I am trying the SATPC32 version 12.8c, but I have some problems that I would like to comment on and hope for help.
1.- I have an interface provided for a few days for the FT-847, when starting SATPC32 is put into CAT mode and puts the frequencies of the selected satellite on the radio. When the satellite Doppler does not start in the VFO's of the radio.
2.- I create a group of satellites or a list, to re-start SATPC32 that list is no longer a priority, I have to re-open it in the foreground or view.
3.- I configured the Rotor G5500 with YAESU GS_232 interface, and the rotor does not work, I revise Setup_Rotor and I see that interface change only, it returns by default to the DDE interface.
All these problems may be related to using the test version ...? I need to buy the license to solve this? Who guarantees that everything works well ..?
thanks for your help.

Hi Maciel, 1. the program updates both frequencies of the RADIO (only) whenever the Doppler shift of the higher band changed by a certain amount of Hz or more (= "interval", see menu CAT). For testing set the interval for SSB to 10 and choose FO-29. The program will then update the radio frequencies when the Doppler shift of the downlink (UHF) changed by 10 Hz or more. I use intervals of 50 Hz for SSB and 100 Hz for FM sats. That are good practical values.
2. At program start the program will always use group "Standard" (FAQs file sect. 5d). Therefore add your favourite sats to group "Standard".
3. Select Yaesu_GS-232 from the list of supported controllers in menu "Rotor Setup". Then press the UPPER "Store" button and restart the program. It should now start the interface program "ServerSDX" and the symbol of "ServerSDX" should show up in the task line. Click on it to show ServerSDX normally. In the ServerSDX setup window choose an available COM port and the baudrate. Save the changes and restart SatPC32 once again. To test rotor control open menu "Rotor" and click - for example - the "Park" button.
