I know how much the FM satellites are loved by certain segments of the AMSAT
community, and FOX-1 will serve that community beginning late next year. In
addition, many universities are building 2 meter FM satellites as part of
their aerospace engineering curriculum.
The problem with the FM satelli
The short answer to all these "why are we building FM satellites" comments

I've given a lot of thought to this over the years, and I would be
a lot more active if we had a new HEO up there, and I also think it
