Two more decayers from my Decay Watch page at
http://www.wingar.demon.co.uk/satevo/dkwatch/ :
Object: #20339 = 89- 94 B = Molniya 3-36 r
Notice prepared: 2000 Jun 28 17:45 UTC
Decay predictions:

SpaceCom Jun 27 21:31 Jun 29 09:56 +-1d 59.4 S 172.9 E

SatEvo Jun 28 17:45 Jun 27 18:07 +-2h 63.2 S 103.1 E
Final elset:
Molniya 3-36 r 1532 x 82 km
1 20339U 89094B 00179.73429345 .46088658 13474-4 42025-3 0 86

Note: Despite the fact that SpaceCom are predicting this decay for
tomorrow, the 29th, it has flagged its latest decay warning as the
final one. Also, the elsets available from OIG say "Decayed: 2000/06/27"
in the header line. If the above elset is close to correct, my analysis
suggests that this decayed soon after perigee on the that orbit,
with a possibility that it may have survived for one more rev
with decay at about 19:37 UTC near 62.7 S, 83.7 E. My own elsets
for these two revs (perigee uncertain) are:
Molniya 3-36 r 1323 x 88 km
