I think that's an exampple, or a nickname for whatever the target it
but look! 108 minutes, and a 10 minute interval! Could very well be a satelite Desmond is trying to contact...

actually, in this case, it is actually tracking swans. lol.

but it can be used to track other things so its a valid theory...

But why would he have to reset his transmitter every 108 minutes? IT says the sattilite orbits every 108. But if he has power down in the hatch(which he does) wouldn't he just leave his transmitter on all the time?

Also, if all he has to do is type in the numbers every 108 why doesn't he write a batch file/cron to do it for him?
