Notes
-----
1.  NORAD Catalog Number is also known as U.S. Space Command (USSPACECOM)
    object number and NASA catalog number.
2.  The numbers listed first in the "Kosmos Numbers" column are the designators
    assigned by the Russian Federation.  Formerly, NORAD had sometimes assigned
    different designators due to confusion in first tracking tripple-launched
    satellites. Recently, NORAD switched the designators of GLONASS satellites
    to the Russian ones back to Kosmos 2206 and perhaps to even earlier
    launched satellites.
    Recently, the GLONASS Control Center has switched the Kosmos numbers of 
    GLONASS 796 and 712 to 2411 and 2413 respectively in its GLONASS status 
    reports. It is not known if this is a real change or just a typographical 
    error.
3.  Channel number, k, indicates L1 and L2 carrier frequencies:
       L1   =  1602. + 0.5625 k  (MHz)
         k
       L2   =  1246. + 0.4375 k  (MHz)
         k
4.  Status codes:
    Res = satellite not in service but held in reserve.
    OK  = satellite fully operational.
    UNH = satellite currently flagged unhealthy.
    CHK = satellite undergoing checkout and commissioning.
    The date listed is the date the satellite was removed from service (Moscow
    Time) as reported by the Coordinational Scientific Information Center,
    Moscow.
5.  All GLONASS satellites employ cesium atomic clocks.
6.  The first GLONASS satellite was launched on 12-Oct-82.  GLONASS 1 through
    82 are no longer in service.
7.  GLONASS 40 and 41 were launched with the Etalon 1 laser ranging satellite.
    GLONASS 42 and 43 were launched with Etalon 2.
8.  The GLONASS numbering scheme used in this table includes the 8 "dummy"
    satellites orbited as ballast along with "real" satellites on the first 7
    GLONASS launches.  The second number in the "GLONASS Numbers" column is
    that assigned by the Russian Space Forces.
9.  New GLONASS channel allocations were introduced in September 1993 aimed at
    reducing interference to radio astronomy.  Note the use of the same channel
    on pairs of antipodal satellites.
10. The most recent triple GLONASS launch took place on 25-Dec-06 at 20:18 UTC.
    GLONASS 715 and 717 became usable on 3-Apr-07 at 03:30 UTC (ref. NAGU
    043-070404 and 044-070404). GLONASS 716, transmitting on frequency channel
    0, is not yet operational.
11. GLONASS 701, 712, 713, 714, 715, 716, and 717 are GLONASS-M satellites.
12. GLONASS 711 is a development or prototype GLONASS-M satellite. It has been
    set unhealthy since 9-Jul-06 (ref. RSA).
13. The frequency channel for GLONASS 712 was switched from 4 to 5 on 
    12-Feb-07 (ref. Czech Technical University).
14. GLONASS 783 has been set unhealthy since 25-May-07 at 02:44 UTC (ref. NAGU
    066-0705250.
15. GLONASS 787 had been set unhealthy since 12-Sep-06 at 16:39 UTC (ref. NAGU 
    147-060913) and was withdrawn from service on 16-Apr-07 (ref. NAGU
    052-070425).
16. GLONASS 791 has been set unhealthy since 5-Feb-07 at 21:11 UTC (ref. NAGU
    023-070206).
17. GLONASS 793 had been set unhealthy since 21-Sep-06 at 21:45 UTC (ref. NAGU
    148-060922) and was withdrawn from service on 16-Apr-07 (ref. NAGU 
    053-070425).
18. GLONASS 794 has been set unhealthy since 19-Apr-07 at 21:38 UTC (ref. NAGU
    048-070420).
19. Some GLONASS satellites are temporarily unusable at times due to power
    problems while the satellites are in their eclipse seasons.
20. Number of GLONASS satellites currently in service: 16.
21. Number of GLONASS satellites currently usable: 12.

23. Next GLONASS launch is expected in September 2007.

    Geomatics Engineering, University of New Brunswick.
