IR confirms your post Maurice. All sats and orbits are fine. No anomolies whatsoever. The last four sats from the Soyuz launch are each being sent to four different planes whereas the sats from the first four launches went to four distinctive planes. They are drifting these sats slowly to conserve fuel. That is why the last four are taking longer to reach thier final orbits than the others. Again, no problems. In fact, they will do this in subsequent launches probably July's. They are still expecting a Delta II launch within the first two weeks of June.

Maurice, your understanding is superior and what you say is accurate. I am talking about the satellites before they ascend to mission altitude. However, I have no reason to doubt G* and therefore take their assurance that the satellites are in good health at face value.
