Hi Greg,
Thanks. Will the R7 (now R8) version use today's epoch date when the NEAs are updated? It looked like R6 was using the epoch date that was the farthest into the future. After I repopulated the MP DB using the full MPC download last month, none of the NEAs had their epoch dates changed to the current date, they were retaining the 2022 Jan 21 epoch. As new NEAs were downloaded they were assigned the 'Today's' date for their elements, as expected.
