Hi Chris,
You can use PREDICT for this very purpose! You can look days and months ahead to see when a satellite in in eclipse, how much illumination it should receive, etc. It's really slick.

Pick your OS, download, read a bit, and have at it.
Thanks to Bruce WB9ANQ for directing me to this software just a few days ago and to John KD2BD for a great program!
Thanks, Mark. I'm glad you found PREDICT to be a useful piece of software.
As Gould pointed out yesterday, SCRAP provides a very similar eclipse prediction function as it derives some of its coding directly from PREDICT.
