Note:  Times are LOCAL SUN TIME for MID Northern Latitudes.  Use this to
       plan your mobile operations during commuting and distant travels.

The "****"'s above just mean that during those hours you will get several
passes.  Here are some simple rules for PCsat's orbit:

1) You will get about 3 passes during two separate periods per day
2) If you hear PCsat, then you will probably hear it 100 minutes later
3) For high passes, a similar pass will occur 30 minutes earlier each day.
4) Once a week, add 100 minutes to this routine to stay on the high pass.
