    What these numbers mean: http://www.satobs.org/position/IODformat.html
    
    Site 2701: 43.68764 N, 79.39243 W, 230 m
    
    With the addition of the above, and the latest obs by David, Peter and Russell,
    I obtained this elset:
    
    Lacrosse 4      18.0  4.5  0.0  3.6 v
    1 26473U 00047A   04279.38563031  .00000100  00000-0  18903-4 0    03
    2 26473  68.0042  54.6248 0009226 313.6270  46.4090 14.64134025    07
    Arc 2004 Oct 01.16 - 05.39, WRMS residuals = 0.038 deg
    
    The above assumes that the increase in mean motion was due to a manoeuvre
    sometime between Sep 22 and Oct 01, and that the rate of decay has remained
    constant.
