Damon,
I personally don't think you will find a single conduit with greater information on the satellite community than right here on the AMSAT-BB. While not all emails interest me I have the free will and ability to utilize my delete key.
To insinuate the AMSAT-BB isn't for people who WORK satellites is false. This year alone, there have been email threads discussing new transponder satellites, special event operations (W1AW,) hamfest operations, and talk of future launches. There is a world wide audience on this BB and quite possibly not all of them are in our mutual footprints. Not everyone chases grids and awards.
A recent grid expedition was posted on the AMSAT-BB. As a result many individuals have been chasing that mobile operator. I've not seen that grid expedition posted on any other email lists.

If you WORK the satellites and would like information about rare grids being activated, hard to find states and new countries on the birds, then you might want to join a new satellite BB Here you will find that kind of information
