Parkes observations for project P602 semester 2007OCTS

We have detected dispersed radio pulsations positionally coincident with
a magnetar candidate. If they arise from the magnetar, this would be
only the second such instance. On the other hand, maybe the candidate
is not a magnetar - but the unusual radio pulsations are certainly real.
We therefore wish to get to the bottom of this potentially very exciting
discovery. The immediate need is to characterize the behavior of the
radio emission, and over a period of approximately one year attempt to
obtain a timing position to compare to the precisely-known position of
the X-ray source.
