My copies of Track16 got damaged in the transfer to my new system -
hope I can find a new one - but here is TrakStar output from your elset
( I suppose an apogee burn is made at apogee - and the first one ??)

1998 Oct 09  03:38:00    0=F837'39" S    93=F842'21" E  35936.370   =20
1998 Oct 09  03:39:00    0=F834'25" S    93=F834'21" E  35937.364   =20

The next orbit:
1998 Oct 09  14:10:00    0=F834'24" S    64=F846'41" W  35933.692   =20

1998 Oct 09  14:12:00    0=F827'55" S    65=F802'41" W  35936.551   =20
1998 Oct 09  14:13:00    0=F824'40" S    65=F810'41" W  35937.100   =20
1998 Oct 09  14:14:00    0=F821'25" S    65=F818'41" W  35937.062   =20
1998 Oct 09  14:15:00    0=F818'11" S    65=F826'41" W  35936.437   =20

, and so on.
Hope someone knows which orbit, and (for your sake) not the first one.
