I am having a lot of fun with my receiving setup and thought this might be
of interest.
You can go to the SATNOGS Network site and listen to or download audio and
SDR
waterfall recordings from the various groundstations.
https://network.satnogs.org/

They have a number of ground station projects users can build and interface
to the
SATNOGS observation network. I am starting out with a simple station that
consists of
a Raspberry Pi, SDR Dongle, and stationary antenna. Mine will be a
turnstile to start.
They also have projects for a AZ-EL rotor that uses some 3D printed parts.
Some antennas
as well.

Once you are setup you log onto the site and schedule your observations. It
sends the
info back to the Pi with pass times, frequency,mode doppler ect. The pi
records the pass
and sends the audio and water fall plus any data back to the web site. It
even will display
some data and WX satellite pictures decoded.

Here are some links to the SATNOGS sites. Their are a lot of Wiki pages and
some forums
