Space topics and amateur radio are interrelated.  So much so that the FCC
has allowed a BLANKET waiver of all its rules when rebroadcasting space
stuff.  Music is actually allowed to be played over ham freqs when NASA TV
is rebroadcast.

How?  We've not at all talked about Russian governmental policy.  We've not
talked legislation, taxes, etc.  Rather the discussion is about technology
and what was and is used.  So I fail to see how technology and politics are
linked.

Oh yeah.  That's right - it's not politically correct.  Oh shame on me for
being politically incorrect.  A pox upon me!

Fine if you want to trash everything I post just because you aren't
interested in the subject.  There are many Amsat-bb messages I am not
interested in that I trash, but that doesn't mean that the subjects
themselves are trash.  I find it interesting.  You don't.  That doesn't mean
it shouldn't be discussed.  That's called censorship.
