Re: [amsat-bb] Idea for more satellites in short time

[Emily Clarke <w0eec@xxxxxxxxx>]

Richard - Please quote me completely lest you start a flame war.

I'm not proposing building  a satellite that Europe coudn't use one.  Quite 
the opposite - I was cautioning against it.  And as far as building 
geosynchronous amateur satellites I would be totally against that unless 
there were three crossed linked satellites.  And even then I wouldn't be 
happy unless there were redundant backup satellites (six total).



73,

Emily
