subject: Sat tracking info?

Greetings, All;
 
I have a bit of a problem that I hope someone here can solve.
 
I recently acquired STSPLUS, which tracks the "birds," but I need
launch data for the OSCARs and Sputnik Jr.  I can track any one individual
bird, but I get a number of others which I have no interest in.  I believe
I need a block of data which looks similar to the following:
 
19883,"TDRE ",  0.21696, -42.32385,10010
21639,"TDRW ",  0.00762,-170.75246,10010
23613,"TDR6 ", -0.07086,-159.36715,10002
22314,"TDR5 ",  0.11423, -47.95517,10002
19548,"TDR2 ", -2.49849,  74.40126,10002
13969,"TDR1 ",  6.78789, -61.87166,10002
21701,"UARS ", 49.11843,  51.88643,10113
22920,"ARRAY",-28.40552, -76.28669,10114
20638,"ROSAT",-50.51817, 141.19452,10113
22076,"TOPEX",-65.29326,-110.91186,10113
21225,"GRO  ", 21.22343, -91.34374,10113
21987,"EUVE ",-10.04809, -21.39491,10113
20580,"HST  ", 23.20400, -28.64659,10114
23560,"ERS-2",-12.68772, -10.48502,10114
16609,"MIR  ",  7.93039, 118.65552,10112
 
With the exception of the Mir and Hubble, I have no interest in the ones
listed above.  What I need, however, is the listings for the following,
which I believe are the OSCARS:
 
AO-10, UO-11, RS-10/11, FO-20, AO-21, RS-12/13, RS-15, FO-29, UO-14,
AO-16, DO-17, WO-18, LO-19, UO-22, KO-23, AO-27, IO-26, KO-25, RS-17
 
And does anyone know what the following are?
 
MET-3/2 OKEAN-1/7, SICH-1, POSAT, GRO, UARS,
 
 
These are, I believe, NOAA weather sats:
 
NOAA-9, NOAA-10, NOAA-11, NOAA-12, NOAA-14
 
 
And are these meterological sats as well, or are they OSCARS too?
 
MET-2/17, MET-2/18, MET-2/19, MET-2/20, MET-2/21, MET-3/3, MET-3/4,
MET-3/5
 
Actually, I don't know if all I need to be able to track all these at
once would be the launch time, since the rest of the information seems
to be included in the Keplarian data which I get here twice a week, or if
more info is needed to get a display of these birds instead of the
defaults that come in STSPLUS?
 
Can someone please help?
 
Many thanks in advance.

... OSCAR birds don't have feathers!
