Hi Peter,NH6VB
I believe that Stefan,VE4NSA never worked or was listening on a HEO othervise he will be not in favour only on the Cubesat and I am sure he will pull also like me and many others for P3E
To give Stefan a demonstration of what I am stating I have sent to all of you a WAV file 3 minutes long with a QSO via AO40 in wich we are three of us (IW2ERR-i5UXJ and i8CVS) talking like into a telephone without QSB or QRM and nice audio quality for hours much better than in 20 meters because we can interrupt each other at the same time.
Sorry the QSO is in italian but it is sufficient to say that if Stefan ever worked a HEO he have missed a lot.
Also sorry that my message to Peter,NH6VB including the WAV file bounced back to me.

Thanks,
I am glad you favour HEOs. Good for you. At least the cubesat community does not bash and discriminate against your favourite satellite system. Any university and organization that puts up a cubesat is a winner for me. They are fun, challenging and use the spectrum. More power to them. I am glad AMSAT is moving along with Fox. Feel free to support the HEOs. My money is on the Cubesats.
Stefan, VE4NSA

Stefan, With all due respects, have you ever worked a HEO? I am not bashing cubesats, there is a place for them, as you say. But, have you ever worked a HEO? If not, you have missed a lot. De Peter, NH6VB

Thank you!!!!
I am so sick and tired of bashing the cubesat community. At least they are putting satellites in orbit and they ARE licensed radio amateurs with the same access to the spectrum as all of us!
