Hi Everyone,
                It has been a long while since I have actively participated 
in SeeSat-L,   so maybe it is time for me to reintroduce myself & give 
details of my web page. As many of you know I was quite active in observing 
high altitude satellites particularly geoflashers and centaur rockets, trying 
to obtain flash period measurements when possible. The last couple of years 
I've been rather inactive, due to work obligations and current lack of a 
suitable "backyard" observing location. 

    I have a web page detailing observing techniques for high altitude 
satellites, as well as observing lists and some flash period analysis. This 
can be found at a new URL;

I haven't updated the site since 2000, so many of the external links are no 
longer valid. In the next few weeks I will be able to update and expand the 
site, feedback and input are welcome.

    I'm hoping to be able to observe more regularly now, concentrating on 
geoflashers primarily. Although I don't have a nearby location to make 
routine observations I'm trying to get out to a dark sky site 1-2 times per 
month. Last night I was up at Lake Sonoma, CA but we got clouded out before I 
could make any serious observations :-(

    I'm glad to see that some of the Gorizont's continue to be observed and 
timed. Has anyone been observing Gorizont 23 (91-046A) regularly since 2000? 
This is an interesting geoflasher since the flash period varies cyclical over 
a period of several months (see my web page for details) - it would be nice 
to know if this has continued.

    Best wishes and clear skies,


    Jason P Hatton
