[amsat-bb] dumbest questions in the world

[Pedro Converso]

Hi,

Please check if the house Icon on map shows on your location.

If it is not, click on 'Change', then click on 'Reset' and enter
either your grid locator or latitude/longitude, then click 'Resolve'
and finally click 'Set New'

Should bring map showing 'house icon' over your location and develop
passes on your local time sorted by time.

Make sure you have correct date/time and timezone on your device.

Thanks for trying !! and good luck chasing birds.

Best 73 from Buenos Aires.

lu7abf, Pedro Converso
