Don, I have had no issues using the LVB Tracker with Windows 10 and SatPC32. One thing to check is how you connect the LVB to the PC. If your PC does not have a serial port, then you are probably using a "serial to USB" converter cable. My experience has been that many of the cheap cables use a chipset which is not compatible with the ham software I use. I always make sure that the "serial - USB" cable I purchase is based on the FTDI chipset. I have never had a problem using a "serial - USB" cable based on that FTDI chipset. There are a number of manufacturers of these cables. I got mine from Byte Runner - but there are many more vendors. 73, Rolf NR0T EN34

I recently obtained a used LVB tracker (USB version) that has an older DLP-USB232M interface module installed. I am trying to use my LVB tracker with both Windows 7 & Windows 10 via my USB port. Can anyone give me some advice regarding LVB tracker compatibility with Windows 7 & 10 versions and any set up recommendations? It looks like I need the current driver for the DLP-USB232M. But this driver is not available on the DLP site and they are closed until March 25th. I am using the current version of SatPC32. 73, Don W7AIN
