Now be kind! AMSAT-NA may want to send up another satellite on that
steam engine in the near future.

:-D
It always amazes me that the Russians carry a rocket on the back of a
train to the launch site, then launch it on time and then land the crew
on hard ground in what seems to be a very amateur and haphazard fashion
yet it seems to work very well.
Here, if a bird farts in the wrong direction within 30 miles of Kennedy
Space Center, the whole launch is scrubbed!
Maybe we should just get the Russians to do it for us!

Just to add to this, In the western part of Canada / USA I've seen various
mobile all mode 70 cm rigs on sale at swap meets for a few hundred dollars
(some less than $200.00 for IIRC)?with no takers.???I supsect the avalabity
of used rigs like the Icom 706 MKIIG and others that include 70 cm along
with other bands has put a serious dent in the market for such radios.???The
DC to daylight rigs that include 70 cm, are also likely to be newer, in
better shape, have more avaliable accessories, be more likley to be able to
be fixed by the manufacuter?etc..?? IMHO even if the receivers on the mono
band mobile?rigs are better than the newer DC to daylight rigs, i'm not
convinced this really matters as much for sattelite use as it would for
digging out terristeral DX from the noise floor from an intermod prone
location such as a mountain top transmitter site.
The classic sattelite rigs such as the FT 736's and used Icom 910's etc seem
to command much higher prices.

They still command a fair price over here. :(

What is even more asthonishing is they still use Gagarine era lighter fuel
rocket but they never failed (or nearly). Couple of years ago i
was aboard a Tupolev 144 USSR military plane converted to a civilian plane
and i was impress with the "no frills" aboard...decor was
minimal the back of the seats where open and we can see the green seat
frame. This plane was bound to Cuba manned by Russian pilot with the
Russian fur aviation cap with flap over the ears. I'm not an aviation expert
but i think after take off a civilain plane reach the cruising
altitude gradually but this pilot manage to climb his plane like a rocket.
It was the worse experience i saw for ears pression blockage in
my life even an old lady was holding 2 glass over each ears as the flight
attendant recommend her...Still puzling me about the benefits
after those years just try the trick on your next flight and report your
results here.
