The first four post-launch TLE sets have been published by Space-Track.
They are for objects 43013 through 43016. They seem to be for four of
the five cubesats in this launch. They are only seconds apart. Of course
it is not clear yet if the TLE set for Fox 1B is one of these sets and 
if so,
which one it is.
