There may be a Satellite opportunity for a ham radio RX only payload. No TX allowed.
Any ideas? It will be recoverd one year later.
So the object will be actually physically recovered from space. Have the parts been selected for the Eagle yet? Maybe this is a way to put up some DSP chips, or capacitors err, whatever other devices you guys are contemplating, power them up during the test, and then check them out later under a microscope to see how they do?
Receive only, hmm, how about this. I have zero idea how hard this would be to do, but what about a receiver to create an 'RF noise pollution' map. Something like the light pollution maps they have for the astronomers. This is to create a visual aid to highlight the plight of poor suffering radio operators and the ever rising noise levels on the radio in the cities.
