Unfortunately it is not that simple. That '+/- 8 hours' should actually read '+/- 8 days'. It is simply impossible to predict the decay time with such a high accuracy so far in advance.

I received another email from Dr. Kelso
this morning asking if I would like to have the BY70-1 TLEs also placed in the Amateur Radio listing as well. I told him that if he could do so, that would be great. I'm sure it will be taken care of later today.

Well, I suppose you could send in a request to Dr.
Kelso, like I did. :)

CubeSat.txt is
OK,
but it's an added step

All,
I received a
nice reply from Dr. Kelso to
the email I sent him
yesterday. He has added the
BY70-1 TLEs to the CubeSats
listing (http://www.celestrak.com/NORAD/elements/cubesat.txt). This file should be available
to most software tracking
applications (at least is is
available as a source in
AmsatDroid Free) and will be
updated more frequently
compared to the BY70-1 TLEs
provided through AMSAT.
