AMSAT Passes

by William Young

Thanks, Dick, Thanks, Drew ! Bill - - - - - Sure! Positive longitude values are in the Eastern Hemisphere and negative values are in the Western Hemisphere! You can also make Florida (83°W) a longitude of 277° (E) and come out with the same as -83° Dick Jansson, KD1K kd1k(a)amsat.org kd1k(a)arrl.net - - - - - I think maybe you should just use the North/South and East/West suffixes. When I tried it with a - sign it didn't work at all. 73, Drew KO4MA

AMSAT Passes

by William Young

Using the Passes search feature on the AMSAT site, are correct results obtained by using a negative sign in front of longitude numbers, or by leaving the negative sign off ? I get different calculations for each way. Thanks ! Bill
