I imagine there is some software out there that could let us know the time of day that occurs?

Have you seen that video of a mount slewing it's butt off tracking the ISS?
True Peter, there is software for predictions and I was using it a couple yrs ago but gaven up now, chances are extremely high (Pun) due to location ect, chances do improve a tad if prepared to travel hundreds of ks or so ?
& No, havent seen the Vid, I actually had the clutches undone, man-handled the scope whilst eye in the finder ?
