This subject isn't new and therefor SatPC32 already has the 
AmsatNames.txt config file.

Look at the AmsatNames.txt in your SatPC32 config directory.

; This file contains the AMSAT names of actual amateur radio
; satellites. The auxiliary file SatRename evaluates this file
; to replace the satellite names used in Space-Track TLE
; data files with their AMSAT names.
;
; Column #1 contains the 5-digit "Identification Number" used in
; TLE files (data line #1, columns 3 - 7).
;
; Column #2 contains the satellite's 8-digit "International
; Designator" (data line #1, columns 10 - 17),
;
; Column #3 contains the satellite's AMSAT name.
;
; When a new satellie is available, it can be added to this list.
; Note, that the "Identification Number" and the "International
; Designator" must contain a fix number of digits.
