THE SATPAQ2
The SatPaq2 is a handheld, software-defined radio [SDR] that communicates with commercial geostationary satellites. By connecting with GEOs, four significant advantages can be realized:
• Real-time, robust communications
• Very stealthy [LPI/LPD] connectivity
• Inexpensive communications
• The satellites are already in orbit throughout the world.
CONVENIENCE
The SatPaq2 is small, lightweight, and convenient to use. It connects via Bluetooth or USB-C to a conventional smartphone for user interaction and control. The application software (called
SpaceLinq®) looks like any other texting application.
