problem is you are dreaming of reliving a time in history when we were fortunate to have launches that were reasonably priced. today, we take what is free and if that means proliferation of cubesats and nonosats so be it. if you are willing to pay for a heo launch, let your favorite amsat know and they will construct a heo for you to launch. otherwise you should stop hampering the dreams and aspirations of those building launchable satellites today. history might repeat itself but not without a lot of money. 73...bruce Sent from my iPhone On Oct 21, 2011, at 8:54 PM, "i8cvs" <domenico.i8...@tin.it> wrote: > Hi Peter,NH6VB > > I believe that Stefan,VE4NSA never worked or was listening > on a HEO othervise he will be not in favour only on the Cubesat > and I am sure he will pull also like me and many others for P3E > > To give Stefan a demonstration of what I am stating I have sent > to all of you a WAV file 3 minutes long with a QSO via AO40 in > wich we are three of us (IW2ERR-i5UXJ and i8CVS) talking like > into a telephone without QSB or QRM and nice audio quality > for hours much better than in 20 meters because we can interrupt > each other at the same time. > > Sorry the QSO is in italian but it is sufficient to say that if Stefan > ever worked a HEO he have missed a lot. > > Also sorry that my message to Peter,NH6VB including the WAV > file bounced back to me. > > 73" de > > i8CVS Domenico > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Stefan Wagener" <wagen...@gmail.com> > To: "nh6vb Scheller" <nh...@msn.com> > Cc: <w...@charter.net>; "amsat-bb" <amsat-bb@amsat.org> > Sent: Friday, October 21, 2011 11:25 PM > Subject: [amsat-bb] Re: SatPC32 version 12.8b is released > >> Thanks, >> >> I am glad you favour HEOs.
