[amsat-bb] Re: SatPC32 upgrade
Hello All, Thanks for the updates Erich! SatPC32 is a great program and I'm very happy with it. I'm having a bit of a problem with the new version, I can't run it from my usual user account. I installed it with the Administrator logon as the installation told me I needed to do that. I'm running Vista 64 bit SP2. When I start the program from any account that is not Adminstrator, I get an error Exception EInOutError in Modul SatPC32.exe bei 011B446. Datei nich gefunden. I tried installing it from several accounts, and even uninstalling 12.8 and installing 12.8a. No luck. If it makes any difference, I do not install it to the C:\ drive. Could anyone help me out here, please? Thanks!

Great Stuff... Downloaded, backed up data, installed, rebooted and restored data in less than 25 minutes. A great bunch of additions worthy of a 12.9 versioning.

Thank you, Erich! I've tried almost all of the tracking programs available, and SatPC32 is my favorite! 73, Jim KQ6EA --- On Tue, 11/10/09, Erich Eichmann erich.eichm...@t-online.de wrote: From: Erich Eichmann erich.eichm...@t-online.de Subject: [amsat-bb] SatPC32 upgrade To: amsat-bb@amsat.org Date: Tuesday, November 10, 2009, 10:59 PM Hello, I have uploaded an upgrade of SatPC32 (V. 12.8a) on my website http://www.dk1tb.de The changes can be seen here: http://www.dk1tb.de/Changes128a.txt I hope it works. 73s, Erich, DK1TB ___ Sent via amsat...@amsat.org.

[amsat-bb] Re: SatPC32 upgrade
Erich, after playing with this for a half hour, I think you will eventually have to increase the 4 configurations to maybe 6 or 8. This is very neat to have a laptop switching between configurations where you might run 1 radio on #1 and 2 radios on #2 at the click of a mouse, and, have other configurations for a different QTH (club station, Field Day, EMCOMM etc) where you use different rotator and radio combinations. I unzipped the DATABACKUP.EXE into Program Files/SATPC32 with all the other executables and added it in the Programs menu (edit Programs.SQF) so that personalized configurations can be backed up from within SATPC32 whenever I make a change, test it and confirm it works. Program additions need to be done in each of your 4 configurations if it is an application you routinely launch while running SATPC32, such as a logging program, unless you launch it from your initial configuration before switching or start it outside of SATPC32. When your shut down and restart SATPC32, you restart into the last used configuration. i.e. shut down in Config 3 and you will start in Config 3 next time. So watch the title line for which config you are in at start up if you are a frequent user of Config Switching. A very nice set of enhancements. -Original Message- From: amsat-bb-boun...@amsat.org [mailto:amsat-bb-boun...@amsat.org] On Behalf Of Erich Eichmann Sent: November 11, 2009 2:54 AM To: amsat-bb@amsat.org Subject: [amsat-bb] SatPC32 upgrade Hello, I have uploaded an upgrade of SatPC32 (V. 12.8a) on my website www.dk1tb.de The changes can be seen here: www.dk1tb.de/Changes128a.txt (if these links fail to work from this email enter them into the address line of your browser).

[amsat-bb] Re: SatPC32 upgrade
Until we get the official reply from Erich, here is what I did to save time doing exactly what you are trying to do primarily because of the time it takes to set up the satellites and groups. If you have a file compare utility such as Beyond Compare you can see which files are in CFGII located in \Documents and Settings\...\UserName\Application Data\SatPC32\CfgII and also in the folder below it. In my case 65 files. Copy them from the SATPC32 folder to ..\CfgII and you will have 2 identical configurations, almost! Copying from CFGII to CFGIII and CFGIV are easier as you just copy the whole folder and overwrite the files. When you start SatPC32 in the new config for the first time you many be missing sats in the bottom right corner. Go into the Satellites menu and do a SHOW OFF and then SHOW ON and they will reappear. This is also the clue to having more than 4 configurations. -Original Message- From: amsat-bb-boun...@amsat.org [mailto:amsat-bb-boun...@amsat.org] On Behalf Of Jeff KB2M Sent: November 11, 2009 3:27 PM To: amsat-bb@amsat.org Subject: [amsat-bb] Re: SatPC32 upgrade Nice update Erich, thank you.

[amsat-bb] Re: SatPC32 upgrade
Thanks so much Erich! I tried it, but unfortunately, I'm having the same problem as the last version where it eats 99% of system resources and I have to shut it down because it is unusable. This wasn't happening to me a while back, so I'm inclined to think it's just me, but has anyone else experienced this? Between this and the bug in HRD with the 817, I have no reliable way to use software to Doppler tune the radio and work the sats :( Tim KI6VBY -Original Message- From: Erich Eichmann [mailto:erich.eichm...@t-online.de] Sent: Tuesday, November 10, 2009 10:59 PM To: amsat-bb@amsat.org Subject: [amsat-bb] SatPC32 upgrade Hello, I have uploaded an upgrade of SatPC32 (V. 12.8a) on my website http://www.dk1tb.de The changes can be seen here: http://www.dk1tb.de/Changes128a.txt I hope it works. 73s, Erich, DK1TB ___ Sent via amsat...@amsat.org.
