Lituanicasat-1 was on for the 1755utc pass over Ohio today. N1PCE was the only station heard and worked. It's at 310km now so it won't be up for much longer. Work it while you can.
The next pass starts for EN91 at 1928utc and goes through the middle of the US. The footprint is not very big but if you are in it, you'll be able to work it. It fades as it spins but the rate is fairly fast so you can easily make qso's on it.
Make sure you have the latest keps as they are changing rapidly as the bird slows down.
