Seeing how _I_ work with the entire |satcat on a daily basis, I must inform you that the Unclass elsets that are |found at this BBS cannot be the entire list. That's right, you are not |allowed to know about ALL the Unclass birds (or pieces thereof). For |BTW: I cannot give out Unclass elset files except to government agencies via |a written request. Even this is subject to approval. Sorry. I highly |recommend using NASA's satcat (found at your favorite astro BBS or ftp site). Well, until you can give them out, his best bet is Kelso's list of 180+ two-lines, Molczan's list of 700+ and the RAID BBS with far more. | -- Bruce Watson (wats@scicom) Bulletin 629-49 Item 6700 Extract 75,131
