I am just starting out with satellite radio. I am using SatPC32 with an ICOM IC-7000 and an az/el rotator.
I would like to find a current list of active satellites. It seems many of the satellites I track don't have any downlinked signal. AMSAT shows current OSCAR satellites and JA9PEL seems to have a good list. However, it would be very helpful to know which satellites I can definitely hear a signal from (beacon, voice, etc.) so that I can be sure my setup is working.
Thanks. Richard, AE6XO

This was made for Field Day but it should be roughly accurate and a good starting point:
https://www.amsat.org/satellites-likely-to-be-active-on-field-day-2021/
The up to the minute status page isn't ideal for someone new just wanting an overview of what is available.

Hello Richard,
This page shows which ones have been heard recently:

As people already said, this is a page showing which satellites have been recently heard: https://www.amsat.org/status/
Additionally, I send people to this page to see the current communications satellites: https://www.amsat.org/two-way-satellites/ And if you click on "frequency chart" under each main heading on that page you'll find detailed information.
