I just gat the following conformation from ARRL . 

============================================ 

New version (Ver. 2.7) of configuration file config.xml now available on
Logbook server

Changed in config.xml version 2.7: Added entry for AO-73 (FunCube) to
list of recognized satellites

Please log into your LoTW account, click on YOUR ACCOUNT - Your
Certificates - download latest configuration file.

This will update the satellite list and accept AO-73.

You should be able to sign the QSOs with TQSL to make a TQ8 file with
those QSOs.

Thank you.
73,

=========================================== 

I also confirmed it as working .
