Are we talking 20 million, 100 million?\n\nLet's see, there are at best 5000 satellite ops. So, if it cost $20,000,000 we are each in it for $4000. I'm game. Now to convince 4999 of my friends. :)\n\nSeriously, you think it gets boring talking to us same guys on AO-51 each day? Try that for a giant repeater in space. That would be wide area. I know we hear that something like P3D would just cost too much, but this is a lot of dough to talk to friends across the country at drive time. The wider orbits make for more interesting conversations. Not that I don;t want to talk to you every day :)\n\n\nTom\n\n\nTom Schaefer, NY4I\[email protected]\nEL88pb \nMonitoring EchoLink node KJ4FEC-L 489389\nDSTAR Capable APRS: NY4I-15\n\n\n\nOn Oct 10, 2011, at 5:50 PM, Alan P.
