[GCARC] ISS watchers (and radio listeners) - 10:01-10:07 pm tonight in NJ!

[Jim n2gxj]

Rising in the North-West just after 22:01 Local tonight (10pm), and then
passing near overhead, the International Space Station is flying over NJ,
and should be visible as a bright dot, reflecting sunlight, until it enters
Earth's shaddow in the East-South-East about 6 minutes later.

But there's more!
Want to try and hit a repeater that is flying at 17500 MPH?
Or at least hear chatter of other hams trying to use it?
Good luck if you do try!  Here's the details:

ORS (Kenwood D710GA) – *STATUS* - *Configured**.* Default mode set for
cross band repeater (FM 145.990 MHz up {PL 67} & 437.800 MHz down).

Minute-by-minute pass details good enough for anywhere in NJ, including the
Jersey Shore (hold the chart over your head, as this is a star chart, not a
compas chart
