If I'm reading this complicated page correctly
(http://spaceflight.nasa.gov/realdata/sightings/SSapplications/Post/JavaSSOP/orbit/ISS/SVPOST.html),
these should now be the correct keps for the ISS:

ISS
1 25544U 98067A   16104.53283479  .00016717  00000-0  10270-3 0  9033
2 25544  51.6438  20.5148 0001725  29.1025 331.0223 15.54208672 34925

73,

Paul, N8HM
