The current administration seems to have given some consideration to
relaxing the ITAR Satellite rules...
http://rescommunis.wordpress.com/2009/07/05/obama-itar-reform-could-move-sat
ellites-back-to-commerce/
Perhaps we should join the U.S. space hardware makers who have complained
about lost market opportunities and allow them to put forward that a "World
Friendly" educational satellite could set the stage as a "test case" for
trying loosened restrictions.
We would need a lobbyist though, as the current rule making bodies don't
seem to have a lot of Hams in them

Hi Mike...
I notice that the packets you receive seem all perfect...have you considered
turning your "PASSALL" ON and leaving your "buffer" ON to be able to look at
everything coming down?
Just a thought...

I missed the last pass due family activities...
But here are the two passes from this afternoon.
During the day, with the higher elevation passes, RF link was not
alway much better (read, I just get normally a few more packets)
