All the ones I was able to find quickly. Most are in comms,
"sattrack" is in astro but is really also used by ham radio ops as well
to track amateur radio satellites. You will note that "predict" and
"gpredict" do the same job as "sattrack" as it is.
http://www.amsat.org also has the source for sattrack and predict.
I believe that is 20 or so ports. I have several ports in progress as well.

acfax
aldo
cwdaemon
echolinux
gpredict
gmfsk
grig
hamlib
linrad
nasawash
predict
qsstv
thebridge
tlf
twpsk
trustedqsl
xastir
xdx
xlog
sattrack
