Jerry,
Well, they are all CubeSats!
However, three on tomorrow's launch will have voice access and one packet access.
FUNCube-1 will have a U/V linear transponder. It will be active in 1-2 weeks if everything checks out. The linear transponder will only normally be available when the satellite is in eclipse.
Delfi-n3xt will have a U/V linear transponder. It will be active following the completion of it's primary mission.
Triton-1 will have a U/V FM-to-DSB transponder. It will be active following the completion of it's primary mission in about 3 months.
CubeBug will have a packet digipeater. I think it's capable of either 1200 baud or 9600 baud use.
73,
Paul, N8HM
