Report time 18:45 UTC
1998-32F (#25347) Delta 2 R/B:

SpaceCom released an update - prepared May 14, 15:01 UTC
                  May 15, 15:25 UTC +/- 15 hours  (26.7°S, 213.8°E)

MPM shows with the ELSETS 99134.238... - 99134606... a decay at
                  May 15,  14:01 UTC +/- 90 min   (22.5°S, 235.2°E)
on an ascending pass. 
This is nearly identical with my yesterdays prediction. Also the forecast with
a pure analytical SGP4 method shows over the last 48 hours a near constant decay
time but one rev later (May 15, 15:37 UTC +/- 10 min).
