Need a little help as I have a problem with the timing between the count down window and the Win Aos window. There is a discrepancy of about 20 minutes with Win Aos running about 20 mins late. How do I correct this? Thanks Jack WA1ZDV
Hi Jack,
Maybe you are using different KEPs files in the two programs? (SatPC32 and WinAOS)? Be sure to select the right file to use in both programs...

Usually mismatching Keps...especially an odd number...but check your computer time for the correct timezone...and the program's offset for same.
It is always possible you are 1 orbit off unless you are antenna tracking...then it probably wouldn't be there at all...one orbit = about 1-1/2 hours...at least it's within 10 minutes of aos (maybe)
