Little help. Where in SAT32 do I look for SuM for moon tracking. Also looking for suggestions as to the best way to record SAT contact from head set out put using sat 32 and a 910 radio. Thanks Jack WA1ZDV
Jack,
You can find it in your programs list. Click on SatPC32, then select SuM out of the list.

In Orbitron there is selection TARGET. Choose there MOON.

I joined AMSAT as a life member at the Orlando Hamcation a couple of years ago, and acquired SAT32 at the same time.
I followed the directions on the previous email and cannot find the program SuM in the SAT32 folder or in the program list when SAT32 is running. (Do I need to look on the original CD installation disk as well?)
Alternatively, I think I will load the keps for the Moon into SAT32; I know there was a thread on this subject a few months ago.
Thanks for a great BB!

Philip,
When you install SATPC32, it creates a folder in the program start menu which includes numerous programs: SATPC32ISS, AOS, LISTEN, SuM, SuMLISTEN, and others. It does not appear in the program list from within SATPC32. If you can't located the SATPC32 start menu folder, take a look in "C:\PROGRAM FILES\SATPC32" for all the EXE files. SuM.EXE will be one of them.
Thanks for joining AMSAT, and especially the Life Membership!

In my satellites drop down in SatPC32, I have a file called moon.txt. I can not recall now where I found it. I think it was from a comment here on this BB. I tested it once and went outside to see where the moon was at that time; and that tracking seemed to be correct. If I find the original email, I'll send it on.

Hello Philip, what SatPC32 version are you using? Older program versions (older than 12.8 if I remember correctly) didn't include the SuM files. These programs could be downloaded separately from my website. Beginning with V. 12.8 the SatPC32 setup program installs also the SuM files into the SatPC32 folders.
