The BIRDS-X Project proudly announces the Ground Terminal Competition, presenting an opportunity for anyone to demonstrate their expertise and propel the frontiers of satellite communication. The competition is open to any amateur radio license holder. We invite you to upgrade/update your amateur radio station or build your ground terminal to perform satellite communications using amateur radio bands. The competitors can transmit and receive messages via the Automatic Packet Report System (APRS) repeater installed onboard the Dragonfly satellite. This process of sending and receiving information packets is known as “digipeating.”
