Celestrak BY70-1 keps
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.

I'm not sure why it also shouldn't be in amateur.txt. CubeSat.txt is OK, but it's an added step for some uses.

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