    Hi All
    
    USA 103, Lacrosse 2, USA 89 PKM and DMSP B5D2-8.
    
    Tonight's observations of USA 103 are a bit strange. It was 13s late at
    10:10 UT but 15s early at 10:22 UT. Checked obs carefully to be sure.
    Perhaps because the second obs was taken from a different part of the orbit
    than usual?  Both obs of the USA 89 PKM were noticeably east of the
    predicted path (~0.4 deg for the first obs).
