Seems that this is a strong argument against a "satellite radio" -- if they launch a new satellite, and it does something different, you might not have the right bands and/or modes built in.

General purpose UHF/VHF is a different story.

We had much better satellites then, in decent orbits like AO-10. So Yaesu in

channel toy sats, but nothing like the old wide linear transponders.
