Thanks Kenneth,
My apologies re. my previous statement regarding the position of 
Suitsat,  I was using an early set of keps, I would agree with Kenneth 
that it's only around 1.5 minutes ahead of the ISS. I became aware of 
this last night after the 11:34 utc pass and checking the doppler Frq. 
as it passed over.  Great news that someone has finally got the  
telemetry. Well done Richard!.
