Update: If launch is successful, deployment will be in T+10 or so, a fairly
rapid deployment! First transmissions shortly thereafter! I think that
means a lucky radio station over which the spacecraft will be flying
(possibly, Pacific Rim/US West Coast) will be getting first transmission
shortly (i
Hello:

Hi Douglas,
Using two identical 50 ohm coax lenght you can't transform each 50 ohm
antenna impedance into 100 ohm but if you connect both 50 ohm coax cables
to a T connector than the resulting impedance at the common output of the T
connector will be 25 ohm i.e. two 50 ohm impedances in parallel
