Keith,
The name you use in the DOPPLER.SQF file must match the name in the Keps exactly for the program to match them up. ARISSat-1 is identified as RADIOSCAF-B in the AMATEUR.TXT file, but ARISSAT1 in the NASA.ALL file. You should be using the first, since it is more current. Change that in the DOPPLER.SQF file, and it should work.
Once your get it working, you can experiment with the AMSATNAMES.TXT file which allows you to create a sort of translation so that SATPC32 will recognize different names.
73s,
Alan WA4SCA

Hi Group
Have just downloaded the trial version of SATPC32 and have most things working ok.
The only thing I cant get to work is the Doppler tracking SatPC2 controls the rig an Icom 910 fine with the default satellites well.
It give examples of what to added in the Doppler.SQF file so here are my questions.
Should the Doppler.SQF file have been created during installation I had to create my manually?
I have put an entry in for ARiSSAT1 but SATPC32 is not picking this information up from the file.
I know that this is a newbie error but could somebody point me in the right direction
73 and Thanks
Keith GU6EFB
