[amsat-bb] TLE UP-Dater In Orbitron

[Joe]

Hi Wouter,
And everyone that has replied directly.

I always run the program as Administrator.

If I did not want to mess it all up, I'd do a screen video capture to 
show ya all what happens.

But the first time it took me months of fighting this thing and never 
could get it to work till the one chap did the team viewer thing and 
fixed it.

Sorry, Just thought it might be a  common problem. That others have 
experienced.

I just keep saying no, then click on the manual way and do it anyway.
