ANNOUNCING SAT-UK-TAB'S NEW FORMAT

The following new format will be tried on Sat-UK-Tab for a week.
Satellites will now longer be mailed in groups such as NORDIC or ASTRA.
There were two main problems with this:
#1 - The mail files were WAY too big
#2 - There was no logical progression from east to west or vice versa.
Now satellites will be posted from East to West, with the following
format:

MONDAYS: Türksat 1C, DFS Kopernikus 2/3
TUESDAYS: Astra 1A-1F
WEDNESDAY: Eutelsat II-F3, II-F1, HotBird 1-3 II-F2, II-F4M
THURSDAYS: Sirius 1/2, Tele-X, Télécom 2C, TV-Sat 2, Thor 1/2, Intelsat
707
FRIDAYS: Télécom 2B, 2D, 2A, Intelsat 705
SATURDAYS: Intelsat K/803/601, Hispasat 1A/1B
SUNDAYS: Orion F1, PAS 3R/1, UPCOMING LAUNCHES

Each satellite will be posted as a seperate list - no longer will
multiple satellite be contained in one message - this cuts down on the
size. Besides, when you look for the listings for, say, Sirius, you need
no longer search for "NORDIC", but instead you can search for "SIRIUS".
Again, this is only a test phase - if you have any comments, let me
know. If it is unsuccessful or not desirable, I'll revert back on
Monday. If I hear no response, I'll take it as a good sign. Naturally,
any suggestions on a better format would be most welcome!
