FUNcube-2 linear transponder successfully tested
Limited testing of the FUNcube-2 linear transponder on the UKube-1 spacecraft has been undertaken during the holiday period after Christmas.
This testing has shown that the transponder is able to work effectively and that it is capable of a similar performance to the transponder already operating on FUNcube-1.
AMSAT-UK and the FUNcube team will be submitting a detailed report on the testing to the UK Space Agency, who are the owners and prime operators of the UKube-1 spacecraft, early next week. It is expected that a meeting will be held with them later in the month to define how they wish us to proceed further.
