Since only UV supports the text mode with omnidirectional ground station antennas and this is the only linear transponder that operates over 75% of the orbit, I hope that we can fly two V transmitters and 2 U receivers. Each pair of receivers and transmitters could then connect to their gain and omni antennas via a transfer switch so that there is no single-point failure mode.

Hello Bill!
In regards to the RF distribution circuitry, I count 8 users of the 10 MHz clock. Help me out here if I missed one....
- V Transmitter
- U Receiver (maybe two?)
- L Receivers (two)
- S Transmitter
- S2 Receiver
- C Transmitter
- IHU
- Spare (for X or K beacon or a "contributing" customer)
(9 and 10) - SDX processors
