HRD rotor settings
Just downloaded the HRD 6.5-0-196 revision to satellite tracker.Dont see any visable changes to the program yet!
I am using a REC-m/G5500 rotator. What settings needed to make HRD rotator software work?

There's a release notes document link on HRD site that has anything related to the Satellite program documented. There were quite a few changes from what I read.

Guys... with a G-5500... you'll have a GS-232A/B controller. When you connect in the Rotator app... you select the correct Yaesu controller... the default baud rate is 4800 (which is fine).
Make sure you can control the AZ of that rotor from within the Rotator app (which will verify that it's all connected properly).
Then start up the DDE functionality in Rotator... then you can enable the rotor from within the Satellite Tracking app.
