But actually once the other worldwide Universities will have the ESA/NASA/JAXA-sponsored GENSO project running, they will probably even not need our help anymore, but only our frequencies !!!
I'm doubting it, but perhaps I'm missing something:
1. University builds satellite 2. University satellite builders are either hams themselves or are endorsed by someone who has a ham radio license. 3. University sets up satellite to transmit within the amateur sub bands 4. University publishes downlink frequencies and allows other amateurs to collect TLM 5. People complain
Am I missing something between 4 and 5? Are these satellites purposely jamming other satellites? Are they going to seek out any future HEO satellites and kamikaze the rocket when it flies by? Or are the people complaining for the sake of complaining?
Last I checked Amateur Radio encouraged experimentation. Cubesats are a shining example of this. I can't comprehend how anyone can complain and consider themselves an "amateur"
