Iridium 44 one-power flashes last night (2001 Sept 3 UTC): 2:06:32.0 -1 2:06:54.8 -3 2:07:06.6 faint 2:07:18.0 faint 2:07:28.4 faint, first of very quick triple flash 2:07:29.3 faint 2:07:29.8 brightest of triple 2:07:52.6 faint Faint ones were maybe +3.5 or so, maybe slightly brighter, under full Moon. Location: 30.315N, 97.866W, 280m The times are rounded and really within +/- 0.5 second -- still trying to adapt to my new and somewhat problematic Sportline Elite 570 stopwatch (hurry-up purchase at Academy; "haste maketh waste"). It has a large two-line display, but only 6 places -- okay for less than one hour but harder to use beyond that; has "runs", but those require learning how to use them; all in all, quite different from and, IMO, harder to use than their Alpha 470, version 2.0.
