I should have said that Celestrak's AMATEUR.TXT has had 10366AE listed for a while. The name was only changed from DNEPR OBJECT AE to be FUNCUBE (AO-73) today. I had AMSATNAMES.TXT set up so I did not notice the change.
Sorry for the incorrect info.

I would add that Celestrak's AMATEUR.TXT file has had 13066AE listed as FUNCUBE (AO-73) for a little while now.

Rich,
You have been able to download it for weeks. However, the wrong satellite was identified with it. Using the SatPC32 AMSATNAMES.TXT you can identify a satellite with the official numbers, which I did a few weeks back. Put in the line
39444 13066AE AO-73
in the file, or edit the existing one, and you will get the right AO-73 object. Note that the current NASA.ALL file has the old identification, and will probably be updated later this week.
73s,
Alan WA4SCA
