Phil, it was literally just b4 I made the midnight attempt, so late on the 14th. I did not even have time to try and report it here but then saw your post the next day. I had not done a refresh of the NEAs in many days so therefore the addition, I guess. Later, when I looked at it at the MPC search page, it only had 1 day of arc with ~50 obs. It now has 73 obs over 3 days with an uncertainty of 5 and 8 obs at 12th mag by Aorangi Iti Observatory, Lake Tekapo. I don't recall the uncertainty on the late evening of the 14th. I actually used the elements at the MPC search page first and then got them into ST using the MPC NEA Today just prior to my first attempt. B4 my attempt at 4am, I verified positions using Horizons. They agreed with those in ST to within 1sec RA and 11" DEC.
