Only from a recent announcement to the APRS SIG.  I think there are  
two of them, RAFT and ANDE.  They'll be on their primary mission for  
a while, so do digipeating.  After the primary mission is complete  
they'll switch over to space-based digipeating.

Listen on 145.82, and they're asking for satgates, just make sure you  
don't TX on 145.825 and definitely don't igate inet -> RF.
