It is likely [but not certain by any means] that they are correct - although on the pilot forum there are some who have noted discrepancies in different reports as to the data. This will only be 'solved' by an independent investigation - something unlikely and nearly impossible in our overly politicized and secretive world.
I understand this but still don't see how it could differentiate between identical tracks on both the north and south arc? CNN said the satellite was geo-stationary, therefore there would be no difference in the D2 value. Therefore there would be no difference between identical tracks on both the north and south arcs.
