August is only getting closer ... (grin). AMSAT-NA hopes to launch FOX-1A on 
August 25, 2015. 

Here are the frequencies to program into your handheld - it is the "reverse" of 
what we are used to with, say, SO-50: The downlink will be on 2M, and the 
uplink on 440. This is great for portable ops - we should achieve about a 6db 
INCREASE in downlink signal strength!

Two docs have the freqs for you to program into your HTs -

--- the Tutorial has SO-50 and FOX-1A freqs for you.

--- here's just the freq list, and AMSAT-NA's article on "How to Work" FOX-1A.

My demo radios are already programmed ... (grin)
