I was able to observe 09-01A / USA 202 for the first time now that its westward drift has brought it above the trees. It is probably the brightest of all the geostationary objects. The unidentified object was found during an unsuccessful search for 99-17A, the DSP satellite stranded in GTO. It was on a similar track to that expected for 99-17A but somewhat lower. After a cloudy interval I was unable to locate it again.
