Have looked at some of the antennas for satellite receiving. Do you have to point the antenna in the general direction or do you have to be dead center on the satellite to receive a good signal? Thanks for posting the list of frequencies.

A bit of both. The more accurate the aim, the better the signal.

I'm compiling a list of active satellites that I can track & receive some sort of audio, from my location in New Zealand.
I'm using Gpredict for tracking & SDRplay RSP1A.
So far I only have 8 FM & 12 CW, must be loads more than that.
Of those, ISS is the only one I have got a peep from so far.
Most of the ones I get from a search either don't have audio or aren't on the Gpredit database.
