According to CALT (in the article above) they have started to add data logging and active tracking equipment to the booster(s?) from this flight onwards in prepartion for tests of parachute landing of rocket stages, which will start sometime next year.

Does this mean that CALT might consider reusing these boosters if the parachute tests are successful enough?

There are Chinese sources with the serial numbers (CZ-3B and YZ-1) ?

43647 has lowered her orbit, probably going to stop at the A-1 position.
43648 has passed A-1 already, coming to A-8 now.
