Bob,
I'm using a Green Heron Az/El with an Alpha Spid and SatPC32. Interface has worked flawlessly for 2 years with Max El at 90 degrees and Min El at 0. My recollection is that was the default. I didn't have to set the parameters.

Anyone notice that when tracking a bird that SatPC32 will go far above the limits set for Az & El within the Green Heron's own "RT-21 Setup Utility" program?
I double-checked that the limits for Elevation were to go no higher than 50 degrees.
A bit ago I was tracking CAS which was making an 86 degree pass over me.
I was on CW listening to my "VVVVV" 's ; looked out the window, to see the antenna was at 86-degrees and inches from being driven into my roof!
