[amsat-bb] AO-40 keps

[Mineo Wakita <je9pel@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I tested to track AO-40 using four keps of AMSAT and NORAD.

   [a, b]  AMSAT ... http://www.amsat.org/amsat/keps/
   [c, d]  NORAD ... http://www.celestrak.com/NORAD/elements/


   [a (#16)] ... It's old kep, but yet most exact.
   [b (#39)] ... It's new kep, but yet there is a time lag.
   [d (#39)] ... It's new kep, but yet there is a time lag.
   [e (#32)] ... It's STRV-1C kep, but yet more exact as AO-40..
