Sounds good. good luckEveryone loves to use and try different things.That's the great thing about amateur radio.mikeOn Mon, Nov 1, 2021 at 10:28 AM Dr. Michael Carper, WA9PIE <mike@hrdsoftwarellc.com> wrote:It seems about a wash to me.

The sat replaces that. It also controls any rotator supported by PST rotator.Mikekc2syfOn Mon, Nov 1, 2021 at 1:37 AM Dr. Michael Carper, WA9PIE <mike@hrdsoftwarellc.com> wrote:Sorry, I should have read the page before replying. But I'll probably get one of these so I can do a side-by-side comparison.That said... for $189... it's still more expensive than the sum total of HRD + something like the FoxDelta ST2 USB (which is fantastic, in my opinion).Mike, WA9PIEOn Mon, Nov 1, 2021 at 3:32 PM Dr. Michael Carper, WA9PIE <mike@hrdsoftwarellc.com> wrote:Thanks. I'll do that.Does it control the radio and rotor(which is why my main focus is right now)? Or is it just showing tracks (which HRD does quite well)?Mike, WA9PIEOn Mon, Nov 1, 2021 at 3:21 PM michael sartoretti <kc2syf@gmail.com> wrote:Take a look at the S.A.T. tracker. The Satellite operators love it. No software to install for things to go wrong.

I searched the archive for "HRD" (Ham Radio Deluxe) related posts and I've seen a few.I don't want to turn this into a commercial for HRD. That's not my intention. I'm happy to take a topic offline (outside the email group).Here's my question...For those who use Ham Radio Deluxe, what problems are you having (recently) with satellite operations using the software?[FWIW - a lot of what I've gotten recently when I've asked seems to be 2nd-hand stories or memories of problems that occurred in the distant past. A few things have been changed recently that I hope clears some past problems.]I'm looking for some first-hand recent feedback about using Ham Radio Deluxe for satellites so I can scope out the improvements that need to be made.Additionally, I'm looking for someone who can help verify the Doppler calculations that control the frequency changes in the radio. In-particular, if you have experience in C++, I'm happy to let you view the code.What I really want to do is to make Ham Radio Deluxe the best possible satellite app.I've acquired my own satellite gear and I expect to be "eating my own dog food." So I want this to be great.Email me direct or comment here.
