FUNcube frequencies

FUNcube frequencies announced

The AMSAT-UK FUNcube CubeSat project is intended for launch into a Low Earth Orbit (LEO).

It is designed to carry a 70cm to 2m linear transponder for SSB/CW communications along with a beacon carrying telemetry and data for educational demonstrations from space.
It is expected to be completed by Autumn 2010.

In addition to the satellite, the project includes the development of simple receivers and display software for use at schools.

A submission for frequencies was made to the IARU Amateur Satellite Frequency Coordination panel who have announced these coordinated frequencies for FUNcube.

Inverting linear transponder:
Uplink 435.080 – 435.060 MHz
Downlink 145.960 – 145.980 MHz
Beacon: 145.955 MHz CW and BPSK

Further information on this exciting UK Amateur satellite project can be found on the FUNcube website.
