(Similarly, I hope that William's extraordinary vision in building his transponder board might, after broad testing and examination, be validated by it becoming an 'AMSAT' off-the-shelf product. With William's approval, let's appeal for the bucks to have a team of people replicate these, test them, and set them up as temporary terrestrial repeaters around the world. We'd much more easily convince a cubesat team to include one of these if we could say one was running uninterrupted in Toronto for a year, or if we could have them do a QSO through one in a live demo!)

Hey, if William will make the boards available, I'll start building one tomorrow!!!
