Tuning into low earth orbit satellite SO-50 on 436.795 FM January 9 2014. Using a sub $40 dollar radio and a Nagoya NA-775 (under 10 dollar) antenna. Sat pass was a max of 55 degrees overhead here in Southwestern Ontario @ 18:06 EST. Good to hear a female HAM voice on the bird :)
I use ISS detector App on my Android phone to get notified and track the passes of the HAM satellites.

Some of the stations heard (some mistakes possible here):
W2SKI- Virginia
AC0RA- EN41- Iowa
