I use SatPC32 on a Asus HA1005 series netbook (1.6 gHz,2 geg ram). I have no issues at all. This one has 3 USB ports. In fact that is my main portable PC device.

As to a recommendation I use an HP at work for RF walk testing and do not like the quality. The Asus seems so much better.

Good luck

AMSATers,

Congratulations on getting ARISS going. I hope we learn a great deal from it that will help in future missions.

On another matter entirely, has anyone had success running Sat PC32 on a netbook? I operate only as a portable, and am looking for the lightest computer for the purpose. The computer can be very simple, but it must have 2 USB ports (I run 2 FT817s). Do netbooks generally have 2 USB ports? Any other suggestions would be most welcome.

Tnx and 73, Tony, N2UN, LM183 _______________________________________________ Sent via AMSAT-BB@amsat.org. Opinions expressed are those of the author. Not an AMSAT-NA member? Join now to support the amateur satellite program! Subscription settings: http://amsat.org/mailman/listinfo/amsat-bb
