I'd love to see your RSS feed subscription list. I just (reluctantly) renewed my Feedly Pro subscription, but after more than a decade I've now turned off auto-renew. I just don't read the news as I once did back in the Google News days with the commentary and social interactions. But, maybe if I got focused on some of the more Zero Retries interesting RSS Feeds it might help.
Thanks for the YouTube RSS tip. I usually allow other sources to surface interesting YT content (there's too much content) but this might be a way to pay attention more directly. I'd be curious to hear which RSS reader you prefer. I recently switched from The Old Reader to Innoreader.
Recommissioning an old government/commercial sat for amateur use is an interesting concept. Could be considerably cheaper and potentially fewer logistics to wrangle. May be a good grant proposal idea for a dedicated group to conduct research and start feasibility discussions.
Mr. Perens was founder of No-Code International, which helped to convince the International Telecommunications Union, FCC and the telecommunications regulators of many nations to drop the Morse code requirement for Amateur Radio licensing. With the possible exception of Russia, all nations have now dropped that requirement. Mr. Perens is a Radio Amateur, and holds an holds an Amateur Extra class license, with station license K6BP. He is active in the innovation of new codecs and protocols for digital voice communications. He serves AMSAT in helping to create a new geostationary satellite in cooperation with FEMA, which will provide 24-hour digital communications including disaster services.
I'm really happy about the Archive scanning in all those old manuals. Making them searchable will be a big win, but my hope is that it will enable many of us to find our "Holy Grail" documents (those paper manuals before there were electronic copies). Mine is for a 6-M Azden PCS-5000 mobile, made back in the era of the Commodore VIC-20. (I'd be interested in seeing the VIC manuals again as well, now that I think about them. I hacked modem and memory boards to gpo with those.)
