Re: [amsat-bb] Doppler.Sqf Editor for SatPC32
Take a look at http://www.ne.jp/asahi/hamradio/je9pel/satslist.htm or http://www.dk3wn.info/satellites.shtml as alternatives (both linked from http://www.amsat.org/?page_id=179).
The old AMSAT page you mentioned was a complete PITA to maintain, especially at 10-20 satellites a launch, and decaying orbits and dying cubes and such.
If you or anyone else want to build a table or spreadsheet that we can host on the new page, I'll post it, but I will need long-term help to maintain it. I took over the maintenance of the old sat status pages before my current job, and more importantly, my two harmonics.

Jan,
I wish it were possible but as far as the Doppler.sqf file is concerned the only useful piece of information in the tle files is the satellite name. The rest is just identification numbers and a mathematical description of the orbit. It could be a school bus or a cubesat, all you can tell from the Tle data is where it is and where it is going. What is needed is a machine readable list of satellite names and the frequency/mode data. I was actually working on it using the almost perfect satellite information page on the old AMSAT-NA website. Unfortunately the information was scattered over a large number of nice looking pages on the new site.
tnx & 73,

Hi Tom,
Compliments a very nice development - Would it be possible to also open TLE object file(s) and add entries to doppler.sqf based on the object files?

Hi,
I wrote this little program to try and help out with the great Doppler.sqf files posted on the AMSAT-UK web site.

In the remote possibility that it could be of interest or use to someone else here is the link.
