Robert NcHale KE6BLR has turned on PSAT for digipeating.
I have no idea if it has the power budget to support it, but we will see.
If the telemetry counter gets above 90 (minutes) then it is surviving
eclipses
See http://www.findu.com/cgi-bin/raw.cgi?call=psat,psat-1&time=1&start=12
Have fun. Try some double hops from ISS to PSAT using the path NA1SS,PSAT
If you simply used APRSAT,APRSAT, then PSAT might digi the first hop too
and then be clobbered when ISS also does it. Then the second hop will not
go via PSAT beacuse by then it is a dupe.
