Hi Domenico (and others)
Delphi-C3 was the exception to the rule, the satellite was build by students that where also radio amateurs and when the science missions where done they gave us a transponder. Unfortunately we couldn't use it for a long period because of problems with the uplink circuit.
I also made a couple of 2 way QSO's via DO-64 transponder.
I hope Delfi-n3xt will also have a transponder that will be available for a longer time.

Hi Trevor, M5AKA
Delfi-C3 was not of interest for the Satellite Amateur Radio community because it performed mainly technology demonstration experiments for the space industry in the Netherlands and not for our use.
