Mark, believe it or not, I tried it on a powered hub and it doesn't work,
but it works just fine directly in the USB 3.0 port.

Like Phil says, it is probably related to the bandwidth available through
the chain of hubs you are using. (There are usually hubs WITHIN the
computer as well as external). Interesting, though. I do use an external
powered hub which works fine (but using a Windows PC).
Anyway, I'm glad you got it going.

Subject: [amsat-bb] PREDICT-2.2.7 Released for Linux, Unix, Android,
and Raspberry Pi Platforms
Message-ID: <1615596931.433765.1602511847489@????.?????.???>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Today I am pleased to announce the release of PREDICT version 2.2.7, an Open
Source satellite tracking / orbital prediction application for Linux and
Unix computing environments, including PCs, laptops, and Raspberry PIs.
New in this release is a version of PREDICT that operates on Android
platforms under a Termux environment. Now you can carry your smartphone in
your shirt pocket while voice announcements made by PREDICT's "vocalizer"
tell you where to locate the ISS, Hubble, or other visible satellites in the
night sky! There's even an alarm to alert the observer when the spacecraft
enters into eclipse or into sunlight.
Android screenshots are available here:
https://www.qsl.net/kd2bd/SingleTrack-Android.jpg
https://www.qsl.net/kd2bd/MultiTracking-Android.jpg
The Linux/Unix version of PREDICT-2.2.7 is available here:
https://www.qsl.net/kd2bd/predict-2.2.7.tar.gz
And the Android/Termux release is available here:
https://www.qsl.net/kd2bd/predict-2.2.7-termux.tar.gz
Both versions are source code releases. An included "configure" script will
configure and compile PREDICT and its associated utilities for your specific
platform while you wait.
Termux is an Android terminal emulator and Linux environment application
that is available at no cost through Google Play. Further details are
available at:
https://termux.com/
Further details on PREDICT are available at:
https://www.qsl.net/kd2bd/predict.html
Stay safe, stay well, and Happy Tracking!

I may have figured this out. Since I noticed pushing in the connector
on the elevation rotator caused the readings to correct, I took the
connector apart. One of the wires came unsoldered so I resoldered it
and now the elevation reading is perfect and barely, if at all, moves
when I tap the box. The azimuth reading does bounce up/right a little
when I tap the box but it always comes back to the actual reading. I
tried resoldering/heating up the pins on the connector used for the
azimuth rotator but it didn't make any difference.
I still plan on removing the connectors completely, removing the
disconnect and reinstalling them, so perhaps if there still is some
flaky connection in the azimuth cable I will fix it in the process of
doing that.
I also took Burns' advice bent the terminals that connect at the
control box, too.
BTW, it took me a while to figure out how to open these connectors
since I never installed them myself. They don't pull apart, they
unscrew.
As of now SatPC32 is tracking sats and the rotators are moving as expected.
Thanks for all the help everyone!

Just to confirm, the Ramona Lutheran School contact downlink will be
on 145.800 MHz?
I'm asking primarily because last week's school contact was on 437.525
MHz. Was that just because the ground station was in Europe?

> Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) is a cooperative
venture of international amateur radio societies and the space agencies that
support the International Space Station (ISS). In the United States,
sponsors are the Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation (AMSAT), the American
Radio Relay League (ARRL), the ISS National Lab and National Aeronautics and
Space Administration (NASA). The primary goal of ARISS is to promote
exploration of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEAM)
topics by organizing scheduled contacts via amateur radio between crew
members aboard the ISS and students in classrooms or public forms. Before
and during these radio contacts, students, educators, parents, and
communities learn about space, space technologies, and amateur radio. For

>>
>>
>> The Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) Program is
seeking formal and informal education institutions and organizations,
individually or working together, to host an Amateur Radio contact with a
crew member on board the ISS. ARISS anticipates that the contact would be
held between July 1, 2021 and December 30,
>>
>> 2021. Crew scheduling and ISS orbits will determine the exact contact
dates. To maximize these radio contact opportunities, ARISS is looking for
organizations that will draw large numbers of participants and integrate the
contact into a well-developed education plan.
>>
>>
>>
>> The deadline to submit a proposal is November 24th, 2020. Proposal
information and more details such as expectations, proposal guidelines and
the proposal form can be found at www.ariss.org. An ARISS Introductory
Webinar session will be held on October 8, 2020 at 8PM ET. The Eventbrite

>>
>> The Opportunity
>>
>>
>>
>> Crew members aboard the International Space Station will participate in
scheduled Amateur Radio contacts. These radio contacts are approximately 10
minutes in length and allow students to interact with the astronauts through
a question-and-answer session.
>>
>>
>>
>> An ARISS contact is a voice-only communication opportunity via Amateur
Radio between astronauts and cosmonauts aboard the space station and
classrooms and communities. ARISS contacts afford education audiences the
opportunity to learn firsthand from astronauts what it is like to live and
work in space and to learn about space research conducted on the ISS.
Students also will have an opportunity to learn about satellite
communication, wireless technology, and radio science.
>>
>>
>>
>> Because of the nature of human spaceflight and the complexity of
scheduling activities aboard the ISS, organizations must demonstrate
flexibility to accommodate changes in dates and times of the radio contact.
>>
>>
>>
>> Amateur Radio organizations around the world with the support of NASA and
space agencies in Russia, Canada, Japan and Europe present educational
organizations with this opportunity. The ham radio organizations? volunteer
efforts provide the equipment and operational support to enable
communication between crew on the ISS and students
>>
>> around the world using Amateur Radio.

>> About ARISS:
>>
>>
>>
>> Amateur Radio on the International Space Station (ARISS) is a cooperative
venture of international amateur radio societies and the space agencies that
support the International Space Station (ISS). In the United States,
sponsors are the Radio Amateur Satellite Corporation (AMSAT), the American
Radio Relay League (ARRL), the ISS National Lab and National Aeronautics and
Space Administration (NASA). The primary goal of ARISS is to promote
exploration of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEAM)
topics by organizing scheduled contacts via amateur radio between crew
members aboard the ISS and students in classrooms or public forms. Before
and during these radio contacts, students, educators, parents, and
communities learn about space, space technologies, and amateur radio. For
more information, see www.ariss.org.

Hi all,?As Dave W8AAS (one of the ARISS mentors) has pointed out, last
week's contact was on 70cm because the SSTV event was happening at the same
time on 145.8. There were 2 radios in operation at the same time.? For
future reference, I will point out in the announcements if the downlink
frequency is going to be something other than the normal 145.8.?Thanks for
your interest in ARISS.?73,Charlie AJ9NOne of the ARISS mentors?In a message
