Something tells me a while back it was made explicitly clear that the AMSAT-BB did not reflect the views and agenda of AMSAT-NA. Something to keep in mind.

Cubesats are the future of amateur satellite work. If you don't like that, try and find a source of cheap flights for something OSCAR-40 sized. Can you afford it? I sure as hell can't. Your only hope of getting an AO-40 size bird up is one of the "up and coming" space programmes, like Iran or Pakistan. You've missed the boat with India already. -- Gordonjcp MM0YEQ ___ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org. Opinions expressed are those of the author. Not an AMSAT-NA member?
