Transponder Test tomorrow – 23 Nov 2013.
We are planning to open the transponder for a single orbit tomorrow. The aim of this test is to establish the thermal performance of the satellite when in this mode for an extended period. All radio amateurs who are in the footprint are welcome to make their own tests of the transponder up/down links, and make QSOs. We are planning to switch on the transponder either during the orbit timed at 0937 UTC (orbit 31) TCA Bletchley Park, or the following orbit at 1113 UTC (orbit 32).
If you do make a QSO or test, please report the details below as a comment.
Please note that we have not yet fully characterised the transponder frequencies.
Welcome to the FUNcube Web Site 
Hi! A silly question please… The pass predictions for FUNcube at http://www.n2yo.com for my location (just 50 miles South of BP) are many hours different to your expected 0937 and 1113 UTC passes. Where can I get accurate pass predictions please? Thank you in advance. All the best – Steve M0ECS
Here in NICE France (43.926N 7.131E) FUNCUBE received very strong and recorded with funcube SDR and vertical 3dB at orbit 31 by F6GIZ
I was trying to listen from 9.31 UTC, up of the half of the path there was nothing heard, no beacon. About 9.40 the beacon went on, but no signal from transponder. I tried to record the data with HDSDR, but I am not sure about the quality. After request I can share the wav. My used equipment 6el Yagi /2m 17el Yagi for 70cm, automatic elevation/azimuth tracking.
No signal received from the trasponder in center Italy.
