[amsat-bb] Early Oscar and Martin Marietta

This is an old, dusty Oscar history question, so anyone not interested in old, dusty questions - feel free to punch out here :-)

Were there any Martin Marietta employees involved in the early Project Oscar days? Radio club participation perhaps? Any direct technical contribution, hardware or otherwise, by the company?

I ask not as a current/former employee, just doing some historical research.

Thanks, Rich, N8UX
