A group of space enthusiasts have made contact with a satellite launched in 1978.
One of the hurdles to communicating with the thirty-plus year old satellite is finding electronics which can talk that slow … sort of.
Sounds like the set up for a cheesy science fiction thriller.
(You do know what Heathkits are, don’t you? My first computer was a Heathkit H-89, which I built myself.)
Three cheers for the amateurs!
