 AMSAT to use FundRazr Crowdfunding

AMSAT have announced that they are using the FundRazr crowdfunding
platform to raise donations for the Fox-1C CubeSat

AMSAT is excited to announce a launch opportunity for the Fox-1C
Cubesat. AMSAT has teamed with Spaceflight Inc. for integration and
launch utilizing Spaceflight’s SHERPA system to a sun-synchronous
orbit in the third quarter of 2015.

Fox-1C is the third of four Fox-1 series satellites under development,
with Fox-1A and RadFXsat/Fox-1B launching through the NASA ELANA
program. Fox-1C will carry an FM repeater system for amateur radio use
by radio hams and listeners worldwide. Further details on the
satellite and launch will be made available as soon as released.

AMSAT has an immediate need to raise funds to cover both the launch
contract and additional materials for construction and testing for
Fox-1C. Please help us to continue to keep amateur radio in space.
