Re: [amsat-bb] I want this. I want that. Here comes another FM LEO sat.

I would also vote AO40 was not to complex, it was failed by an accident. Not wishing to bring up bad memories, but two questions: Did anything other than the plug incident happen? (In other words, did any systems fail before the explosion?) Was there a backup bird built of the same design that just might be flyable if we could find a ride?
