Changes to AMSAT TLE Distribution for 28 February 2025

NOTICE: In an effort to minimize confusion between sources of two line element sets, AMSAT is adopting the convention of listing the USSF/NORAD Satellite Catalog name first, followed by any secondary name or names in parentheses. For example "POEM 4 (BGS ARPIT)" was added recently where "POEM 4" is the name that appears in the US Space Force Satellite Catalog, and "BGS ARPIT" is the name best known within the amateur satellite community. Expect name changes for affected satellites in the coming weeks as this change is fully implemented.
The following satellite has been added to this week's AMSAT TLE distribution:
HADES-R (SO-124) NORAD Cat ID 62690
The following satellites have been deleted from this weeks AMSAT TLE distribution:
SO-120 NORAD Cat ID 56992 Decayed from orbit on or about 11 February 2025 XW-2C NORAD Cat ID 40906 Decayed from orbit on or about 16 February 2026
