Hey Ted.
I do my tracking & freq control with Orbitron:
http://www.stoff.pl/orbitron/files/orbitron.exe
... and just to see the AOS times & peak elevations, I have several
bookmarks for various sats on the "Heavens Above" site such as:
http://www.heavens-above.com/PassSummary.aspx?satid=25544&lat=37.8152&lng=-7
7.6765&loc=23192&alt=101&tz=EST
(be sure to check the "All" button to show every pass, not just the ones
that would be visible to the eye... and of course set the location for your
house)
-Scott, K4KDR
