Subject: Astrid satellite receiver

An Astrid satellite receiver just landed on the doorstep (along with an
Econet Bridge, FIT and PET - lots of rare goodies in one go!)

Anyone know anything about these receivers though? Is the satellite
still operational (I see from google that UoSAT2 was still going in 2002
at least)? If it is, any idea what cabling and software I need, and what
antenna? I've only got the box itself, unfortunately.

Anyone got documentation?

Seems a long shot that this thing can ever be made to work again, but it
doesn't hurt to ask... :-)

cheers,

Jules
