I forgot to mention you also have to add the new file group name to the file
group list in SatFiles.SQF, in the same directory...

Why not just make up your own groups like I did....

Edit one of the existing .SAT groups to your liking, then rename and save as
a xxx.SAT. There in the users xxxx AppData Roaming SatPC32 directory...

Easy peasy...

Hi Dave,

Same problem.  I see the group called Weather (mine doesn't have a NOAA
group) in SatPC32, and it has the 3 satellites I'm interested in.  But when
I run WinAOS and select a sat group the list has Weather1 and Weather2,
neither of which is the same as the Weather group in SatPC32!

It's very frustrating, and the documentation is inadequate.

Thanks anyway,

Working from memory since I am not at the shack, but there are files which
hold the groups for each program:

SatFiles.SQF
AosFiles.SQF
WisFiles.SQF
ISSFiles.SQF

On the rare time that I do a new group, I always have to figure this out.
Hopefully remembered correctly.

Making up my own satellite group is exactly what I'm trying to do.
However, the docs don't say I have to work "under the hood" and search my
hard drive and edit configuration files the author has hidden away in order
to accomplish this.

Proper, up to date documentation would solve this problem.

I see SatFiles.SQF in the list of Auxiliary files.  Interestingly, the
group I created earlier is listed there.  Some text in the file refers to a
few other configuration files.  However, the files are not in the Auxiliary
Files list.  It's like the author doesn't want me to edit them, no?

Hi everyone.

I really enjoy the aspects of Amateur Radio that involve connecting our
radios to a computer.  That includes decoding telemetry from the long list
of cubesats in orbit now as well as digital modes like packet.  It's been
great to have the ISS digipeater back in service, plus PSAT has been
working well lately.

I normally use UISS on Windows for my packet operations but thought it
would be fun to try to find the most simple method of doing the same thing
on linux, in particular a Raspberry Pi.  I know there are linux packet
apps, but I was looking for something as lite as possible that was
point-and-click like UISS.

This is important... please note that this is NOT a turnkey, step-by-step
how to.  But rather, I wanted to share my findings so that anyone
comfortable with linux/Pi basics could install a couple of pieces of
software and edit a few text files.

Since I wanted to demo how it actually works, I recorded a screen session
on my Raspberry Pi.  It's not meant to be fancy and has no audio, but the
"narration" is done with text on the screen so that you can pause the video
at any time you wish to read or take notes.  The video is at:

http://www.qsl.net/k/k4kdr//video/2018-09-02--RPi-APRS-demo.mp4

... and all the files AS I USE THEM can be found at:

http://www.qsl.net/k/k4kdr//downloads/pkt/

... please note, if you'd like to duplicate my little experiment, it's
critical that you do the following:

--determine which audio device connects to your radio & setup a proper
.CONF file for Direwolf

--if you're not using VOX for PTT (i.e., Signalink), then determine which
USB or serial devices keys your PTT & put that in the Direwolf .CONF file

--edit each and every .SH script file & replace my call sign with yours,
plus edit the wording to suit yourself

... so, obviously not as easy as UISS on Windows but for portable use, a
Raspberry Pi might be easier to carry than a full-size laptop.

Final note, while I did the video demo on a Pi, this setup works equally
well on any linux computer as long as you review your Direwolf .CONF file
and all the scripts to make sure they are using syntax that is proper for
your system.

For anyone already familiar with the linux or Pi environment, I hope my
learnings might save you some time.  I know this all sounds complicated,
but it's really not... only a few things to configure and you're up and
running!

I used this setup on a PSAT pass the other day and was digipeated several
times.  Here's a screen shot of findu.com from that pass:

http://www.qsl.net/k/k4kdr//images/2018-09-01--PSAT-Pi.png


I hope this might be interesting to someone.  Of course please contact me
if you give it a try and have any questions.

-Scott,  K4KDR

Hi JoAnne and everyone,

Thanks for that.
Yes I had two entries for AO-91. One with last years keps that I had
selected and one with current keps that I hadn't selected.
Putting the correct entry in fixed the problem and Nova now agrees with
Orbitron.

I usually go outside and catch AO-91 with a hand held  + yagi.
When using Nova, I had to wait about an extra 5 minutes for AOS and LOS was
about 5 minutes later than predicted.
I actually like Nova, just a personal preference really.

73,
Terry Osborne ZL2BAC

I've noticed a bit of sneakiness tracking AO-91 with Nova. I find I'm
several minutes off once or twice a year. The main symptom is a weak
downlink from AO-91 since the antenna is aimed at a spot in the sky which is
not on time.

What I've found is somehow Nova has 2 or 3 instances of AO-91 in the table
where you choose the satellites to add to the tracking view. None of the
other satellites have multiple instances. What I need to do is to select
each instance of AO-91 and keep only the one that accurately matches the
other resources you can compare with.

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8; format=flowed

Ken,
the SatPC32 data folder contains also ISSFiles.SQF, WisFiles.SQF and?
AosFiles.SQF (the path to that folder is shown in the foot line of menu
'Satellites').

The programs SatPC32, SatPC32ISS, Wisat32 and WinAOS do not share the?
group files. Each of the programs uses it's own group files (WinAOS -
for example - can be used stand allone).

As Alan wrote already the lists of group files for the 4 programs are
hold in SatFiles.SQF, ISSfiles.SQF, WisFiles.SQF and AosFiles.SQF
The extensions of the group files are
.Sat? for SatPC32
.ISS for SatPC32ISS
.Wis for Wisat32
.Aos for WinAOS.
I have mentioned that in the manual (sect. F I 7) and in the aux. file
SatFiles.SQF itself (all aux. files that can be opened from SatPC32 menu
"?" contains instructions at its end about how to be used).

The group files can be opened and edited from the menus 'Satellites' of
their? corresponding programs (in WinAOS: menu 'Lists'). You can
add/remove satelites and select the source file. With the main programs
SaPC32 and SatPC32ISS you can also add/remove groups. For WinAOS and
Wisat32 that must be done manually by editing AosFiles.SQF or
WisFiles.SQF (using editor Notepad, ALL SatPC32 aux. files are text
files).? Renaming group files must also be done using Notepad.

If you want WinAOS to use the same sats that you have chosen for a group
