Oh come on Andy-roo.

The Russian birds were brilliant.

Forget jingo-ism and national pride but the RS series were briliant.

Real amateur sats for real amateurs.

The crap from Surrey just panders to a minority, which doesn't even
include hams from the last 20 years - let alone newcomers.

Just accept that the Russian's got AMATEUR RADIO satellites right,
the crap from the US/UK/ARABS is pathetic.

Did Warren the axeman design them ?

It sounds like it.

The West should be ashamed.
