This is a wide path, 1.1s duration, and has Karl's home on the exact northern limit, and Kirk's home on the exact southern limit. I'd recommend instead that Kirk go up to the UCSC Upper Meadow bike crossing for best odds, and he'd still be south of my track at Cabrillo Observatory. With 1.1s duration, using the absolute lowest integration is less needed, but don't go overboard on long integration. Maybe 8x max? 16x only if absolutely necessary, as that would give only 2 occulted integration points.
