NOTES:
----------
(1) Please delete positions for 20641 90050A reported yesterday and
     replace with those given above - tried to be "too clever" and made a
     basic mistake.

(2) Object 28158 04-004A DSP F22 difficult to measure - trailed image of
     varying intensity as satellite tumbled so not always possible to
     determine exact centre of trail.

Cheers
Greg
