[amsat-bb] Sapphire Operational?

[Robert Bruninga]

OK, apparently Genesat is operational.

How about Sapphire? NO45. I saw a report on dcarr's web page
about 3 days ago, but no reporting callsign was given so I could
ask for confirmation. Its AMSAT web page is very much out of
date too...  As the launching party, I will get this corrected
and declare sapphire as dead unless someone has info to the
contrary.  

I tried to connect to it today with zeero response.
