Hello Nick,

Howard Long, G6LVB, hasn't made a post on the funcubedongle.com website 
in ~4 years. He does not respond to comments on that website regarding 
the USB bugs in the FCDP+, so I don't think he'll be very responsive to 
broken hardware/schematic requests, either.

Appealing directly to AMSAT-UK may have some effect.

I believe that the secrecy surrounding this dongle stems from the NDA-ed 
silicon tuner and a desire to keep it from being cloned.

It is unfortunate that such a wonderful gadget is both closed source and 
closed hardware.
