    USA 193 (06-057A) was very bright just before eclipse entry: mag +1 and zipping 
    across the sky. It was on-track and I have it +0.7s late relative to Ted's elset 
    07092.81281782.
    
    I have USA 129 (96-072A) -0.6s early relative to Mike's elset 07090.84560885.
    
    Lacrosse 2 (91-017A) was -4.7s to -4.8s early relative to 07088.91135150
    
    Lacrosse 5 data for this night will follow tomorrow, I am too tired now to 
    measure the remaining 5 images with Lacrosse 5.
