[amsat-bb] Re: tracking programs

[Michael Tondee]

Here's another vote for SatPC32. This program was great when I first 
purchased it and it has been updated several times since then with each 
update improving it even more so. Erich is great with customer support, 
usually a quick query here or a direct E-mail to him is answered within 24 
hours at the most.  Plus, as Alan says, proceeds go to AMSAT and that's  a 
good thing.
