Agreed. I use SatPC32 with a 910H on the linear sats and it works great. As Elan said, you must do a little tweaking due to variations between different radios and satellite oscillator aging, but once you've saved the correction for a given bird, you'll be spot on after that.

My, my at the assumption. I've been a customer of SatPC32 for more than six years. I've been on sabbatical. :) Trying to get the cobwebs cleaned out.
