      SuitSat Readies for Operation
      on 145.990 MHz Updated

Now is the time to begin preparing your amateur radio station to receive 
signals from SuitSat, the most unusual Amateur Radio satellite ever 
orbited. SuitSat amateur radio equipment will be installed inside a 
surplus Russian Orlan spacesuit. It will become an independently 
orbiting satellite once it is deployed by the crew of the International 
Space Station during an extravehicular activity, tentatively planned for 
February 2nd, 2006.
