I understand that Wallops Island sent up a CUBE SAT fabricated by a high
school.
I would like to know if there are any articles about this, pictures etc.
that I can bring back to our school system.

I get an error 500, which means a problem on their end. Perhaps try to back

Hello everybody,
I was wondering if there is an Amsat-BB archive for the years 1990-1998.
Now we can read only from 1998.
Is there any "forward-looking" guy out there that has such an archive on
his PC?
thanks!

That is because very few of the organizations/campuses with satellites being
deployed
this week have public relations professionals to properly promote their
projects. And
if they do have public relations departments, they have not been "educated"
as to the
true value of their projects to the amateur radio world.
That's OUR responsibility. And we all can share the blame for this.
NASA does it well with their 28-page Guide to conducting an ARISS contact.
Included are
timetables for media alerts (used to be called "press releases"), detailed
step-by-step
instructions for micro-managing every aspect of the project ... THAT'S what
"we" should
develop for EVERY one of these amateur radio satellite projects for schools
and amateur
satellite builders could use to better promote their projects. Of course,
project
managers can opt not to use such a guide. But when they realize the free
publicity their
project could easily garner (media attendance and coverage, promotion by
AMSAT on their
various Web sites, et al) - "we" would make it very attractive TO use such a
guide.
I think AMSAT-NA should take the lead on this, and establish a committee to
develop
such a plan for future projects. I volunteer.

A Google search on "Batchpc" brings up the following results (among others).
"BatchPCB - The_sale

We would like to thank you for your dedication and support of BatchPCB over

The first hit brings up the error message of course. The second hit brings
up the facts.
BatchPCB is a has been. Maybe SparkFun will make it?

Amazing what passes for a HamSat these days.
Anybody with a browser, Ham or otherwise, can submit messages which
(provided they are approved) will be uploaded FOR you. Also, anyone
with a suitable UHF receiver can listen to the downlink!
Why, the only way this could get better is if the downlink were
available directly via the browser, so we could use this satellite
without the bother of setting up any sort of station at all!
