I'll pass this along to some of the ham radio people I know. Actually
I'll get my husband to put it in the next issue of our radio club's
newsletter (he's the editor).

Better than donations to charity, more value-add than quilting from

SUITSAT: On February 3rd, astronauts plan to hurl an old spacesuit
overboard from the International Space Station. The disembodied suit,
nicknamed "SuitSat," will proceed to circle Earth, transmitting a
radio message which anyone can hear using a police scanner or a ham
radio tuned to 145.990 MHz FM. This strange experiment is a test of a
sensible idea--that old spacesuits might be transformed into useful
satellites.
