Just installed on Slackware 14.1 and found the executable at
~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/SatPC32/SatPC32.exe
YMMV.

I did successfully get HamLib, FlDigi and CQrLog all to run and talk to my FT847 using CAT. My attempts to get GPredict to work well though have failed even after compiling and installing the most recent version that addresses the earlier FT847 bugs. It now works, talking to the CAT port on my radio however the software locks up while trying to track a satellite pass. I'm thinking as some feared this old Pentium III may just not have enough horse power!
I then tried Wine, thinking I might run it from within Ubuntu to then run theSatPC32.exe. I guess I don't know the correct language to fine the path and call up this exe from my Windows partition. Anyone have any suggestions in this regard?
Thanks to all, I've learned a lot but may have to face the music and find a more modern computer. 73 Rick W2JAZ _______________________________________________ Sent via [email protected].
