Object K very close to Echo AOS/LOS

Just had a low (11 deg) pass to the west over the Pacific Ocean with
unobstructed AOS and LOS bearings. Object K matches AOS and LOS within about
30 seconds as near as I could tell. LOS appeared to be about 30 seconds
behind Object K's predicted setting, +/- 15 seconds, watching the S meter on
the FT-847 in SSB mode for signal strength. Hard to be precise with this
modulation and my ears!
Was getting TLM with D700 with just one LED lit on the S meter.
