Hi All,

Here is some good news just released by  the UK Space Agency about the UKube-1 project.

You will see that the FUNcube system is formally part of the project. Whilst the release does not mention the  FUNcube linear U/V transponder function during evenings and weekend, this functionality will be included in the same way that it is planned for the actual FUNcube-1 cubesat itself! 

The FUNcube development team is looking forward to the extra challenge of producing two sets of everything in the very short timescales required by both projects:)
