You most certainly saw a couple of satellites. There are a large number of satellites floating around, most of which are no longer operating or are debris from deployments (e.g. covering panels).
There also was a very high altitude Anti-Satellite Test conducted where a missile was launched at a defunct weather satellite. It turned one large piece of space debris into many many smaller pieces and these are what I often see crossing my eyepiece FOV, problem is the altitude means that stuff is up there for a very long time. Before people get excited it was not the USA, they typically do their tests lower where stuff only stays in orbit for a few months before re-entry.
