Immortal Guides had a PC match scheduled for Wednesday, so I decided the grab a Destroyer and see if I could figure out how to Drop an orbital from EVE. It took me half of the first match to figure out how to find the District Satellite, and then I had to google a YouTub video to realize you have to mouse over the planet and to find the district to click on, in order to lock onto the district. I did that successfully, however although I could see the rectangle for the countdown bar, and linked to Team coms, I did not get the 3 minute countdown.
So my question is, why did I not get the 3 minute countdown?
Was it because there was no one on my team in the first match and no one from the other team in the second match? Or was I doing something wrong? I knew in the first match that since no one seemed to be in the match on my team, that I would not actually be able to drop it, I was hoping to at least get to the point of qualifying for one, even if there was no one to give me a target.

So, the countdown is not shown. That is good to know. Now, is it still just the 3 minute wait, as in FW, or do squads in PC still have to earn WP to get access to EVE Orbitals?

I knew each of these 4 points already, but I appreciate you making sure.

"fly safe" Do you put stabs on your fit too? if not I'd love to know where you do OBs, I've got a ship set up looking for kills in MH.
LOL. Take a look at Renier GadenGÇÖs kill board before assuming I am an easy target. I may not be a PVP god, but I have been around the block enough times to take precautions. 
I will give you a hint. My other EVE account has 143 ship kills and an efficiency of 88.3%.
