WARNING ORBITRON USERS! It may be something that I did, I am not sure, But I run Windows 7 operating system and I downloaded my TLE files from the stoff.pl web site and there is no data in the file, it wiped out my existing data and the other TLE file sources (celestrak) do not sync properly with Windows 7.
Orbitron is now not functioning on my Windows 7 based computer. If one of you nice folks have a solution for me email me direct no need to clutter the bulletin board.
Myself and another local ham have verified that it is the combination of Windows 7 and the stoff.pl TLE file.
I am going to also email stoff to tell him about this problem.
Be careful out there!

Oh swell. It also works for Xp users as well. *It is not limited to Win7. I would suggest not doing kep updates until this gets resolved!! *All the txt files for keps updates are still here but have not much useable data within and all have timestamps of when the last update was done. Possibly a formatting issue with celestrak since that is the source I update from. Is anyone using stoff.pl or space-trak and seeing similar problems?

An update this morning resolved the empty files. I wonder if we will ever hear what actually was the problem?
Hi, Seems, there was a temporary issue with celestrak data (source for stoff.pl). Seems that everything is working ok with latest update, what I believe will remain as standard. Best Regards,
Sebastian Stoff / www.stoff.pl
