Thanks Les. I modified the toothpick post by wrapping a 3mm strip of paper around it until it was the right diameter. I think a 2mm strip would be a closer to scale thickness. With the glue holding it together it was hard enough to drill holes through and I used 24 gauge jewellery/beading wire for the aerial.
Zach, if you're looking for more ideas for satellites, I'd like to see an Aussat-1.
