Last clear evening before a bank of rain moves in tomorrow. Some patchy cloud around but cool, 10.4 deg C, 795mm Hg (for some reason my weather station has stopped reading in millibars). First NOSS obs for some time, followed by a few from USA 129. 28537 05 004A 2751 G 20050927203309710 17 25 2004200+114668 67 S+040 05 28541 05 004C 2751 G 20050927203404740 17 25 2039606+214214 57 S+040 05 24680 96 072A 2751 G 20050927204233670 17 25 0215085+675398 18 S+035 05 24680 96 072A 2751 G 20050927204254660 17 25 0326734+721182 96 S+035 05 24680 96 072A 2751 G 20050927204317390 17 25 0504616+740220 97 S+045 05 24680 96 072A 2751 G 20050927204200550 17 25 0105901+574674 97 S+035 05 I had a higher pass of USA 129 than Jean-Paul in Lannion. All of the USA 129 points are consistently early by ~4.3 seconds; but I was using 5 day-old elsets (Mike's 05265.83010893) as the wife was using the computer before I went out. So I *guess* that it has manoeuvred in the last 24 h (even though Pierre's last report stated it was on time). Another go with Mike's latest elset (05269.83359104 ) gives me a time error of -0.018 s, which confirms to me that a manoeuvre has taken place and our group has been onto it.
