I say keep it in linear mode all the time because the Amsat-na board of directors don't want to build linear satellites. They only want single channel FM satellites that sound like a circus. Fox will probably sound the same way.

Vince, we've been over this ground before:
http://www.amsat.org/amsat/archive/amsat-bb/100day/msg83515.html
to which you actually sent me an apology in response (which I still have). Have things changed since then, or do you just feel liking fomenting discontent, again?
The BOD would like nothing better than to launch a high orbit transponder, but it's not within our capability right now, due to lack of funding and lack of technical volunteers. Your misrepresentations of the BOD aren't helping your assumed cause or AMSAT at all.
