Rick,
Chances of getting the exact time of burn up is very unlikely due to the uncertainties in atmospheric density and dynamics.
Given that each pass is only 5-10 minutes, and only a few are visible each day, I'm covering as many as I can.
Even when I add in a 5 minute each way drive to a semi dark sky lookout on the edge of the city, each attempt is only taking 20 minutes. Given the near full Moon a fully dark sky is unnecessary.
