Subject: Weekly Tracking Records

Dear Colleagues,

Getting more than 200 satellite tracks in one week
is noteworthy (averaging almost 30 tracks per day)
and requires cooperation of the weather.

Nine sites have achieved this superior level of
performance since 1995. Hartebeesthoek just recently
passed this milestone.

Here are the sites that have achieved this
performance level:

Location Frequency Comments
------------- --------- ----------------------------------
Monument Peak 30 5 different years
Graz 9 5 different years
Yarragadee 8 all in 2002, current record holder
Mt Stromlo 3 1999 and 2000
Orroral 2 closed Nov 1998
Greenbelt 1 2000 week 44
Hartebeesthoek 1 2002 week 28
Wettzell 1 2002 week 14
Herstmonceux 1 2002 week 14


Below is a list of sites that have surpassed this
bar, since 1995, ordered by weekly pass total. Here again
to avoid accounting scandals only actual passes are
counted (i.e. not pass segments).
