[amsat-bb] Re: ISS HRD
Kevin, The AMSAT Keps distribution service dates back to the dark ages when the Internet as we know it did not exist. Many got their info from the packet system since e-mail was fairly hard, and expensive, to come by. Also, all satellites were in a high enough orbits, and did not maneuver, that their Keps changed very slowly. Usually the Keps were good for a month or more, with the difference being only a few seconds when you updated. AMSAT.ALL is updated about once a week, no matter how many times you download it. For most satellites, that was, and is, more than enough. They do have the advantage that they use only the common satellite names, and at times in the past have quietly fixed some cases where Space Track has incorrectly paired object numbers with common names. They also include Keps for satellites which for some reason do not appear from Space Track, but only on their own web sites. For the ISS, and the Shuttle for one more flight, your best source for data is CelesTrak which does Keps, and only Keps, or Space Track. All the major tracking programs will do this for you, though you will need to insure they are using the correct files. It is a common problem, often discussed here, and relatively simply addressed. For one old program I use for special purposes, I just cut and paste the new data if necessary. The Keps posted there are not really an integral part of the AMSAT web site, but just a place where the data is provided for convenience. I hope a bit of historical perspective, and understanding what is going on behind the scenes, helps. 73s, Alan WA4SCA -Original Message- From: amsat-bb-boun...@amsat.org [mailto:amsat-bb-boun...@amsat.org] On Behalf Of Kevin Deane Sent: Thursday, June 16, 2011 1:06 AM To: amsat-bb@amsat.org Subject: [amsat-bb] ISS HRD So I have confirmed HRD is like 23 minutes ahead of Amsat, I got a good Digi Qso on the last pass...

Hi All, This is a good thing to consider whether it's for preamps or anything else such as a tower-mounted remote co-ax switch. I had one meter, think it was an MFJ-815, that did not have a DC path through it. My co-ax switch didn't work anymore ! Had to peddle the meter and put in another, then everything was OK again. 73, John, K6YK On Thu, 16 Jun 2011 05:06:01 +0100 "Nigel A.

[amsat-bb] Re: ISS
No problem Kevin. I dont rely on HRD sat tracker much but after seeing your message on the board I did some investigating to see what the problem actually was. My HRD sat tracking was lagging like yours for the ISS, I closed it and tried running as administrator and uploading keps and nothing changed. By chance I changed my keps on satpc32 from celestrak to amsat and the ISS was predicted to be the same position as HRD. That is how I came across the remedy for HRD, but when I eliminated the amsat site for keps downloads, all it showed was the moon no matter what sat I selected, so I shut down sat tracker and restarted and everything worked like it should. And before Alan asks again, my callsign is AB9RU, and thanks again Alan for your satpc32 doppler file, and Kevin good luck hunting packet QSO's on the ISS digi ___ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org.

[amsat-bb] Keps
Hello everyone, Is there a program or script that could automate the creation of a custom keplerian element list that includes satelites that i´m only interested in, from data from either either spacetrack or celestrack? My idea is to create something similar to the list that AMSAT publishes but more specific to my needs, meaning that there are some sats in there that I don´t care about. I tried the TLEretriever but no cigar there, at least for the purpose in sight. 73´s Paulo CT2IWW ___ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org. Opinions expressed are those of the author. Not an AMSAT-NA member?

You should be able to take the AMSAT keps and delete the lines for the birds you do not want, save the result with the same name. Then reload that into your program and go.

[amsat-bb] Re: Keps
I used to use a program called NASAWASH. You set up a "mysats" file that specifies which birds you are interested in, and then you can set up a batch file that will automatically parse whatever input file you specify (like nasa.all) and output the filtered results to the filename and location that you specified. Looks like it's still available in the AMSAT software archive at http://www.amsat.org/amsat/ftp/software/PC/util/nasawash.zip George, KA3HSW - Original Message - From: "CT2IWW Paulo Teixeira" To: Sent: Thursday, June 16, 2011 3:14 PM Subject: [amsat-bb] Keps Hello everyone, Is there a program or script that could automate the creation of a custom keplerian element list that includes satelites that i´m only interested in, from data from either either spacetrack or celestrack?
