    To get siderial position correct, add 10 min to R.A. for 03:13 launch
    
    If you want it visually, use the 99998 elset. I included a further
    10 min delay elset for symmetry, though the launch window is until 06:04 UT

    Indeed, W 75 deg., right over del UMa from Stockholm !
    This morning I had a lot of haze before sunrise, clear now,
    but clouds have been "promised" for today at least.
