Arissat will be fun, but objects launched from the ISS don't stay in orbit
all that long. The linear transponder is going to have to compete for time
with all the other downlink  modes & experiments the bird can do.  I'm
thinking the linear transponder probably won't be turned on much, because
it might upset the FM'ers.

It is a clever device.  I've never been clear as to why AMSAT NA is not
using it.  Works great on the Indian satellite..

Hey you, I resemble that!   Don't MAKE me use caps-lock!

Pass the donuts.  ;-)
