Interesting....
I tried each of the pre-programmed groups to see if each would sort. The groups are standard, FM Repeaters, Linear 1 and Linear 2.
All would sort, except for FM Repeaters. FM Repeaters would not sort for AOS/LOS.
Sats in the FM group include SO-50, AO-85, AO-91, LILIACAST-2 (not included in my custom list), and IO-86. Could one or more of these Sats be the problem?

Hi Erich. Thanks for the response.
Here is my custom list. I believe these are all Low Earth Sats..
AO-07, AO-73, AO-91, AO-92, CAS-4A, CAS-4B, IO-86, SO-50, XW-2A, XW-2B, XW-2C, XW-2F.
I believe some may not have complete data sets....could that be causing the failure to sort? If so, how do I identify the culprit?

Hi Alan, check whether one of the selected sats is a geostationary one, e.g. QO-100, which does not rise and set but is continously in range. When I add QO-100 to the 'Selected' list, the Countown window does no longer sort the sats by their AOS/LOS times (but in alphabetical order). My friend LX1BB reports the same observation.

Here is the path the SatPC32 installer defaulted to. - :\Program Files (x86)\SatPC32\SatPC32ISS.exe"
Another observation. When I use one of the groups included in the SatPC package, it sorts in the order of AOS. However, when I customize a group by adding new Sats, the customized list no longer sorts??

Works fine here,
the only thing I can think of is that, I hope SatPC32 is NOT installed under any Windows folders like Program Files 32 or Documents etc.

New to Satellites and SatPC32.
Question - On the “CountDown” accessory, there are two buttons for sorting the list. I prefer to select “AOS/LOS Times”. When I select, the list stays in the “Ident/Letters” order.
What am I doing wrong? _______________________________________________ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org.
