NOTES:
----------
(1) Usual poor winter conditions -heavy cirrus but managed to get
     a few but still trying to sort some of them out - toop many
     satellites up there!

(2) Hope to report rest tomorrow- meanwhile here OTV-4 and a
     possible unknown - do not find an obvious match.

Cheers
Greg
