    After searching from 22:09 to about 22:30 at 1-power and occasional
    scans with 10*50
    along the track of Ted 70019/21 and Mike and Pierre latest, I found an
    object moving from near delta Cas to two reasonably well identified
    positions. USA 224 was due an hour later, and no other candidate
    identified.
    The track was parallell to, and with same speed, about 56 s early on
    Ted's 70001 elset !
    Unfortunately the sky clouded completely while I was analysing.
