[GCARC] GREENCUBE Satellite

[Christopher Wawak]

Hey, anyone messing around with the Greencube satellite? It's in MEO, so a little bit different from the LEO satellites. It's got a digipeater which allows you to send and receive messages with a configurable delay.

So far, I've successfully RX'd one packet on the last pass. I'm going to try again tonight. It took a bit of time to follow the directions and get set up. If I can figure this out, I'm happy to record a video or something and share it with the club.
