QRPickle space feed
QRPickle's Satellites screen lists the next passes of amateur satellites over your station, ISS SSTV events and ARISS school contacts. The orbits and the event list come from a small file that GitHub builds every 6 hours; the passes are computed on the CYD itself, so your location never leaves it.
