Tim, Putting in the Lat/Lon directly in Observer rather than having SATPCcalculate it did the trick!! Now shows EM32 OK. BTW, the WINAOS did it properly by only entering the 6 character Grid,but the "Observer" setup on the main map didn't change the crosshairuntil the actual Lat/Lon was entered and stored. Good to know. TNX AGN & 73, Bob K8BL

Hi Tim, I just put in the 6 character Grid and let SATPC calculate thecoordinates. Can't remember what I did before. I'll try doingthe actual Lat/Lon and see what happens. TNX, Bob K8BL

Did you use the grid square or your actual coordinates? I ended up using my GPS and then put the lat/lon in by hand and it worked much better... 73 de Tim K4SHF

I'm trying to get the crosshair of my present location shownproperly on the SATPC32 Map. When I was in EM54, I movedit successfully from my home QTH EN91. Now that I'm in EM32again, it doesn't want to move there. I updated "Observer" for themain map and also for WinAOS. I closed SATPC numerous times,but it still stays in EM54. Perhaps, it's an OCD thing. The calculationwork out OK for the passes when compared to AMSATDroid-Free,so it's completely usable. Having the crosshair correct is helpful whenwatching when the footprint begins/ends (AOS/LOS). TNX, Bob K8BL SATPC32 v.12.8c
