Hi Dom, Emily, Ed, William, et al,

Wow, you've sure whetted our appetites...I'm hearing from  satellite 
operators that I haven't heard from in years!!
Nice work...we need just this to promote both P3E and EAGLE..

Emily, we had, as I remember, "the failed orbit" on Oscar 10, ~ 27° inc, as 
I remember, and it was just great...we had Europe for about three weeks, 
then the Americas, and then the Pacific rim stuff for another three 
weeks...there is no "bad" HEO orbit!!

Dom, I use "t" on the IT map page to go to any date...Then try "g" on the 
same page for one ground track, then "f" to advance the sub-sat position 
rapidly...dazzling!!!  Or "ng" for any number of ground tracks..how nice to 
see HOURS of access time....

               Pulling for P3E...
