Bob,
A bunch of us on the list are amateur astronomers and equipped with varying
levels of gear not technically known or specifically geared towards tracking
spacecraft but some have been discovering such capabilities have been in
their hip pocket all along and very doable with amateur gear. Of which, some
have even received honorable mention in such rags as Sky/Tel and Astronomy
mags. For that sort of thing though, you may already be in closer cahoots
with what you need than anything any of us have here at our homes.
