Richard has the cards made up, and was handing them out at Dayton
Hamvention to those who were there. (He also had his log from ISS so
people could see their call in it.) I don't know what his schedule is
for a general mailing.

After 18 years of operation, NASA has switched off Ulysses, the space
probe designed to study the properties of solar wind, the heliosphere
magnetic field, and the solar radio bursts that can greatly affect our
gadgets, telecommunications, and every electronic system here on
planet Earth.
I know it would be expensive but on the if you spread your net wide
enough view of thinking, could we not approach commercial satellite
projects prior to launch and bung a transponder on them only to be used
when the primary mission fails? OK, so you might win some, might lose
some and I know
This sounds like the AMSAT-Intelsat deal except that the Intelsat agreement
would allow the amateur payload to operate in parallel with the primary
payload. A number of the RS series amateur satellites also operated this
way.

This is an intriguing possibility and perplexes me somewhat they (AMSAT)
hasn't mentioned it, or something similar. For instance, every launch has a
ballast load. Why is it that the ballast cannot be replaced with a cubesat?
Why aren't commercial sats required to have a amateur band transceiver

Now this makes me wonder,
When posting on this board to provoke stimulation about SATCOMMS; It appears
that posts can be more stimulated over QSL cards or who's operating the
latest in Spam Radio Du-lux than antennas or pre-amps or phasing harness'
or Polarity Switching or the latest in GAS-FET
This whole discussion relates back to Bob's proposed idea of having several
Cubesats on standby in the event that we're given a last minute opportunity
to launch.
I think that'd be the place to start.

The title of this post paints an inaccurate picture
of this joint ESA/NASA mission. Ulysses power

anymore to run its instruments and heaters to
keep its propellant from freezing. Ulysses was

Hello All,
Just a quick Question. Quadrifilar Helix or Eggbeater? All other options
considered, which would you chose?
Thanks!

Ok, so this doesn't sound like the regular ARISS QSL service... Where did you
send your card (for those who weren't at Dayton)? Is he still accepting them?

After working Simonyi in February, I sent my QSL card off to ARRL HQ and got
an NA1SS card back within several weeks.

I have an old Kenpro G5400 without computer interface and a newer Yaesu G5600B

What are the differences in the motors between these 2 series other than the

In case of the control boxes, I see the G5400 has starter motor caps, but the
