Hello all,
Today I spent several hours (computer illiterate)  setting up SatPC32 with
my new IC-9700.  It is working great on several of the sats. I have noticed
that several of the newer sats do not have the freq data in the program and
therefore do not track the sats with doppler shift compensation.  The ones I
am trying to use are:  RS-44, CAS 4A, CAS 4B, IO86, and EO88.  With further
study I noticed that data is lacking for these sats in the doppler.SQF file.
 Rather than reinventing the wheel I was wondering if anyone knows where I
can obtain this data and maybe just copy and paste it into the doppler.SQF
file?  That would sure be a nice solution as my head hurts from installing
drivers and cables and SatPC32 today.
Thanks,
Brad
W5BK

My main station uses a combination of:
- MacDoppler for rig control (controlling my IC-9700)
- GPredict for antenna control.
- GQRX for interfacing with various SDRs.

Ideally I'd be using MacDoppler for both rig *and* antenna control, but my
rotator controller is served up by a RPirunning hamlib's rigctld, which
MacDoppler doesn't support (even though the protocol is absurdly simple).
So, I still use GPredict to do antenna control.

If you don't want to pay for MacDoppler (and it isn't particularly cheap),
GPredict will also do radio control, but it does have some issues
controlling dual-VFO rigs correctly.

I will be honest.

I own both windows and Mac computers and I use them both extensively. I can
honestly say both have their problems. My Mac drives me absolutely crazy
with display issues and today was no exception on when I lost a zoom call
somewhere in their graphics card and I could not bring the focus back to it
but the call went on. I had to reboot the Mac eventually.

So no matter which platform you choose expect some technical issues that you
will have to work to resolve.

I have to say right now That my windows 10 pro platform is by far the most
stable.

I understand. I?ve just had a whole series of issues with the home network
and and a bunch of other things. I too have to admit that the reasonS I
left using macs
became numerous and I?m able to do everything and more especially in ham
radio with the windows computer.

Brad,

 Being able to edit your own doppler.sqf lines is a good skill to have if
you are going to use SatPC32 even if your brain is tired from the initial
setup. AMSAT has a line generator that will create it for you when you
input the basic info. https://www.amsat.org/doppler-sqf-line-generator/

Rick:
I ran Windows for 30+ years in industry because it's prevalent business
platform (where I worked).? I still run Windows but only when I can not
do the required task any other way.

I currently run Mac as preferred platform including MacDoppler (easy and
the support is great).. MacLoggerDX (premier logging application).

Considering the volumes of emails we see on "can't get this or that to
work on {name your application] for Windows," one could easily pay for a
new Mac.

Also, you'll hear/discover Macs are expensive.?? Data:? My 2009
MacBookPro still runs great.? A $4,000 laptop divided across 11 years of
trouble-free use (with no issues) and associating some value to my time
(during which I was not doing Windows updates to my Mac), the Mac wins
the cost/benefit analysis.

very 73,

iDave KJ9I

Get out your checkbook and write a check to AMSAT for $10,000,000.00 and
I would guess that a HEO could well appear :)

Remember that there are many aspects to amateur radio, and satellites in
particular.? Although I for the most part could not care less about
about DXing (although I do have WAS and VUCC via satellite - and would
have gotten WAC if the ARRL had not lost my submission), I understand
that there are people who do.?? I like to talk to people for more an a
few seconds at a time, so the majority of my satellite operating time
was via linear birds.? Absolutely loved AO-10 and AO-40 (sob) with their
high orbits.? I would love to see another HEO to use.

In full disclosure, I have not operated satellite in about 15 years.?
Several reasons for that, but I'm coming back.? After what seems like
almost every new satellite was a LEO digital bird, we have gotten a
number of analog birds in the past couple years.? I've got some work to
do to get the station back up, but I'm spending money to do that.? That
includes re-joining AMSAT-NA after a quite a few year gap.

And no, I can't write the 10 million dollar check either...

If someone joined and/or renewed their AMSAT membership, in person at
Hamvention 2019 (May 2019), why would their membership expire on 3/1/2020?

I ask because both mine and my daughter?s memberships had this occur. We
were both shorted two months worth of membership. I?m curious if any other
members had this occur and if it?s related to the swap over to the new
member portal.

To whom should affected members reach out to in order to have their accounts
credited for the missing months of membership?
