Re: [amsat-bb] Doppler.sqf Editor for SatPC32 - update
Tom Thank you. I downloaded it on my XP, thinking I'm good. Nope, had 10 problems. I don't think they were causing me any troubles as they all were after the last 0 I had forgotten a coma before description on some and no space after last comma on others before description. This will come in handy. Thank You 73 John KC0BMF On Wed, May 28, 2014 at 4:22 PM, Thomas Doyle tomdoyle1...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, Thanks to Alan WA4SCA for doing exhaustive testing and letting me know the program had a very subtle and almost imperceptible problem on Windows 7 (it did not work at all). I believe the problem has been fixed - sorry about that. I also tested it on the only working XP computer I have - A MacBook Pro running XP on a Virtual Machine under MacParallels 9. It worked there so I am guessing it may work on an real XP computer with .Net 4.0 installed. http://www.tomdoyle.org/dopplerSqfEditor tnx 73 W9KE Tom Doyle ___ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org.

Re: [amsat-bb] Doppler.Sqf Editor for SatPC32
Hi Bjorn, When you enter a new line it appears at the bottom of the list. When the 'Save' button is clicked the list is sorted by satellite name, saved to disk and then reloaded into the program. At that point the list you see in the grid should be sorted by sat name as well as the file. I did experiment with having it sort the list right after entering the new line but found it a little confusing as the new line appeared to disappear. I also found that often I was entering more than one new entry for a satellite at the same time. It seemed a little easier if the new entries stayed together at the bottom of the list rather than disappearing one at a time. I am fairly sure this is how it works. If this is not the case or I did not answer your question let me know. 73 W9KE Tom Doyle On Thu, May 29, 2014 at 8:50 AM, Björn Pasteuning bjornpd...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Thomas.

Re: [amsat-bb] Doppler.Sqf Editor for SatPC32
Bjorn, Thanks for the info. I uploaded version 0.93 that leaves out the spaces. Let me know how it works for you. 73 W9KE Tom Doyle On Thu, May 29, 2014 at 9:34 AM, Björn Pasteuning bjornpd...@gmail.com wrote: Hi Thomas I have found the following issue. Your tool saves the lines like this: SO-50, 436795, 145850, FM, FM, NOR, 0, 0, note the empty spaces before the data. If I select this sat, the modes on my TRX are not updated, but when i change the line to this: SO-50,436795,145850,FM,FM,NOR,0,0, It works perfectly..

Re: [amsat-bb] Doppler.Sqf Editor for SatPC32
Hi Tom, Compliments a very nice development - Would it be possible to also open TLE object file(s) and add entries to doppler.sqf based on the object files? 73 Jan PE0SAT On 28-05-2014 16:44, Thomas Doyle wrote: Hi, I wrote this little program to try and help out with the great Doppler.sqf files posted on the AMSAT-UK web site. http://amsat-uk.org/satellites/doppler-sqf-2/ In the remote possibility that it could be of interest or use to someone else here is the link. http://www.tomdoyle.org/DopplerSqfEditor 73 W9KE Tom Doyle ___ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org.

Re: [amsat-bb] Doppler.Sqf Editor for SatPC32
Jan, I wish it were possible but as far as the Doppler.sqf file is concerned the only useful piece of information in the tle files is the satellite name. The rest is just identification numbers and a mathematical description of the orbit. It could be a school bus or a cubesat, all you can tell from the Tle data is where it is and where it is going. What is needed is a machine readable list of satellite names and the frequency/mode data. I was actually working on it using the almost perfect satellite information page on the old AMSAT-NA website. Unfortunately the information was scattered over a large number of nice looking pages on the new site. tnx 73, W9KE Tom Doyle On Wed, May 28, 2014 at 10:47 AM, PE0SAT | Amateur Radio pe0...@vgnet.nlwrote: Hi Tom, Compliments a very nice development - Would it be possible to also open TLE object file(s) and add entries to doppler.sqf based on the object files? 73 Jan PE0SAT On 28-05-2014 16:44, Thomas Doyle wrote: Hi, I wrote this little program to try and help out with the great Doppler.sqf files posted on the AMSAT-UK web site. http://amsat-uk.org/satellites/doppler-sqf-2/ In the remote possibility that it could be of interest or use to someone else here is the link. http://www.tomdoyle.org/DopplerSqfEditor 73 W9KE Tom Doyle ___ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org.

Re: [amsat-bb] Doppler.Sqf Editor for SatPC32
Take a look at http://www.ne.jp/asahi/hamradio/je9pel/satslist.htm or http://www.dk3wn.info/satellites.shtml as alternatives (both linked from http://www.amsat.org/?page_id=179). The old AMSAT page you mentioned was a complete PITA to maintain, especially at 10-20 satellites a launch, and decaying orbits and dying cubes and such. If you or anyone else want to build a table or spreadsheet that we can host on the new page, I'll post it, but I will need long-term help to maintain it. I took over the maintenance of the old sat status pages before my current job, and more importantly, my two harmonics. 73, Drew KO4MA -Original Message- From: Thomas Doyle tomdoyle1...@gmail.com Sent: May 28, 2014 5:04 PM To: Cc: AMSAT amsat-bb@amsat.org Subject: Re: [amsat-bb] Doppler.Sqf Editor for SatPC32 Jan, I wish it were possible but as far as the Doppler.sqf file is concerned the only useful piece of information in the tle files is the satellite name.
