If you weren't able to attend the 23rd annual CubeSat Developers Workshop held in early April in California, you can still catch up with an important presentation about amateur radio in space, delivered by AMSAT president Drew Glasbrenner, KO4MA.
Drew gave a progress report on the 3U CubeSat project known as the GOLF-TEE mission. GOLF-TEE is expected to carry a 30 kHz wide linear transponder for ham radio communications as well as a 10 GHz high-speed experimental downlink and improved three-axis attitude control. This project is targeted for completion by early next year. He also provided an update on the Fox-Plus series of CubeSats, which blend commercial hardware with radio payloads developed by AMSAT.
