    Notes:
    (1) Earlier pass of 96 072A was recorded on video but satellite was
        very faint - about mag +9 as elevation was only about 7 degrees.
        This pass was NOT measured- if anyone really wants it please let
        me know in the next day or two ( ie before I re-use the video tape)
        and Ill have a go at it.
    
    Cheers
    Greg
