Our engineering team is creating a
new industry in personal location services.
Our highly experienced
engineering team has founded and managed successful aerospace development, manufacturing,
and consultancy companies
with hundreds of millions of dollars in revenues. We have delivered
advanced
aerospace products and services to major government and commercial customers worldwide
over the past several decades.
Our CEO is George Weischadle, founder and President of
Sattel
Technologies and a pioneer in
commercial satellite systems who contributed to the designs of America's
first domestic satellite network,
WESTAR, and
Asia's first regional satellite network,
PALAPA.
Mr. Weischadle holds degrees in electrical engineering, business and law.
Sattel Technologies made history when it purchased an
in-orbit telecommunications satellite, brought it back to Earth on the Space
Shuttle, then refurbished and
relaunched
it as the world's first reconditioned satellite in space.
The Palapa B2-R satellite has a colorful
history.
Sattel's customers
include major government telecom network operators worldwide, plus NASA,
McDonnell Douglas and Hughes Aircraft. Our accomplishments include
the first all-digital
Intelsat Super-VISTA satellite
modem; the first implementation of European GSM standards on
satellite links; and the world's largest Demand Assignment
Multiple Access (DAMA) public telecom
system which
interconnects countries with a variety of
public
network protocols.
