From Ray Hoad on the keps mailing list:
The NORAD ID # for NO-84 (PSAT) and NO-83 (BRICSat) is being changed to align with the Satellite Name and corresponding NORAD ID # as shown on the SpaceTrack website maintained by Joint Space Operations Center (JSpOC). The various names, IDs, and correct TLE's for these cubesat satellites have finally settled down and AMSAT is making one last change to align with JSpOC. These changes will eliminate future confusion by matching the data from SpaceTrack.
The new ID designations are as follows:
PSAT (NO 84) = 90720 = ULTRASat 1 = 40654 = 2015-025D BRICSat (NO 83) = 90729 = ULTRASat 10 = 40655 = 2015-025E
Please adjust your tracking programs accordingly.
