[amsat-bb] Amsatdroid/SATPC32 mismatch

[Don KB2YSI]

 If I remember correctly, you can set your grid square or get it from GPS
in the options/preferences of AmsatDroid. I would check them out to see if
it got set via the manual method.

I would suggest trying ISS Detector on Android, I have removed virtually
all of the other tracker applications from my phone.
