Hi,
AMSAT-UK has announced a new amateur satellite project – FUNcube – that
features a 435 to 145 MHz Linear Transponder for SSB/CW operation. The
project has received major initial funding from the Radio Communications
Foundation (RCF) and is expected be developed in collaboration with

AO51 435.300 is right hand circular polarization (RHCP).
AO51 435.150 is left hand (LHCP). If you try to hear
a LHCP signal with a RHCP antenna that is really right
hand, you will have a drop in signal that can exceed
20db. This will make the downlink unreadable at low
elevations. You
If you haven't taken a look at this introductory article, you really
should. It does so many things well, in my opinion. First, it doesn't
assume the reader is (yet!) a ham. Second, it uses very simple tools,
like heavens-above.com, to ensure success. Finally, it has that
makergeek cred from the
/**//*It is anticipated FUNcube will be launched into a Sun Synchronous
Low Earth Orbit about 600-700km above the earth using one of the many
launch opportunities that exist for Cubesat missions.*/
*_Many_* launch opportunities ???

Yes, there are lots of launch opportunities for LEO satellites. They aren't
free, but very inexpensive compared to a HEO satellite. You get a 800 km
orbit (like AO-51) for a 10 x 10 x 10-30 cm payload. The standard size
reduces overhead so you can afford to launch a very small satellite as one
