE8RT]

Hi Nitin,

   I'm slowly setting up for satellite APRS as I believe it may be the
best option for very short emcomm messages to/from our isolated
northern communities (HF has been useless at the bottom of the solar
cycle).  Another APRS satellite is great news.  Thanks!
