One thing to add that you guys may not be aware of: SkyTools keeps multiple orbital elements for a single object and then picks the one with an epoch closest in time to when you are calculating the position. So for close approaches I normally have HORIZONS output elements every few hours and then pick one from the beginning of the close approach, one from closest approach, and one from after the close approach and add all three sets of elements.

For very fast movers, I add sets of elements every hour or so throughout.

   

I've tried several times to add more than one set of osculating elements from Horizons. Mainly because their are two windows 24 hours apart to attempt an observation. In the sample shot, I added a set from Aug 3 7UT due to the rock being high (66°) around that time. I went to add the next one on Aug 2 4UT, again due to elevation (68°). As you can see, It did not take the Aug 2 time and I tried two times by clicking "Enter New Minor Planet". Then pasting from Horizons the osculating element set text copied. See image of set.

   

When I bring up the rock from the list of minor planets, only the 3 date is in the list.
