Thanks for your input.
“Copying someone’s doppler.sqf file is also not a good idea! That file is customized by someone based on the keps and satellite name they are using and sometimes even specific for their location since SatPC32 lets you adjust the doppler control based on your location and satellite and internally adjust the doppler.sqf frequencies.”
Okay so send the matching TLE file when sending a custom Doppler.sqf file. If they changed the name of the bird in the TLE to match the Doppler file, than that TLE file should be made available. We do thank the ones that provide the Doppler file but let’s make it make sense.
“The author of SatPC32 has spent thousands of hours working on this program and he gets no financial return. He has donated the software to AMSAT and still updates it for new radios and features! Complaining about that is just not right!”
Umm, I paid for the software so I don’t know what this means. This group is used to troubleshoot and ask questions about the program, among other things, so that’s what’s being done here.
We’re at a time where everyone feels a need to add an opinion. That’s great, I just ask that it’s helpful and productive.
Have a nice day everyone, 73
