    I am interested in finding out what satellite tracking/prediction programs
are available. Several other people have expressed similar interest on this
list, so I would like to take a survey. Please send me information on programs
that find the positions of satellites, that you have or know of. I would like to
know:

The general capabilities of the program. Does it find position? lighting on the
satellite/observer? ground station acquisition and loss? other? What units/form
is the output in?

The information that the program needs to have input to it.

The language/operating system/machine that the program runs on.

The availability/cost of the program.

Other comments, good or bad experiences

     I will compile the results and report back to the list. Thanks in advance.
