FUNcube now on Facebook and Twitter

The AMSAT-UK FUNcube Amateur Radio satellite project is now on Facebook and Twitter.

AMSAT-UK’s FUNcube is an educational CubeSat project with the goal of enthusing and educating young people about radio, space, physics and electronics.

Measuring just 10*10*10cm, FUNcube will carry a 145.955 MHz 1200 bps BPSK telemetry beacon along with a 435.080 to 145.960 MHz linear transponder for SSB and CW communications.

Developed as part of AMSAT-UK’s FUNcube satellite project, the FUNcube Dongle is a radio receiver designed to allow anyone to try their hand at reception of satellites like FUNcube. The Software Defined Radio covers 64 - 1700 MHz and connects to the USB port of a laptop.
