[amsat-bb] Full duplex.

I agree with Howard.

Hi Robert

This is great stuff and would be a good link (or download) to add to the AMSAT webpage for newbies (like me!)

I agree it is especially clear and well written. My only caveat is that I personally feel that the rejection of full duplex capability in the paper promotes blind transmission for longer periods than necessary creating QRM for others. Thinking back to when I cut my teeth, I would have found it particularly frustrating not knowing if I was making it.

Just my opinion, and the author is to be applauded for his efforts.
