They're in the final hold, weather is awesome and everything looks good
to go for the 0948 UTC launch. Much like RAX-1, RAX-2 will have an
Amateur Radio beacon spitting out 500mW of 9600 baud GMSK every 20
seconds from it's right handed circularly polarized antenna... Such a
spunky lil bird... Once she reaches orbit and the ground stations are
able to track her they will upload the TLE data to their site.
