We analyzed the spin period evolution of Swift J1749-2807 during four RXTE observations, the two reported in ATel #2567 and ATel #2565, plus two observations beginning at April 15 21:42UT and April 16 4:57UT. The spin frequency was observed to vary between 1035.6 and 1036.3 Hz (not barycentered). A preliminary fit with a sinusoid yields an orbital modulation period of 3.19x104 seconds, corresponding to 8.86 hr.
