    Yes. Rob Matson's SkyMap has an option to search for sun or moon transits. 
    I've used it with success. 
    
    It used to be available here: http://www.satobs.org/orbsoft.html
    but that link is now broke. 
    
    Mike McCants states near the bottom of this page: http://www.io.com/~mmccants/programs/index.html
    that if anyone needs SkyMap 6.6 to "please send [him an] email."
