I have and continue to use the NASA 2-line keplerian elements sets posted in these groups. Much nicer than waiting for the "big brown envelope" from Goddard. However, other than dialing up the Celestial BBS for the latest elements, is there an ftp site I could grab them from? I know about the nachos.ssesco.com site, but these are only updated weekly. Is there a way to get the bulletins as they are issued via the net? Comments/suggestions/"you're crazy" letters welcome... 73 -- Ollie Eisman (N6LTJ) ollie@hydra.unm.edu (505)277-4845 3505 Lafayette Rd. NE #3, Albuquerque, New Mexico 87131, USA

I get the elements mailed to me directly from Dr. Kelso at the same time (or before) he posts them to various newsgroups. I'm pretty certain he only gets them on a weekly basis (or at least only releases them that often). If there's a faster way we'd sure like to know-- Chris -- Chris Elmquist, N0JCF Internet: elmquist@SSESCO.com AMPRN: N0JCF@WB0GDB.MN.USA.NA BellNet: (612) 785-3516
