Personally, I'm completely self-taught and \noperate a 100% home brew satellite station. My intention was to breach the \n... \"can't afford it\" ... excuse. Your point about possible congestion on \nthe bands is a very good one indeed.\n\nHave a nice day.\n\n73 John.   <[email protected]>\n...............................................................................................................................\n\n\n>From: Jeff Davis <[email protected]>\n>Reply-To: [email protected]\n>To: [email protected]\n>Subject: [amsat-bb] Re: IRB's and Satellites.\n>Date: Thu, 26 Apr 2007 17:29:52 +0000\n>\n>gOn Thu, Apr 26, 2007 at 04:39:24PM +0200, John Hackett wrote:\n> > OBSERVATIONS FROM NORWAY.   26-04-2007.\n> > INTERNET REMOTE BASE STATIONS FOR SATELLITES.\n> > Love 'em or hate 'em ...
