'Missed it! A bit late getting in position by small tree for binoc. prop
and was looking a bit too far toward North for it; made a sweep a little
more South and there it was! Couldn't get binoc. on it before it zipped
behind tree tops to SE.

Hey, at least I didn't mention anything about any "probing".

I watched with naked eye a very bright and fast-moving star-like ISS go
directly overhead a week or so ago. 'Tried binoculars on it, but
couldn't hold 'em steady enough.
BTW, it reminds me: Early one morning in winter of '77, I was
eastbound across southern edge of Mojave Desert west of Victorville,
CA, and suddenly saw bright flash high in the sky in front of me. I
pulled over and stopped to watch more closely. Immediately as I exited
the car, I saw the flash again and continued to watch the spot in the
sky. 'Could easily see that it was a tumbling rocket; that would flash
brightly when the relative angles were in Goldilocks alignment, but I
could still see the silvery object between flashes while I knew where
to look.

Let us know what happens
Sure.
You can, however, see it yourself.
When viewed from Claremore, the ISS is visible:
Friday, 26 April
Time Azimuth (Bearing) Elevation
Start 20:23:50 290 deg (WNW)
Mid 20:26:40 229 deg (SW) 29 deg
End 20:29:30 165 deg (SSE)
Saturday, 27 April
Time Azimuth (Bearing) Elevation
Start 19:32:50 305 deg (NW)
Mid 19:36:00 228 deg (SW) 64 deg
End 19:39:10 142 deg (SE)
The visibility on Saturday will be better for you. The times, of
course,
are 24-hour times.
