An interesting idea would be trying a FreeDV QSO via satellite. I've made a
few QSOs with it on HF and it's an interesting mode.
Obviously it's full duty-cycle, so any attempts should be limited to just a
few tests, but I'm sure it would work.
I suspect you'd need computer Doppler correction with the FDMDV modem.
The high PAPR would limit the stress on a linear transponder. The (yet
to be finalised) VHF GMSK variant might be easier to handle from a
Doppler point of view, though at a higher average power (since it's
constant envelope like FM).
