Hi Steve,
Make sure that your workstation time is the same. The best is to sync agains a NTP server on the internet.
Have a look at: www.pool.ntp.org, there you can find a ntp server that is close to you.

I have noticed that when I update the Keplerian Data for my location on SatPC32 and generate a list of passes they all seem to be about 5 minutes different than the predictions from the AMSAT website. This is for the earliest pass, and I am using the exact GPS coordinates for my location.
So which do I rely on? Which predictions should I consider the "gold standard" for passes?
