How often do you beacon?

I have a radioshield on an arduino in a rocket, and I TX once a
second.  I wonder how xastir+festival would behave in such conditions?

Elevation would be nice, too, for rockets and balloons.  Not sure
that's reasonable for standard xastir users, but it would sure be
handy for me on occasion.
