See http://instanttrack.com for download links,\ndocumentation, and related files.\n\nThe latest version remains 1.55, released as an open beta on May 12, 2002.\nInstantTrack is still a plain old-style 16-bit DOS program. It ran under\nWindows up to Windows XP or so, but won't run directly on recent versions of\nWindows. It can still be run on nearly any computer by using DOSBOX.\n\n>From its initial release in November 1989, InstantTrack was sold by AMSAT-NA\nand other AMSAT organizations around the world as a fundraiser. All proceeds\nfrom InstantTrack went to support the amateur satellite program. This income\nstream has dwindled to a tiny trickle, and all the AMSAT organizations (as\nfar as I know) stopped offering InstantTrack years ago. It was still\navailable online through one of the old-school shareware fulfillment sites,\nuntil that site went offline recently. Rather than rehost InstantTrack for\nsale on another platform, Franklin and I have agreed to release it for free\ndownload and distribution.\n\n73 -Paul KB5MU\n_______________________________________________\nSent via [email protected].
