These would be the LoRa sats initially spotted by PE2BZ and then expanded on as I kept locating additional objects.
The LoRa parameters were reversed and payloads have been decoded ever since.

… they have been tracked by the tinyGS Network since discovery w/ thousands of packets decoded. It’s very interesting to see how the payloads change (less ‘filler’ bytes) when in-range of Russian ground stations.
