[amsat-bb] Re: Can SatPC32 track the moon?

[Alan P. Biddle]

Ed,

The program is installed with newer versions automatically.  I am not
certain where the dividing line for "newer" is, however.  It might be time
to update to the latest version.

I don't currently use SatPC32 for the Moon (having both MoonSked and 
NOVA), but I did not find a folder named SuM in SatPC32.  For Moon 
az/el location, JT-65 provides that.  For controlling an antenna I 
have the Unitrac-2000 that runs with NOVA.  But my B5400 is broke at 
the moment, so Unitrac is not in use.

My SatPC32 is circa 2008 so maybe didn't have that folder back then?
