Gday Les and Joe,
I wonder if you have installed the Java 1.8 runtime environment which is
required? You can download it from java.com.
The file which keeps all your saved preferences can be found in your
"Home" directory here: C:\Users\winte\KLATrack where "winte" is the first
part of my surname. Of course, you will have a different identifier.

International Space Station Astronauts are Calling CQ Students
ARISS-US program?s education proposal window is open April 1 - May 15, 2019
?
March 24, 2019:? The Amateur Radio on the International Space Station
(ARISS) program is seeking proposals beginning April 1, 2019, from US
schools, museums, science centers and community youth organizations (working
individually or together) to host radio contacts with an orbiting crew
member aboard the International Space Station (ISS) between January 1, 2020
and June 30, 2020.
?
Each year, ARISS provides tens of thousands of students with learning
opportunities about space technologies, communications, and much more
through the exploration of Amateur Radio and space. The ARISS program
connects students to astronauts on the ISS through a partnership between
NASA, the Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation, the American Radio Relay
League, other Amateur Radio global organizations and the worldwide space
agencies. The program?s goal is to inspire students to pursue interests and
careers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) and in
Amateur Radio.
?
Educators report regularly that student participation in the ARISS program
stimulates interest in STEM subjects and STEM careers. One educator wrote,
?Many of the middle school students who took part in and attended the ARISS
contact have selected science courses in high school as a result of that
contact.?? Educators are setting up ham radio clubs in schools and learning
centers because of students? interest.
?
ARISS is looking for organizations that will draw large numbers of
participants and integrate the contact into a well-developed, exciting
education plan. Students can learn about satellite communications, wireless
technology, science research conducted on the ISS, radio science, and other
STEM subjects. Students learn to use Amateur Radio to talk directly to an
astronaut and ask their STEM-related questions. ARISS will help educational
organizations locate Amateur Radio groups who can assist with equipment for
a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for students.
?
The proposal window opens April 1, 2019 and the proposal deadline is May 15,
2019. For proposal guidelines and forms and more details, go to:
http://ariss-proposal-webinar-spring-2019.eventbrite.com
Proposal webinars for guidance and getting questions answered will be
offered April 11, 2019 at 7 pm Eastern Time and April 16, 2019 at 9 pm
Eastern Time. Advance registration is necessary. To sign up, go to

Thanks (as always) for the great advice received on this forum.
The problem with KalTrack turned out to be Windows 10 resizing the
?settings? window so that ?SAVE? and ?CANCEL? buttons were not visible.
Simply grabbing the lower right corner of the window and stretching it did
the trick.
Everything working great now.
I had a couple of points of confusion along the way:
Whenever the author recommends downloading Java Runtime Environment, that
really just means ?Java.? Download and install the latest version of
Java?and uninstall any older versions.
As many pointed out, ?Run as Administrator? works best.
This is a great piece of software to help quickly visualize what passes are
coming up. Just what I needed.

Run As Administrator is NOT required for KLA tracker and in general should
be avoided as it is a security risk.
>From the KLA website:
The installation is simple. You need Java 1.8 or later installed. On
Windows put the program in any directory you like and just double click the
exe to run it. On Linux or Mac double click the KlaTrack bash script to
launch it. Ask me if you need help.
Run As Admin has been discussed at length on the WSJT-X and JTAlert
Lists....very bad idea.

I do not use a tripod with my Arrow antenna. But I do want to record the
pass for logging ease. I do not want the outside sounds to be picked up by
my recording device, which is my iPhone. So, I hard wire from the radio and
my Heil, boom headset directly into my iPhone. I did have to put a mini
guitar amp in line, between the radio and the phone It is called an ?Appoge
Jam 96K.? It works perfectly and draws it?s power from the iPhone. A perfect
recording that I can use for logging.

I had very nice experience with Transcend T Sonic 630 (4gb), great quality,
features multiple options of recording & support line-in function too. can
be easily used with audio splitter (one for recording other for headphone).
You may also check MP330 model (8gb).
Since few years I am using my old (spare) trustworthy Redmi 1S smartphone,
gives me decent quality recording. Also we can transfer files with multiple
of connectivity options.
Eager to know about others.

I GOT IT WORKING! YAY!
And I LOVE IT!
BUT.... And there always is a BUT isn't there.
The "Past Hours" Setting,,
Can we make it have like 10 minute increments?
Zero time and the time it is right now is dead on the end of the window,
so it's hard to see whats has very recently happened, Yet when in only 2
hour future mode even just one hour Past setting uses up a LOT of the
window,
Like in 10 Minutes increments would be awesome!
