Les, The LituanicaSAT-1 team applied for an OSCAR number a couple of weeks ago. They are still waiting for it's assignment. Hopefully it will be before it reenters! It's tradition that a satellite has one name before launch and a different one upon launch and activation.
You should use the CelesTrak keps as they are updated more frequently. The atmospheric drag at the satellite's altitude requires frequent updates. The LituanicaSAT-1 keps are located in the cubesat.txt file. not amateur.txt. The name is LITUANICASAT-1. A detailed tutorial of how to add new satellites to SatPC32 is located here: http://www.dk1tb.de/FAQ_e.htm#NewSat 73, Paul, N8HM On Sat, Jun 7, 2014 at 3:22 PM, Les Rayburn <l...@highnoonfilm.com> wrote: > I'd really like to work a contact or two through the new bird while it's > still up.
