Kevin, The NASA.ALL Keps are issued and updated weekly, normally Friday, as they have been for literally decades. The on line tracker widget gets Keps directly, and so will be as up to date as Celestrak and Space Track. Two different systems, and purposes, which is why there is a difference.
You will see a similar situation with ARISSat-1 as it slowly descends. Which is a good chance to get another plug in for the Chicken Little Contest. 73s, Alan WA4SCA -----Original Message----- From: amsat-bb-boun...@amsat.org [mailto:amsat-bb-boun...@amsat.org] On Behalf Of Kevin Deane Sent: Wednesday, October 05, 2011 3:33 PM To: amsat-bb@amsat.org Subject: [amsat-bb] ISS Keps So here we are again, Amsat shows the ISS in the right spot but the keps it gives out for automatic updates are around 6 minutes off again. I know about the boosting and why they are off, just dont ubderstand WHY they are good on the online tracker and not anything else?
