Hi Tony,

I think I have a possible solution. I am able to reproduce your situation by doing the opposite of my suggestion below. See if this fixes it. If not, maybe someone else can pin it down for you.

Go to 'Satellites' in the menu bar and check the list of satellites in the 'selected [standard]' window. Do your FM birds have a star ( * ) to their left? If not, click on the satellite so it highlights in blue and chose the button "show on/off". This will put a star next to the satellite name. Choose OK and see if that resolved it. You might need to restart SatPC32 before the changes occur (but I don't think so).

I hope this helps.

Good luck and 73

After a few months of inactivity, SATpc32 is showing a funny but unfortunate feature: out of the 6 sats I have active (no change from previous use), only the linear birds show up on the screen. They are shown in the normal way, with the outline of their footprint always visible. The FM birds don't show up at all until they are clicked on in the A, B, C, etc. list at the bottom of the screen. When they are clicked, the inside of the footprint is shown and illuminated, but without the outline around the footprint. And only 1 of those birds can be shown at any time. The linear birds continue to be shown properly.

Any ideas would be appreciated.
