Actually, it is a bit-drop, code 0x10 instead of 0x30.
There is a later elset,

84041  A
1 14940U 84041  A 97054.50869073 -.00000029  00000-0  00000 0 0  5243
2 14940   9.3359  44.6163 0003435 308.0495  52.0156  1.00224701 14671

in el970301, but Allen's update logic obviously cannot delete the bad set.
(A more serious problem is that if Epoch is bad, and too high, the elset
will not be updated until the bad date has passed!)
