China's Amateur Radio Satellite organization, CAMSAT, has released some details of three new Amateur Radio satellites that could be launched as early as September. Two of the satellites, CAS-5A and CAS-6, will carry transponders and one of them will have HF capability.
A launch at sea is planned for CAS-6 from the China Academy of Launch Vehicle Technology. The microsat will be placed into a 579 × 579 kilometre, 45° orbit.
CAMSAT has applied to the International Amateur Radio Union (IARU) to coordinate frequencies for all three spacecraft.
