For those who can't get enough information about this excellent
project, or those who just like high-res pictures of the construction
of satellites, there is a ppt slideshow at
http://www.delfic3.nl/forum/showthread.php?t=873

Until I saw the last slide, I didn't know what satellites were truly built of.

That slideshow shows the telemetry capture software in operation
(named 'RASCAL'?). Is there anywhere we can download this? It seems to
be based in the Warbler demodulator, so we could use that to check out
our computers and soundcards, I suppose.

Less than two weeks to go, with any luck
