[amsat-bb] Wide or Narrow?

[Greg D]

Hi Scott,

Quick question...  AISAT-1 is which catalog number?  I recall some
discussion a while back, and I've got #44104 configured in Gpredict. 
But I also see AISAT (40054), AISSAT 1 (36797), AISSAT 2 (40075), and a
few others with similar names.

Which is AISAT-1 (one "S", with the dash)?

Thanks,

Greg  KO6TH
