Hi!

Later today, I will drive to a spot 50 miles/80km or so 
south of downtown Phoenix in Pinal County for a couple of 
satellite passes.  I will park on the DM32/DM42 grid 
boundary (112 degrees West) down there in time for an AO-51
pass immediately followed by an SO-50 pass.  Both passes
go to the east of that location, and the footprints will
cover much of North America.  

I will be on the AO-51 pass at 0144 UTC, followed by the 
SO-50 pass around 0158 UTC.  I will switch over to SO-50 
once I'm not able to hear or work AO-51, since those two 
passes have a slight overlap around 0158-0159 UTC in that 
area.  

73!
