I think it's because more people use SatPC32 then any other satellite tracking program. The majority of SatPC32 users don't have a problem. Also the experienced users of SatPC32 don't mind helping out the new users of the s/w simply because it is the best satellite tracking package in use today, hands down...

It amazes me, the number of people who, every time a new satellite/radio/rotor/interface etc appears, have to ask how to configure SatPC32 to work with the new equipment. I've never seen this with other software, other than the HRD suite.
I've not used SatPC preferring Orbitron or InstantTrack. Does SatPC not have a manual or instructions? Are we breeding operators who cannot read or understand the language?
What's going on?
