Hi Ed, Mark, N8MH, and Alan, WA4SCA, reported the same problem 8 months ago. With your program version automatic satellite switching fails (and rotor control stops) in the following case: The program tracked a satellite with higher priority and after its setting should switch to a sat with lower priority. I have fixed that and the current release of V. 12.8d works flawlessly. A temporary solution: Set the "minimum Elevation" (menu "Rotor Setup") to a positive value, say, +1 deg. 73s, Erich, DK1TB Am 29.08.2019 um 03:27 schrieb Ed Krome via AMSAT-BB: > >I’m using registered satpc32 v.12.8c (also have 12.8d on another; same problem ) to control HDSDR and LVB tracker (serial, not usb, which is even more problematic), automatic satellite switching (now looking at wxsat’s). Sometimes, it all works fine. Other times, not. Like tonight, it won’t auto switch. Other times, When it does auto switch, it controls frequency just fine. But it may or may not move the antennas. Tonight it’s not auto switching, but when I manually click on the visible satellite, freq and rotor control start to work. Sometimes it will all work well for a few days. Then just quit. (It’s all on a good UPS). I sometimes think it just likes to mess with me. The other machine does the same thing. When it feels like it. Anybody have any words of wisdom ?
