The following improved orbital elements, 06F1-001 by S. Nakano, 06F1-000 are from 174 observations 1991 Oct. 6 to 1992 Aug. 9. Perturbations by all nine planets and five minor planets were taken into account. The mean residual is +/- 0.98 arc second. 06F1-001 Epoch = 06F1-000 1992 Aug. 6.0 06F1-001 TT 06F1-000 06F1-001 T = 06F1-000 1992 July 24.50721 +/- 0.00008 06F1-001 (m.e.)
