Hi Tony, I think I have a possible solution. I am able to reproduce your situation by doing the opposite of my suggestion below. See if this fixes it. If not, maybe someone else can pin it down for you. Go to 'Satellites' in the menu bar and check the list of satellites in the 'selected [stand

Ted, Are you using SATPC32ISS? The rig is not capable of operating full duplex on the same band, so if you want to work the ISS on those frequencies, you need to use the special version. The SATPC32ISS does tune both the uplink and downlink, but not as full duplex. More like a standard repeater

I'll take a shot at this: You can, by SatPC32 settings, limit the movement to 90 deg elevation. That will prevent what many of us call "180 flip mode" or some variant. Now to limit to 85 deg?? I bet if you use a setting of either time interval (increase it...) or Position change (increase it) yo
