I'm curious, as someone who was involved in designing a nanosatellite. What sort of payloads would be of interest to the amateur community? When we started out, we did spend a fair bit of time looking for payload, but most things to do with transponders seemed to be somewhat unfeasible.

Hi All,
I do remember that when OSCAR-10, OSCAR-13 and AO40 were alive and well this net on AMSAT-BB was full of technical messages from W3IWI now K3IO ,G3RUH, G3WDG, ZL1AOX and many others from wich it was possible to lern the radio technique particularly in the field of RF and antennas.
By the way actually with the prolification of Microsats,Nanosats and so on the above people seems to be not anymore interested on satellite technical discussions and they abandoned the net.
Can anyone explain to me why ?
Thanks for any answere.
