Peter Wakelin's observations of 2007 Apr 08-09 UTC have further improved the orbits. I have renamed 07005B from IGS-O3 to IGS-OVS, which denotes Optical Verification Satellite. I still have some doubt as to whether 06037A and 07005B need to be swapped (again!), but it will take some analysis before a decision can be made. I suspect that the mean motion of my 07005E elset of epoch 07098.03486949 may be a bit too high, so it could be many seconds late. The 07005E and F elsets are the least reliable, due to the small number of underlying observations. Standard magnitudes, where stated, are those of the corresponding 03009 objects.
