I'll just add in that I have only ever operated a satellite by handheld
antenna and an HT. I've received SSB sats on stationary antennas but never
worked them. I don't have the infrastructure to do so nor have I had the
time to set something up. I just graduated college and moved 3,000 miles

FUNcube boards and the AMSAT-NA Fox-1 boards include the capability to
transmit telemetry data modes and support a voice transponder. Not
