Your Longititude and latitude are as follows:
This Geraldton airport
Latitude:28.47' 51" S Longitude: 114.42' 22" E Elevation: 33.0 m

Straight from your airport website.

You might also want to try www.heavens-above.com (http://www.heavens-above.com) . This site will not only tell you your coordinates, but will also give you a forecast of satellite passes
