Another FM repeater ham sat, okay.
"Meme broadcasting cube satellite"? Not on amateur frequencies, please!

The unique thing about this sat is people will be able to submit "meme" images which it will downlink on 70cms. Common memes are images with some humorous text overlayed which are shared on social media.. They are especially popular with younger generations so I think this is a good way to get that segment of the population interested in ham radio.
