Richard, That usually happens when the name of the satellite in the DOPPLER.SQF file does not EXACTLY match the name of the satellite in the source of Doppler information. For instance "AO-51" vice "ECHO (AO-51)." The Keps distributed by AMSAT all use the standard designations, but many of the other sources have other information in the name line. One way to solve this is to look at the AMSATNAMES.TXT file in the Auxiliary Files section of Help, "?." It allows SATPC32 to identify the satellites from their official designations and use the common name.

The CAT window show no CAT data and the 'Data Line' at the bottom shows the last line of doppler.sqf. Any ideas?
