    using the alldat & the parameters you posted
    above sat was ~ 1.7 deg from the moon.
    not sure if that was close enough ref your
    message.  && I do not know if this sat flashes.
    I'm not finding any sat closer than this one at
    the time.

    At 14:37:05 +- 5 sec UT (09:37:05 CDT) 17 August 2003,
    I happened to look up at the moon and saw a bright, 
    brief flash very near but slightly west of ("below") 
    the southern ("left-hand") cusp.
