Hi all,
How about a compromise? There's an old DOS program that I used many years ago
that printed out a chart, one line per satellite per pass, sorted by time. One
page would hold several days worth, depending on how many satellites you wanted
to track. Not as compact as the chart I think

I sympathize with what you're saying and know you both have AMSAT's best
interests at heart. But unfortunately I don't see this exchange going in a
positive direction.
We all know this is not the first time somebody has come on this mailing list

By stall command, you mean that if the rotator does not move after a period
