Ken,
You can always find the most recent LongJiang 2 orbital elements for
GMAT in my GMAT script for LongJiang 2 here:

For further information see my web page:

By the way, I wonder why some people still continue to use the old
outdated name 'DSLWP' for this satellite. The only real official name is
'LongJiang 2'. To make it worse, several variations of the old ID are now
used. While the original IDs for the two satellites were DSLWP A1 and A2,
you now also see DSLWP 1 and 2, and DSLWP A and B, etc. All confusion
can be avoided by simply using the official name: 'LongJiang 2'.
