Bob, the AO-73 Keps are now available from the Celestrak site.
a. Copy the following address to the aux. file Celestrak.SQF (all aux. files can be opened and edited from menu "?", "Auxiliary Files"): http://www.celestrak.com/NORAD/elements/tle-new.txt
b. Copy the following line to the file AmsatNames.txt 39417 13066B AO-73 That will convert the Celestrak sat name 213-066B to AO-73. In menu "Satellites" choose "SatNames", "Use Amsat Nanmes if Available".
c. Copy the folling lines to Doppler.SQF: AO-73,145934.0,,USB,,,,TLM AO-73,145960.0,435140.0,USB,LSB,REV,,, Transponder
In menu "Satellites" choose "Sat Groups" and select - for example- the group "Diverse" to have the sat in a separate list. With "Update Keps" download the Celestrak file. It will appear in the left list of the menu. Click on the file name. In the middle list you will see AO-73 with this name. Select it for the right list and click "OK". The group will later automatically use the chosen Celestrak file.
73s, Erich, DK1TB
