Thanks David,
The latest I heard was that AMSAT-Italy was working on a transponder
and the HamTV for Columbus. Maybe someone can get in touch with Gaston
Bertels, ON4WF (ARISS Europe) or whoever runs AMSAT-It and see what
the status is.

It seems a very long time ago now, but in the dim and distant pass ESA
approved a plan to have a permanent amateur station installed inside the

PCSAT-2 did exactly that on the ISS in July 2005, however, it was returned to
Earth Sep 2006.
It requires an expensive EVA to install and there may be frequency coordination
issues with the two amateur radio stations already on the ISS.
I wonder what the capabilities of the Kibo Robot Arm are
Hi,
This was done for PCSat-2 as part of the MISSIE experiment.
The problem is that you have to GUARANTEE to NASA that the device is
inoperable during space walks which means a command uplink and several
layers of safety in the command and control.
