    Since my latest obs 2005-12-17 (!) I've had two clear evenings,
    both of which I was neither at Malma nor in town.
    Today was the same, but I had binoculars, and my
    wristwatch with a single lap time, so the second obs
    is just a visual check on the watch to verify the path and speed.
    I was able to find a better stopwatch later to verify the
    start time. USA 186 was about 93 s late on 05338 elset.
    Shadow exit at 27 degrees NNE.
    At the next pass (29 NNW), it was too cloudy again.
    
    The site was given a fake number 9983:
    9983 +59.3260 -018.4820 11    Fruvik,Värmdö,Sweden
    
    28888 05 042A   9983 F 20060112180752520 17 25 1258031+561239 19 I+030
