Hi Folks,

I’ve just uploaded a very brief description, plus a few pics, of the FUNcube model I’ve been working on over the last few weeks. You can see the article on the new page under Overview/Model

FUNcube-1 Frequencies now confirmed

g3wgm — Mon, 01 Nov 2010 11:58:57 +0000

News Update 1st May 2012

As we now have a confirmed launch from Yasny later this year, we have had to carefully coordinate our planned operating frequencies in order to minimise the risk of interference between us and other payloads on the same launch.

We have therefore recently proposed a revised set of frequencies to the IARU Frequency Coordination Panel and they have today confirmed the following:

Inverting linear transponder:
Uplink 435.150 – 435.130 MHz
Downlink 145.950 – 145.970 MHz

Telemetry: 145.935 MHz BPSK

Please ignore any information that has been circulated previously!
