[amsat-bb] SatPC32 and Satellites Question

[Alan Blind]

Hi Erich.  Thanks for the response.

Here is my custom list.  I believe these are all Low Earth Sats..

AO-07, AO-73, AO-91, AO-92, CAS-4A, CAS-4B, IO-86, SO-50, XW-2A, XW-2B,
XW-2C, XW-2F.

I believe some may not have complete data sets....could that be causing the
failure to sort?  If so, how do I identify the culprit?
