Recoveries: We recovered 1981 WC (our old 1996 MC) in the pre-dawn hours of 4 July, 1997. With our help, 1981 WC is now Minor Planet 7992!
1998 SH4 is our first multi-opposition asteroid!
We recovered 1998 AA for its second opposition on 14 February, 1999!
We recovered 6809 P-L (our old 1996 PL1 -- we lost primary designation) for its fourth opposition on 8 May, 1999! With our help, 6809 P-L is now Minor Planet 10961!
We recovered 1999 RN33 for its 2nd opposition in January of 2001 (but were beat by days by professional surveys).
We recovered 2001 NP14 for its 2nd opposition, 2001 TF45 for it's 2nd, and 2001 TS56 for its 4th opposition in January of 2003.
Surveys probably recovered our 2002 AR18 (60-day 1st opposition arc) and 2001 TQ45 (98-day 1st opposition arc) in February of 2003.
We recovered 2001 VH (52-day arc) and 2002 DR3 (86-day arc) in May of 2003.
We recovered 2000 QM26 and 2002 BP (117-day arc) in June of 2003.
We recovered 2002 KP3, 2001 YY19, and 2002 CU14 in July of 2003.
We recovered 2000 CB41 for its 2nd opposition a few arcminutes from predicted position in Sept-Oct of 2003.
We recovered 2002 LL55 in October 2003 for its 2nd opposition (54-day arc).
We recovered 2002 QC58, 2002 PR165, 2002 QB57, 2002 QL58 in November of 2003.

Attempted recoveries: our attempts to recover 1996 NR and 1996 MB appeared
to have failed (although reprocessing of the images might still bring something out).

We tried to recover 1997 YC₈, but failed (although we discovered 1999 FO₁₀ in the process!). It was later recovered by others.

We tried and failed to recover 2000 CB41 in the star clouds of the Milky Way in June of 2001.

We tried to recover 2001 QB73 on 24 Feb 2003.
