Roger, WA1KAT asks:
Does anyone have an "off-the-shelf" unit that's ready for
"qualification"?
This might be an opportunity to fly it...
This is based on a report from [amsat-India] (Ed.):
Following is the status of various transponders considered for vusat:
1.Dutch transponder by William, PE1RAH
Flight model delivered to ISRO.
Will have to be qualified for various environmental tests.
Will fly, if qualified and accepted by ISRO 2.
2.Indian Transponder by Amsat-India
Demonstration model fabricated.
On-the-air tests reported.
Flight model fabrication yet to start.
3. Italian Transponder by Amsat-Italy
Difficulty in delivering the flight model.
May not fly.
[ANS thanks Roger, WA1KAT, for the above information.]
