CAPE  CANAVERAL, Florida (Reuters) -- Thanks to an innovative Russian 
recycling  program, amateur radio fans expect to be hearing from a new recruit in 
orbit  when an old spacesuit gets a new life as a radio satellite this  week.
Beginning Friday, SuitSat should be on the air, broadcasting on FM  145.990 
MHz. SuitSat's signal can be picked up on a ham radio or a police  scanner.
