There are other similar satellites that I've seen reference to being in development, but other than using 145/435 for command and control, I've seen no reference to an open two-way package.
For what it may be worth, last year as part of the AMSAT-NA Engineering Task Force, I approached Eurockot about availability of a secondary launch to a high LEO. Rokot launches out of Plesetsk routinely go to that type of orbit for Kosmos and Gonets launches, and indeed Yubileiniy-1 was on one of these. The answer was far from encouraging. 73, Drew KO4MA _______________________________________________ Sent via [email protected]. Opinions expressed are those of the author. Not an AMSAT-NA member?
