Hi Tony, Astra 1d should be 28 degs East(Its one of the astra group that is located with the newer birds) ...but it is not affected by the bug....only certain sats sem to be "bugged" if you take a look at http://www.lyngsat.com you'll see that they are saying Asta 1a info is unavailable in the tracking section....all very strange. Heavens above also locates Astra 1a ( 19688) over the Pacific ! I am beginning to wonder if this is a bug associated with Y2K+1 John > John, I accessed ASTRA 1D 23331 and OPTUS B3 (23227)using the select a > satellite feature on heavens-above.com . ASTR 1d was sitting at about 30E, > and OPTUS B3 at 153E like it should, so I dont think its a problem > with the TLE's. In both cases the TLE's used were the latest available from OIG > I think your prediction programme has a bug in it. > Tony Beresford ----------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe from SeeSat-L by sending a message with 'unsubscribe' in the SUBJECT to SeeSat-L-request@lists.satellite.eu.org http://www2.satellite.eu.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
