The issue isn't AOS times matching its todo with doppler correction.
Previously (Not aware it's been fixed) it doesn't allow for proper calibration between radio and the software so doppler is never correct so you drift in an odd way.
HRD has always tracked a satellite in the sense of rotator pointing beyond that, however, it's got/had some really odd quirks.
Before I gave up I used it on FM satellites but for automated control when using linear it was just unusable.
If there's been some sudden correction recently Mike then do let us know.
(Sorry can't help offer experience to dev, C++,MFC isn't my strong point more a slap together simple C# apps to interact with apps todo what I want)

I run HRD Sat, SatPC32 and MacDoppler on my computer and all the AOS times match. I am running the latest release from September 2017 of HRD Sat.

As someone said previously, it's probably a math problem that got buggered up somewhere along the way.
We will get this fixed.

I have noticed mention about issues with HRD Sat tracking. No "specific"
problems were mentioned I have used HRD for may years, and know it pretty well. After the last few "updates", an upcoming sat pass in HRD, the pass over my QTH, is about 5 - 10 minutes later. I, also run SatPC32 at the same time, along with pass predictions from other Web sites. All of the predictions agree, except for HRD, reporting the pass later. I have missed many passes using HRD. When I switched to SatPC32, I started hearing passes. My "keps" are current, QTH is correct, time is correct, and all the "personal" information is correct in the HRD Logbook. I am "totally" stumped.
