    1) Several Glonass satellites seen crossing field of view-quite
        easy - probably steady around magnitude +11 or so. Much easier
        to see than the GPS NAVSTAR equivalent.

    I agree, easier to see glonass satellites. 
    
    The newest generation ( block 2F ) look good for seeing, I plan to look at them.
    
    They are the following
    
    36585
    37753
    38833
    
    I observed a galileo sat, the other day, don't remember which one. It was either
    
    37847
    38857
    38858
    
    I had no problem seeing it, it was mag 11 are brighter.
