I was able to find the Milstar 6 payload over longitude 93.4 west
last night.  Since I had not seen it for 10 days, its mean motion
is somewhat uncertain.  It now seems to be moving east rather rapidly.

It was about magnitude 8.5 and steady only about 15 degrees before
being directly opposite the sun.
