I offer the following search elements, based on my guess that a reboost occurred on 2016 Aug 11. The 79301 and 79302
TLEs are for the earliest likely perigee of manoeuvre; the others for the latest. Two mean motions are offered for both
manoeuvre times; 15.69 rev/d has occurred more often than 15.65 rev/d, but the sample is small.

The object could pass significantly earlier or later than predicted. A wide field of view is recommended.
