N0LSW's request for keps evokes a response that is of benefit to 
all, please help spread the word: 
 
1) All requests to subscribe to "keps", "amsat-bb", or "ans" should 
be mailed to "listserv@amsat.org" 
 
2) "keps@amsat.org" and "ans@amsat.org" are only to be used for 
formatted packet bulletins, and by designated AMSAT personnel 
providing those functions. 
 
3) The selected Element Sets distributed weekly are chosen based 
on amateur interest, i.e the OSCARs, weathersats, and visible or 
public objects of broad general interest (Hubble, SARA, etc.). 
Requests for additions to the list are entertained if the object 
fits the above criteria.  This is done primarily to keep the size 
of the packet bulletins down and reduce bandwidth on the various 
networks. 
 
4) Also, there exists several good landline BBSs to obtain all 
available elements sets, which are updated more often, if the user 
has special requirements. 
 
The primary source is Goddard SFC Orbital Information Group.  You 
can subscribe to this free on-line service by writing to: 
 
              NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center 
              Project Operations Branch/513 
              Attn: Orbital Information Group 
              Greenbelt, Maryland 20771  USA 
 
Other landline sources which update from the OIG are: 
 
  Dallas Remote Imaging Group (DRIG), which is also the AMSAT BBS, 
  allows access to AMSAT information free of charge: 214-394-7438. 
 
  Celestial BBS: 513-427-0674, also free for keplerian bulletins. 
 
Kevin, thanks for your interest.  Any questions from anyone about 
keps, please ask.
