[amsat-bb] GJTRACKER Version 2.0 Now Available

[Lance Collister]

Hello!

While I was operating as E51SIX on 6m EME and had no internet, I sure missed the 
great world maps on the ON4KST chat pages, which show the moonrise "terminator" as 
it moves across the earth.  So, since I wanted to make sure to have that 
capability next time when I am out on DXpedition without the internet, I added 
that capability to GJTRACKER.

Version 2.0 of GJTRACKER is now available, and includes a fairly detailed world 
Field Locator map to show what parts of the world can see the moon (or any other 
celestial object).  This feature is accessed by selecting the "Real Time" mode 
when you run the program.  The GJHELP.pdf file has been updated to reflect the new 
addition to the Real Time window:

The map redraws itself every minute. Sorry, but it is not currently a user-sizable 
map. The screen size setting of 1280x768 pixels on my laptop is just big enough to 
show the entire world map at once.  CU on the moon!   GL and VY 73, Lance
