[amsat-bb] Re: FUNcube-1 Object Number

[Burns Fisher]

I should have said that Celestrak's AMATEUR.TXT has had 10366AE listed for
a while.  The name  was only changed from DNEPR OBJECT AE to be FUNCUBE
(AO-73) today.  I had AMSATNAMES.TXT set up so I did not notice the change.

Sorry for the incorrect info.
