[amsat-bb] Tracking objects from the SSO-A launch

Further suggestions: for Suomi100 use object 43788, for CSIM use object 
43793,
for MinXSS 2 use object 43758, and for SnugLite use object 43786.

Still no TLE set for Jordan-OSCAR 97 (ex JY1Sat) from SpaceTrack.org.
Therefore I determined these TLEs myself from doppler measurements:

Jordan-OSCAR 97
1 60001U 18601A   18343.03869085  .00000100  00000-0  15114-4 0 01
2 60001  97.7674  52.0912 0012867 257.7608 103.0072 14.95132150 01
