We have recently discovered a highly energetic pulsar in the error box of an unidentified EGRET source. The pulsar was found during a 6.7 GHz survey and is undetectable at more typical survey frequencies of 1.4 GHz and below. Buoyed by this success we propose to observe 4 unidentified EGRET source error boxes at a high frequency to try and find further pulsars. Only 7 gamma-ray pulsars are currently known; discovering further associations will eventually help determine the acceleration processes in pulsar magnetospheres.
