Nice catch! With the uplink and downlin freq you should be able to determine which satellite was used.

That would be Fleetsat channel 60 on the channel authorization list. Not sure which slot but if I had to take my guess this was UFO-F7 which if I'm not mistaken replaced the aging Fleetsat-F7 orbital slot.
