John: Check your iridflar.cfg file and make sure that it is writing iridflar.out to the same directory (usually C:\Program Files\Ciel\cat\satellites. Here's what my iridflar.cfg file looks like:
[IRIDFLAR] EphemFile=iridium.tle CityFile=skymap.cty SiteName=Washington D.C. ReportFile=iridflar.out StartDate=2004/7/28 StartTime=12:00:00 Lat=38.8908333333333 Long=-76.9538888888889 Alt=0 Zone=-4 SearchDur=2 SunAng= -6.00 MinElev=10.00 MaxMirror= 4.00 DayMagLim=-6.0 NightMagLim= 2.0 Units=Metric Source=Sun Batch=Yes Brief=No LocalStart=Yes AutoDate=No ThreeLines=No Report=Yes FYI there are newer versions of both QuickSat and Iridflar available.
