Hello "powers that be". :-)
I've taken the time to learn about the steps it takes to get a satellite
from conception to launch-and-long-term-management.
Once I did and stepped back to "take it all in", I felt compelled to
sincerely tip my hat to those that have made it possible to put "a bird in
the air", in the past as well as to those who are attempting to do so now.
To that end, I have a stronger-than-ever belief that there is a vastly
untapped resource in the guise of "bystanders" and "lurkers"; those who are
not now (nor are likely to ever be) "insiders" or "on a project team"
themselves ... but if allowed to, would gladly seek out a
"friend-of-a-friend-of-a-friend" to fill-in some critical need that is
keeping a modern "bird" from taking flight.
Please "powers that be", reconsider and "open" the books on what you can use
along with a contact person for that item.? You may find what you need
through the "resources-of-the-crowd".
I'm "tapping out" on this concept for now (I'm as tired talking about it as
many are tired of my talking about it, lol) but know that I'm one of those
who would be a willing and eager "resource-in-the-crowd", if someone were to
simply be honest and straightforward about a concrete need (other than
money) and have it align with where I think my 6-degrees-of-separation could
take them.
Very 73,Ev, W2EV
PS: my interest is in a highly-elliptical linear bird, or maybe a
geostationary one serving the Americas, fwiw.? I don't think I'd burn my
relationships on another FM LEO.

I use SATPC32 to control the radios and antennas and HRD to plan for
upcoming passes.

Gpredict runs on both FreeBSD and Linux and, I believe, it's available
in Windows and Mac versions as well.

Try running Nova in Administrator mode.I have had to do that on one of my
laptops to get it to work. IT works very well on W10! Still has the best
graphics. If you need to do Doppler correction on your radios, then SatPC is
the way to go.

I am fiddling with a new page that displays a list of upcoming Satellite
APRS passes:
http://www.aprsat.com/predict
This list combines these satellites:
1) ISS
2) PCSAT
3) PSAT
4) AISAT
5) FALCONSAT-3
6) PSAT2
7) USNAP1
Feel free to take this on a test-drive and let me know your thoughts and
suggestions.
I added the 3rd row highlight today. The default Lon/Lat is your Internet
provider address based on IP lookup. You can override this for more
accurate results by typing into the boxes on the right and applying changes.
