If you run the standard predict and want to track more than 22  
satellites thats something you'll have to get used to.  On my version  
of predict the method of selecting satellites is different and allows  
the 22 satellite limit to be removed.  There is a limit of 250 on my  
version but before setting that I had the program running with well  
over 1000 satellites at once. The only problem with that was you  
couldn't see more than around 200 in the multi-track display before  
the font size got too small to read.  I tend to let it run with  
around 50-60 at the moment.
