[amsat-bb] Funcube dongle Adios

[Burns Fisher]

I heard back from Howard.  He says the site should be back up (probably
takes a while for the domain to spread around to all the name servers).  He
also said:

Meanwhile, we’re out of stock for a few days, demand over the past few
months has been nearly double the usual run rate, and without a crystal
ball it’s impossible to predict! One of the parts for the current run was
on an unusually long lead time, hence the gap in stock, otherwise we’ve
been lucky despite the current situation. They’re on the production right
now, and I expect to have new stock within a week.

73,
