Provide radio amateur communication with a regenerative ASK repeater. |
Description |
Provide radio amateur communication with a regenerative ASK repeater. They will also be used to test the transponder receiver part of future EASAT-2 satellite in engineering process by AMSAT EA with Universidad Europea, and to validate the structure, the thermal model and the passive attitude system being developed in the university by students. The satellites will transmit ASK telemetry with its internal status so radio-amateurs can decode it and participate in the data analysis. Minor differences there will be implemented between the L and the N satellites (basically different thermal design). |
