Hello Don, with the option "Center maps..." in the menu "Setup" / "Options" you can select whether the map shall be centered on longitude 0 (Greenwich) or the longitude of the user's location (I suppose longitude and latitude of your QTH are correctly shown in the upper left corner of the program window). If you leave the option "Center maps" unchecked the program will center the map on the longitude of the satellite's SSP. With "Zoom 2" it is always centered on the satellite to keep the footprint in the visible part of the map.

Hello folks, I installed "SatPc32" on a new Laptop. All went well except for my Lat and Long. When I enter my location, the map will not change. The center stays over Africa. My locator is fn02mr and the lat is 42.43 and long.

Is -78.55.

I tried uninstalling the software and reinstalling, but the info stays

even

when I clean the registry. Any suggestions???
