[amsat-bb] FW: Doppler file

[Bob]

Well there is updating the Keps (not sure if you mean that).  There is also
updating your personal uplink/downlink correction factors.  The latter is
why SQF files are personal.  I use two different rigs (and IC-9100 at home
and a IC-910H on the road), the SQF files are different.
