    Assuming a direct appulse, and adding the resulting reduction to Kevin's obs 48 hours ago, yields:
    
    1 70001U          11266.14630787  .00000000  00000-0  00000-0 0    03
    2 70001   4.6824 277.8581 0351151 234.5568 182.8061  0.94712293    04
    
    I offer this is as a preliminary solution, in case anyone else is in a position to observe it tonight.
    
    Except for an apparently brief manoeuvre on Sep 20, AHEF 1 has not manoeuvred since about Sep 13 UTC, which is
    unexpected. It had been on track to achieve synchronous orbit on Oct 03. Why the apparent hiatus?
