    Clouds coming in around the time of observation, but relevant sky parts for this 
    part were clear. While watching USA 161 cross through the center of Cygnus 
    during the first image, another object briefly flared brightly to -1 or -2 in 
    the northwest part of Cygnus, somewhat north of the right wing, in a somewhat 
    similar trajectory to USA 161. The only candidate I get for it is OPS 
    8464/Transit 5B-7 (65-065F). It was just outside the camera field alas.
    
    01-044A was 1.6s early relative to Ted's 10203.99777625 elset.
    
    This will probably be my last observations for the coming 3 weeks, as I am off 
    to the Italian mountains after tomorrow.
