spotted a flashing satellite (Bradford)

I spotted a tumbling or spinning satellite from 11:05 PM to 11:12. Picked it up around Mizar/Alcor and followed it to near Altair. It looked like it reach magnitude zero or perhaps a minus value a couple of times.

Reported it on the RASC Toronto forums.

I looked it up on CalSky and learned about the TELKOM 3 satellite. The path in Heaven's Above looked correct.
