Subject: ### How do I find a satellite?
How do I find if there are any amateur satallites passing over me
and what freqs/bands do they use, and when will they be above me, and how
long will they be there?
You get the general idea... 8)

Subject: ### How do I find a satellite?
Sorry, I meant when I said satellites, I meant things in space with amateur
equiptment, as well as astronauts if any.
And my post got clipped. Last line was supposed to read "I'm geograpically
located in Singapore".

Subject: AO-27 Questions
Does anyone have any information about AO-27. I have worked this
satellite when it was operating in amateur mode J. What is this
used for in the commercial service? What modulation techniques are
used. I assume that the frequencies are near the 430 and 2 meter
amateur bands. Any information would be appreciated.

We could go on here for weeks, and only scratch the surface, so I'll refer
you to a book, Satellite Experimenters Handbook. Available from good Ham stores
and mail order.
Weather satellites are an entirely different service. Try Weather Satellite Handbook,
same sources.
Have fun!

The program GSTP, available from AMSAT-UK, will do what you want.
