Hello all.
I got the interest bug of working the radio satellites. But with all this new satellites going up, im a little overwhelmed about information on what each one does or frequencies ect. Basically is there a satellite for dummy site that lists what each birds information is??.. currently I've done a hombrew tape measure antenna and HT's, and just haven't been successful on a qso or heck even hearing so50 yet.
Thank you from a new to satellite,

fyi, SO-50 is only workable during daylight passes, its battery is dead and only works on solar power. hope this helps, I know it threw me for a few nights

This might be a good place to start:

As well, "The ARRL Satellite Handbook" is a good reference.
