I got it at twilight this morning after a night of comet imaging. It was on its way out to apogee at a range of 120,000 km or so.
According to Horizons it should have been at 00 10 42.42 -04 00 27.0. The attached shows it a bit northeast of that but it looks as if the Horizons ephemeris is pretty good. This is a 60s exposure so the magnitude is meaningless since the image was trailed.
