    Hi,
    
    Just observed USA 193 on a near zenith pass. The sky was still bright so I
    took my point at 1x. It looked on track but early relative to this elset :
    USA 193          5.0  2.5  0.0  4.3 v                    245 X 258 km
    1 29651U 06057A   08050.77400802  .00256405  00000-0  29678-3 0    02
    2 29651  58.5208  31.8067 0009932  58.7181 301.4893 16.08191854    02
    
    IOD report :
    29651 06 057A   1747 G 20080220230910100 37 25 0422540+493670 49 S+010 05
    
    It was steady at a surprising magnitude 1.
