SuitSat - No Luck Yet.........................
 
Ok, it just passed over TX again still nothing here! DXAce any luck, or
are you trying? Anyone else listening to this signal, or trying?

I just got my scanner all ready when I started seeing reports that its
already fallen silent. Hopefully someone will try it again sometime soon.

Dammit, nope didn't hear about it, and actually went to electronics
store to find special connector to link my scanner to a long wire
antenna! Thanks for the info!


I rather doubt that hooking a long wire antenna to your scanner is going to help.
A good antenna matched for that frequency range would be much better.

Please see my later post... and note that it's VERY weak, and not operating
properly, by all posted accounts.

Someday a UFO will pick that Space Suit up (thinking they have caught a
"live one") and take it to their home planet and put it on display.

Interesting, it's news to me, last I heard it was silent.
