[Mldxcc] FYI: International Space Station Viewing

Another excellent site for tracking ISS, Iridium flares , artificial

http://www.heavens-above.com/

By registering and then entering you location, all the information is
compiled for your location.  The amateur radio list gives the downlink
frequencies.
