    I have a bit of doubt as to the correct reference stars of the final two
    observations of 07027C.
    
    07027A was 1.5 s early, and on the track predicted by my preliminary elset below
    (71701). 07027C was about 73 s late relative its preliminary elset (71708), due
    to a subsequent manoeuvre.

    I expect to post updated elements later.
