Yep! Get those 70cm antennas ready to go for your FoxTelem stations!

NASA TV will be airing the unberthing live, which is scheduled for 14:35 UTC on Friday. According to the NASA media advisory, deployment of the CubeSats will occur within 24 hours after unberthing. Hopefully we’ll see packets start flowing into the AMSAT server some time on Saturday.

The space station blog says that the crew are packing the Cygnus for departure. It's my understanding that it will boost to a higher orbit and release its small sats, including AMSAT-NAs collaboration with the University of Washington - HuskySat.

So it you want to collect telemetry on 70cm from a cubesat, using FoxTelem, then this is your chance. Prepare your station for reception. The blog says that the Cygnus spacecraft will depart "at the end of the week".
