[amsat-bb] Re: XW-! keps
It would be nice if someone could convince the powers-that-be at Celestrak to add newly-launched amateur satellites to the amateur.txt file sooner... My experience is that they do it immediately when asked. Its just that someone has to ask. If no one asks, then they don't move it there. Bob, WB4APR ___ Sent via amsat...@amsat.org.

It is only necessary to restart SatPC32 after editing any of the auxiliary files not the whole computer.

One possible source of confusion is due to the fact that amateur.txt is not the only possible source of keplerian elements. If you call up the window that appears with the 'Satelites' menu, on the far left you will see a list of files in the SatPC32/Kepler directory. Clicking on any one of these will generate a list of satellites whose orbits are defined in that file, and from there you can select a subgroup to be displayed in the main program. As a result, if you edit the 'amateur.txt' file, be sure that this is the file you have selected under the 'Satellites' window as well. Also note that when you update the keps from the web, you'll clobber the file that you edited by hand. 73, Bruce -- http://ve9qrp.blogspot.com This info was sent to me yesterday and is right on as of today's passes.
