CANVAS is alive!

Based on its signal here is a first TLE update for all the satellites:

INCA-2
1 98333U          26097.61799416  .00000000  00000-0  50000-4 0    05

Not clear yet but we may have received also MAMBO and INCA-2, let’s keep watching and try to verify it.

Given that the TLE were off, I’m going to re-schedule future observations.

EDIT: The TLE sets still are not very accurate as we still missing information like inclination, however they should be much better than the initial ones
