Subject: Two-Line Orbital Element Sets (TLE333)
To: ham-space@ucsd.edu

The most current orbital elements from the NORAD two-line element sets are
carried on the Celestial BBS, (513) *253-9767*, and are updated daily (when
possible).  Documentation and tracking software are also available on this
system.  The Celestial BBS may be accessed 24 hours/day at 300, 1200, 2400,
4800, or 9600 bps using 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity.

Element sets (also updated daily) and some documentation and software are
available via anonymous ftp from archive.afit.af.mil (129.92.1.66) in the
directory pub/space.

As a service to the satellite user community, the most current of these
elements are uploaded weekly to sci.space.news and rec.radio.info.
This week's elements are provided below.
