Launch date for Dove-1 ad PhoneSats ?
I've heard that the launch date for Dove-1 and the three v1 PhoneSats on Antares has slipped from December into January.
Can anyone confirm the date of the launch ?

Trevor Any word on modulation scheme of the phonesats? Preliminary docs suggest an S band downlink. 73 de Norm n3ykf

IARU list 145.825 MHz AFSK FM AX.25 downlink for Dove-1 and 437.425 MHz AX.25 AFSK for Phonesat v1.
The orbit is listed as just 270x270km 51.6 degree inclination so the sats will burn up fairly quickly.
