I'll post the details later but last night I picked up Superbird A just in time to see the end of the phase shift. For the record it was at 03:20 UTC, 22 November. The peak flashes were +1.0 or brighter. > I'm not sure > when to look for ETS 6 now and have no idea on TDF 1.

I also observed a tumling ETS 6 but I need to recheck the times to see if there were any repeating patterns. It was near the +11.5 limiting mag. -- Cheers, Don Gardner 39.1799 N, 76.8406 W, 100m ASL http://hometown.aol.com/mir16609/ http://www.howardastro.org/ ----------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from SeeSat-L, send a message with 'unsubscribe' in the SUBJECT to SeeSat-L-request@satobs.org List archived at http://www.satobs.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
