Signaling A.A.K.V.O.

Congratulations, you're free from FAMPO--Fewer Animals More People Organization! You walked out of your cell into the jungle and saw a group of these creatures which appear to be a native species here.

Now you must signal A.A.K.V.O. so you can be rescued. Fortunately, they have a satellite that circles the earth every 13 hours (moving east) and can pick up a signal fire at night. You plan to pull some boards out of the FAMPO abandoned hut and make a fire in the shape of the A.A.K.V.O. logo. But you need to know when to light it because the satellite passes over quickly.

FAMPO cleared out all of their things but they did leave their "Kill an Animal a Day" desk calendar which says June 19, which must have been yesterday. You remember before you left your mansion in Kyrgyzstan that the satellite passed over at midnight the day you left, September 3, 2014.

When should you start the fire at night (to the nearest hour) so the satellite will be overhead and see it?
