With nearly all TLE sets for the SSO-A launch published, and many
separations increased to more suitable values, it is time to draw some
conclusions.

The following IDs are (almost) certain:
Unknown sat: obj 43768, downlink 436.73018 MHz;
MOVE-II: obj 43780, downlink 145.94993 MHz;
SNUSat 2: obj 43782;
ITASat 1: obj 43786, downlink 145.85999 MHz;
Unknown sat: obj 43787, downlink 435.5003 MHz;
EAGLET 1: obj 43790, downlink 435.20015 MHz;
ESEO: obj 43792, downlink 437.004 MHz;
CSIM: obj 43793;
RANGE-A: obj 43798, downlink 437.146 MHz;
Suomi 100: obj 43804;
Al-Farabi 2: obj 43805, downlink 436.50017 MHz;
MinXSS 2: obj 43807.

The following IDs are not certain, because the separation between
the objects is still too small:
AO 95 (ex Fox 1Cliff): either obj 43769 or obj 43771;
PWSat 2: either obj 43775 or obj 43779 (or maybe obj 43776);
JO 97 (ex JY1Sat): either obj 43803 or obj 43801, downlink 145.839085 MHz.
