I should have been more specific. I run SatPc32 in two computers. The one that runs LVB has ISS about 40 min behind the other computer. All other satellites are right on. I have up dated the keps on both computers. Confused??

Bob, In SatPC32, click on "Satellite" and at the bottom of the window is says "File Date" with the date of the set. 73 Glenn AA5PK

Bob,
ISS being the odd one is the clue. It is the only object whose orbit is often reboosted. Usually the problem comes about if you are using the AMSAT weekly distribution. Note that you can update the NASA.ALL file and it will give today's date, but the data may be as much as a week old. You can dig into the actual file and determine the individual satelllite data date as has been described. The AMATEUR.TXT data are updated daily, sometimes more often. When you look at the SATPC32 Satellite window, check that both machines are looking at the same file, preferably AMATEUR.TXT, and that both have been updated.
