As I am new to satellite operations I am testing out SatPC32 for radio control/tuning.
I am running SatPC32 in the DEMO mode currently and cannot get the radio CAT control to function at all.
I have a Yaesu FT-857D connected to my computer via a RT Systems USB-62 cable that functions properly with FTBasicMMO software as well as on my Mac computer where I am also testing MacDoppler.
Does the CAT radio control only operate when there is a viable satellite? or should it adjust the radio all of the time.
