Hi Larry,

I am helping the University of Florida with their pico-satellite 
(SwampSat) which launched this week from Nasa Wallops.  Would you mind 
forwarding the request below to any of the HDARC members who work 
satellites?  We are trying to find ourselves in orbit and verify the 
satellite is alive on the 70 cm band.  Once I stop sweating this I will 
get back to another HDARC meeting.

Thank you,
Shawn Allgeier
