Sounds like a good idea. I might need to know where the rock is observed from. I think I ran across an observatory code list somewhere that has that info.
One thing that I did try was to edit the elements of 2020 MP1 to precisely match those being used by Horizons. They were only slightly off to begin with. This put the ST position about 1.3' farther away from the Horizons position.
Best I can tell from a little digging 2020 MP1 was detected by NASA’s automated asteroid tracking system, Center for Near-Earth Object Studies (CNEOS).
