FUNcube / AO-73 weekend operations
Hi All,
During the last pass, I have attempted to command FUNcube-1 into fixed amateur mode for the weekend. However, this did not succeed yet. It does not indicate a spacecraft problem, but some problems in my (very limited) commanding setup.
The next attempt will be made tomorrow 12th of April around 09:00 UTC using another set of hardware with proper tracking yagi's
Sorry for the delay folks!

Happy Gagarin day everyone (April 12th 1961)
