You might also check to be sure that you're not being digipeated by somebody terrestrial (perhaps a local igate that's also playing digi). If you can still digipeat off the ISS when it's over, say, India, it's not just a matter of old Keps.

Marc,
The ISS reboosted on the 3rd, which results in significant errors until all the Keps catch up. Make CERTAIN that you are looking at the latest Keps from Celestrak, AMATEUR.TXT. If you are using the AMSAT Keps, which come out weekly, it may be a few days before they catch up.

Hello group, after finally getting my SSB part of the station fully operational, I then moved on to getting my packet operations up and running , and with great success, one wee problem, I have noticed this when tracking the ISS, I am able to still digipeat off the station even long after it is supposed to be beyond the horizon according to my Satpc32 ISS software. My keps are up to date via the Satpc32 software, is there a error due to the large amount of mass now docked on the ISS? or have the keps not be uploaded in a timely fashion to the server I get my keps from?...
Run down of my operation conditions here are as follows...
Radio - Kenwood TS2000 Software SATPC32 + Satpc32 ISS PC - Dell P4 2.4Ghz CPU with internet connection
Is there another method of getting my keps to show more accurate tracking of this big bird?...
Regards,
