I’m sure this has been covered in the past, but it’s kicking my butt.
With the proliferation of LEO satellites in recent years, amateurs are fortunate to have a lot of birds available for use. Like many hams, I use SatPC32 to control my rig, and track upcoming passes.
Their sub-program, Countdown does a good job of listing upcoming passes and their AOS/LOS times. However, it’s limited to 12 satellites. If you try to add additional birds, you get the dreaded “zu viele Satelliten!” message. Translation: Too Many Satellites.
I’m sure there must be a work-around that involves creating multiple groups, or something, but I haven’t been able to crack this.
Does anyone else have a good method?
I know Ham Radio Deluxe has been working to improve their satellite program. Is anyone using this currently? Is it a better option?

Please contact Erich. He has a beta release that doubles the # of satellites in the group, in the main application window and in the schedule window. It's working very well for me.

Hopefully, Erich releases this version soon to everyone, saving him being bombarded with requests for the beta version! :)
