Interesting chart, it suggests rate of decay is size/mass dependent. RAIKO
which is a 2U CubeSat and was deployed 2nd is now higher than all the others.

I'm ploting altitude of five CubeSats which were deployed from ISS.
The results is interesting. First deployment satellites are lower
altitude than laters. I guess this is related to initial velocity at
deployment.
First Deployment
deployment order: #1 WE WISH, #2 RAIKO
altitude: WE WISH < RA
Some guidance regarding Amateur use of circular polarization is given by IARU
Region 1 in the VHF Managers Handbook.
IARU-R1 recommend that "Looking into the direction of transmission, helical
beam aerials shall have a right-hand thread."
