Thanks, I just tried the CalSky site and I did get it to work. If
you set it at the Astronomer level it will find smaller satellites
that transit the sun.

Are there any software packages that I can install and run on my own
computer that can find locally visible transits of artificial
satellites across the disc of the sun or moon.
