[amsat-bb] Re: Repository for all Doppler.SQF data

[Stefan Wagener]

Help me understand something.

Doppler.sqf is a file specific for SatPC32. When you download the
program, Erich has provided a basic doppler.sqf file for you to use.
Most folks have customized them with +- frequency adjustments for
their own location, setup, radio etc. As much as I like plug and play,
don't you want your own setup for your station and consequently learn
how to do it? Looking up a new frequency for a satellite is as easy as
reading emails and editing the files is even easier. Maybe I am
missing something.....

Now, It only takes one volunteer to compile information and submit it
to AMSAT. How wants to do it?

Happy New Year!
