Hi Ray. I used Celestrak for many years. For some reason several years ago I switch to nasabare, then to nasa.all. I unfortunately don't recall why I made those choices, but at the time there was a good reason to do so. Maybe I will remember :-)
Anyway as I used to say, all is once again well in kb2m land....

Jeff et al,
I have been using the nasabare file. I think it’s because someone once told me it’s updated more frequently than whatever I had been using. There have been no problems with nasabare.
I could be mixed up here (often the case), but think I heard Keplerian connoisseurs dine on elements from Celestrak.Those are updated every 15 minutes(?) But I don’t know how to cook them in SatPC32 so I just go the fast-food route. :-)

Several of us that talk on the linear birds in the morning have noticed that SatPC32's Satellites, Update Keps, selected keps file, routine returns either a 'No Keplerian data found!' or a 'Download failed' error. I had to manually copy and paste the kep data from the AMSAT site to get a fresh set. I tried this on two different PC's here. As I haven't updated any of my s/w on this end I'm assuming this is an issue on the AMSAT kep site. Anyone know what's going on here ? 73 Jeff kb2m ----------------------------------------------------------- Sent via AMSAT-BB(a)amsat.org.
