Re: [amsat-bb] Es'hail-2 re-scheduled for launch in Q3/2017
Very sorry to see this fantastic new satellite getting delayed! I consider it as a major boost to use of high frequencies by satellite-radio amateurs (beyond the fact that it is a HEO sat). Well, it IS still a great opportunity to look forward to!!

We have been informed by Es'hailSat Qatar Satellite company, that the launch of Es'hail-2 with the first P4-A geostationary amateur radio transponder is shifted to Q3/2017.
It is the nature of going to space usually.
I have one exception. ISRO told my company they wanted to go 6 months earlier!!
We switched to SpaceX Falcon 9!!
