Hi all,

 Again I noted about 8 unknowns, while observing others, and
solved all but 1.  This one had a flash period of about 6.5 secs and
a west to east trajectory. Three candidates did not match the
APPROXIMATE
positional times noted further below:

 Galaxy 9 (96033B) 6' off time
 Transtage 4 DB (01680) 3' off time and below obs track
 Courier 1B RK 9' off time

    The only two decayers, HST Solar Array and 75100C, are no
    where near the observed times on a their w to e transits.

10/98 35.3160706 N 89.8862152W 100m

UNKNOWN 011124 190639-244116 2.5 6  F APPROX.

UNKNOWN 011303 98-10-9 JN 150" 23 6.5217

Can anyone ID this one?

Jim
