Whether you're on a DXpedition, a park activation, or just home in the shack, sometimes it can be hard to drum up a scheduled contact on the birds.
Great SAT activation site

This Windows Satellite Tracking App is a great software to track all known satellites including control of your Transceiver such as IC-9700 and AZ/EL Rotator such as the YAESU G-5500DC.
