I have just updated my Decay watch WWW page at

      http://www.wingar.demon.co.uk/satevo/dkwatch/

The notices cover:

#25849 = 99- 36 C = Molniya 3-50 platform (decayed this morning UTC)
#25848 = 99- 36 B = Molniya 3-50 r1 (predicted decay July 24)
#17041 = 86- 79 D = Molniya 3-30 r2 (decay tomorrow, July 22)
#25780 = 99- 32 D = Iridium 14A Smart Dispenser (decay July 25)

The latter object, a new addition, is observable from mid-northern
latitudes as it moves southbound into eclipse in the evening sky.

Thanks to several SeeSaters for comments (all positive, so far) about
this new style of Decay Watch notes. Feedback is always welcome :)
