Most these days can be made to do the same thing with\nsome code.\n\nYou bring about a good point. A contraption (az el rotator) can be\ndriven with a smart phone. Not sure the radios could be driven that\nway. Not much of a hindrance, though.\n\nThe key is that the modules are off the shelf, cheep, supported and\ncan be for the most part purchased at Radio Shack/downloaded from the\ninternet. (shameless plug: they have microcontrollers in stock along\nwith a pretty good line electronics goodies.)\n\nNorm n3ykf\n\n\n\n\nOn Sat, Feb 23, 2013 at 9:35 PM, Gus <[email protected]> wrote:\n> I think AMSAT-UK even has software available.\n>\n> And with the addition of a bit of EEPROM, you could even pre-load the\n> controller with ephemeris data for several satellites for several days in\n> advance.
