Description

Welcome to the FUNcube group,
AMSAT-UK’s FUNcube is an educational single cubesat project with the goal of enthusing and educating young people about radio, space, physics and electronics.

It will support the educational Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM) initiatives and provide an additional resource for the GB4FUN Mobile Communications Centre.

The target audience consists of primary and secondary school pupils and FUNcube will feature a 145 MHz telemetry beacon that will provide a strong signal for the pupils to receive.

A simple SDR receiver board (FUNcube Dongle) is also being developed. It is intended that this will be connected to the USB port of a laptop to display telemetry and messages in an interesting way.

We welcome you to share your thoughts,pictures and anything you would like to add to this project,please post any question you have.

For more information on the FUNcube project please visit http://www.funcube.org.uk
and the latest on the FUNcube SDR dongle visit http://www.funcubedongle.com/

FUNcube will carry a UHF to VHF linear transponder that will have up to 1 watt and which can be used by Radio Amateurs worldwide for SSB and CW communications.
Measuring just 10 x 10 x 10 cm, and with a mass of less than 1kg, it will be the smallest ever satellite to carry a linear transponder and the choice of frequencies will enable Radio Amateurs to use their existing VO-52, DO-64, HO68 and similar stations.
