FUNcube AO-73 update
by Graham Shirville 23 Nov '13

23 Nov '13

After some commanding "difficulties" - actually caused by a setup error here at the ground station, we can confirm that AO-73 was switched into autonomous mode during our pass on Orbit 32. Your reports are awaited with interest! 73 Graham G3VZV

when will AO-73 (funcube) keps be available for download from some fo the selections in Satpc32? A download without those keps will erase the manual installed ones. 73 Bob W7LRD

Just copied 89 frames of telemetry from FunCube 1. I agree, the 13066B is a really good fit. FUNCUBE-1 1 39417U 13066B 13326.90242084 .00004113 00000-0 57014-3 0 107 2 39417 97.7998 39.4992 0063751 190.6311 169.3388 14.77099805 237 Rick - WB3CSY -- Sent from Rick's gmail account

Funcube AO-73 Heard On Hand Held
by Dave Marthouse 22 Nov '13

22 Nov '13

I just had the pleasure of hearing the 0236UTC pass of Funcube AO-73 on my TH-F6A with nothing but a Comet tri-band antenna on the radio. I was standing in my living room. For an extremely minimalist receiving setup like that it was a real trip! Signals were strong from the beacon on 145.935mHZ. My kudos to all involved in the project.
