Last evening Vortex 6 and USA 227 have had to be in the same part of the sky and in narrow field of view, but I managed to find only one slow-moving geosat. Maybe because of unfavorable weather (haze, clouds). I think that the sat was Vortex, and it was early (0 < Xtrack < 0.8 arcminutes, -153 < Time < -149 seconds in comparison to 13090.211 orbital elements). 19976 89 035A 1244 P 20130412184700600 57 15 1447060-094250 29 S+103 06 19976 89 035A 1244 P 20130412185030300 37 15 1451142-095023 49 S+100 06 19976 89 035A 1244 P 20130412185132900 37 15 1452285-095308 49 S+099 03 19976 89 035A 1244 P 20130412185512900 37 15 1456497-100112 49 S+100 10 19976 89 035A 1244 P 20130412185644670 37 15 1458378-100504 49 S 19976 89 035A 1244 P 20130412185720500 37 15 1459208-100550 29 S 19976 89 035A 1244 P 20130412185748200 37 15 1459544-100714 49 S 19976 89 035A 1244 P 20130412185855300 37 15 1501135-100911 49 S 19976 89 035A 1244 P 20130412190034600 57 15 1503112-101251 39 S 19976 89 035A 1244 P 20130412190152500 37 15 1504436-101553 49 S 19976 89 035A 1244 P 20130412191039650 37 15 1515147-103433 29 S 19976 89 035A 1244 P 20130412191122000 57 15 1516057-103604 49 S 19976 89 035A 1244 P 20130412191217500 67 15 1517099-103804 59 S Used CCD camera EVS VNC-753-H2 on 12cm refractor (FOV is 36'x27').
