Good eye! Close, but no cigar.  PCSAT2 is actually the 5th flight of
MISSE, Materials In Space Science Experiments (the suitcase)...

PCSAT2/MISSE5 is on the ISS, but MISSE's have flown before
on MIR and ISS but none have had an active RF payload.
When we heard of them, we asked for a free ride and got
one on MISSE5.  MISSE5 will be returned to earth on the
next Space SHuttle at the end of August.  And hopefuly may
fly someday again...
