All,
	I have looked at the Orbit 107 ATS v001 
(IBEX_2010_360_00_00_v001.txt) and I approve.

	The standard "PL mode unknown at the beginning" constraint 
violation is the only one.

	The PL commands match the STF v001 file 
(IBEX_2010_361_01_04_v001.stf) per Ken's script.

	PL operations all make sense WRT 15 Re times, ascending and descending.

	Ground station times line up nicely with the transmitter on times.

	Battery cell balancing is > 1 hour from anything.

	The sun-pointing maneuver leaves us in a safe direction at 
the time of the maneuver and at succeeding ascent and descent, and 
takes place about 14.5 hours before the beginning of ST outage:
