When GO32 was running, we were able to send and receive data at 9600 bps.
DSTAR voice. on 444 is 2400bps and data is 4800bps gsm if I am correct.
So, why would it not work via satellite other than having to get 5 kc steps
reduced to 1k or less.

But the difference there is that *anyone* can make an SSB rig. Only one
manufacturer is allowed to make AMBE codecs, and they will only sell to a
handful of approved radio manufacturers.
It is illegal to make your own DStar radio, without buying the AMBE codec
from DVSI. That sort of thing has no place in amateur radio.
