    I conducted a planar search for USA 129 [24680/96072A] this evening.
    A strip low on the Northern horizon (20 deg altitude) was monitored
    between 19:08 to 20:05UT. Every 6 to 8 minutes the Nexstar mount was
    programmed to slew to a new position to keep the nominal plane
    centered in the field of view. USA 129 was seen a the end of the
    window, about 27 minutes late on elements from January 25th.
