Hi Scott,
When selecting the group you want to use, make sure the correct TLE file is selected on the left part of the screen.
This behavior can happen when you for example add or remove a TLE file.

Hi Scott, to me it seems that the current Celestrak file amateur.txt is faulty and doesn't contain Keplerian data.
I download the Celestrak files noaa.txt and amateur.txt directly into my browser. To do so I opened Celestrak.SQF (SatPC32 menu "?", "Auxiliary Files") and copied the Celestrak addresses for noaa.txt and amateur.txt into the address line of my browser. The data of noaa.txt was displayed normally, with amateur.txt I got a blank sheet.
There is a copy of amateur.txt in the folder SatPC32_DataBackup (sub folder Kepler). The path to that folder is the same as the path of the data folder SatPC32, see footline of menu "Satellites". But the copy is an older file, of course.
