  The mean apparent magnitude of Starlink Mini Direct-To-Cell (DTC) satellites
is 4.62 while the mean of magnitudes adjusted to a uniform distance of 1000 km
is 5.50. DTCs average 4.9 times brighter than other Starlink Mini spacecraft at
a common distance. We cannot currently separate the effects of the DTC antenna
itself, the different attitude modes that may be required for DTC operations
and to what extent brightness mitigation procedures were in place at the times
of our observations. In a best case scenario, where DTC brightness mitigation
is as successful as that for other Minis and the DTC antenna does not add
significantly to brightness, we estimate that DTCs will be about 2.6 times as
bright as the others based upon their lower altitudes. The DTCs spend a greater
fraction of their time in the Earth's shadow than satellites at higher
altitudes. That will offset some of their impact on astronomical observing.
