Subj: Changes to AMSAT-NA TLE Distribution for August 2
Path: IZ3LSV<I0OJJ<GB7CIP<VK2RZ<KC9UHI<KA1VSC<WG3K
Sent: 240805/1522Z 6877@WG3K.#SMD.MD.USA.NOAM LinBPQ6.0.24
Two Line Elements or TLEs, often referred to as Keplerian elements or keps
in the amateur community, are the inputs to the SGP4 standard mathematical
model of spacecraft orbits used by most amateur tracking programs. Weekly
updates are completely adequate for most amateur satellites. TLE bulletin
files are updated daily in the first hour of the UTC day. New bulletin
files will be posted immediately after reliable elements become available
for new amateur satellites. More information may be found at
https://www.amsat.org/keplerian-elements-resources/.
{This spot for changes to TLEs when applicable. Can be eliminated or
replaced if none.}
{Do note that our Manual of Style specifies that we ALWAYS use first & last
names, callsign separated by commas, and then the title of the AMSAT
officer, if any. See example below. Same style applies to persons
referenced in story bodies, as well as in attributions.}
[ANS thanks Joe Fitzgerald, KM1P, AMSAT Orbital Elements Manager for the
above information]
