Subject: GSFC Predicts

Following on from Philip´s comments about the new GSFC Tivs for GFO-1. The
GSFC people have agreed to regularly produce predicts for GFO-1 & their
tivs will always include the latest available Navy radar & SLR data. They
will also be up to date with any maneuvers.

The GSFC predicts for Meteor 3M & GFO-1 will most likely continue to be
issued on a bi-weekly basis and along with the time bias functions that
Philip is now supplying for both of these products, should lead to a much
improved success rate for SLR on these two satellites.

So far we have found the GSFC predicts to be of a very good quality & would
encourage all stations to routinely use them for both GFO-1 & Meteor3M.

For users of the Real-time status exchange, we have changed our tiv
provider code for GSFC from SGP to GOD to match the code in the tbf´s.

Regards,
Randall.
