QIKCOM-1 pass predictions
I don't see QIKCOM-1 in the pull down menu in the AMSAT online pass predictions.
Is it reasonable to continue to use the ISS pass predictions for QIKCOM-1?

According to Bob's page on it, the host spacecraft is called SIMPL. It is listed in the new launch Keps on CelesTrak. I plugged those in and looked at the pass prediction.
29.10.2017 ISS 08:32 08:38 06 09 297 - 034 29.10.2017 SIMPL 08:32 08:38 06 09 300 - 036 29.10.2017 SIMPL 10:10 10:15 05 05 328 - 036 29.10.2017 ISS 10:11 10:16 05 05 335 - 043 29.10.2017 ISS 11:47 11:54 07 11 330 - 079 29.10.2017 SIMPL 11:47 11:54 07 11 332 - 081 29.10.2017 ISS 13:23 13:32 09 57 314 - 125 29.10.2017 SIMPL 13:23 13:32 09 61 315 - 126 29.10.2017 SIMPL 15:00 15:07 07 10 282 - 177 29.10.2017 ISS 15:01 15:07 06 10 277 - 179
So they are still close for now to use the ISS, but not much longer.
