from the weather observation aircraft.

Reminder this launch is from CCAFS LC-37, not KSC.
Weather may be a factor both Thurs and Friday, 60% favorable as of today.

All of the ground support operations will likely be on either the KSC 400

Countdown updates can usually be heard on GID 6738 (Photo/Timing Net) on the
KSC trunked system.

We just found that we are free to go watch the Orion Launch Thursday. Our
last and only time down there was a night shuttle launch around late 2007 I
think. It was delayed one or two days for wind and we got lucky and it
launched just as we had to leave next day.
Had my R7000 on 259.4 I think. The crowd there all said goodbye when it was
on the horizon and they said "negative return" on my radio.

Question:
Is there anything to listen to this time on my R7000? Since there will be no
one on board.

Regards,
