I derived the following using my observations of 2001 Aug 04 - 06 UTC:

USA 129         15.0  3.0  0.0  5.1 v
1 24680U 96072A   01218.08586806  .00025824  00000-0  35000-3 0    02
2 24680  97.9284 279.5438 0512000  68.2879 297.1755 14.76015658    06

Only the RAAN, argument of perigee, mean anomaly and mean motion were included
in the differential correction.

Mean residuals are about 0.02 deg.

I obtained the following point:
