I used 2013-066B, object 39417 today for FUNcube with good results.
Suspect this object is the cluster of three cubesats that were deployed
together. Perhaps ZAcube-1 and HiNcube also work with these keps, although I
haven't tried to receive them.

On updating from Celestrak I get a whole heap of 2013-06xx keps - one
of them must match with FUNCUBE, is there a list somewhere of which
objects match which of the latest cubesats launched?
