Geostationary ham radio satellites
**********************************
EngineerIT magazine reports on the quest by radio amateurs to get
transponders on geostationary satellites
The article quotes President of AMSAT DL, Peter Gülzow DB2OS, and describes
the transponders planned for the geostationary Es'Hail-2 satellite, expected
to be operational in 2017 at 26 degrees East.
Also mentioned is a project to build a transponder for a US satellite which
could be in a geosynchronous orbit around 74 degrees West.
