I was scanning the sky, and noticed a flash. So I stopped, and went to see what was the cause, Hotbird 1.

As I watched the show from it, I noticed a bright sat near the edge of the feild of view. I started to follow it, the object was not stable in attitide, ie was slowly flashing. It gave at least one bright flash.

At 10:32:12 utc ( Nov 15 )  it was around

7 h 13 m R.A
-22 deg 38 min Dec

I show nothing to be there, at the time = so I call it a unid. What ever it was, it was oh so nice.

Now to see, if I have a problem with the tle data, are then wait and see if a iridium sat was retired.

Thank goodness for my video gear, it's come in great.
