Mike, I don't see any times listed for the Amsat tracking.   I think the
problem is people are saying that HRD "lags" (ie, the track is correct, but
several seconds/minutes behind).   Regardless of if that is true or not,
what I would suggest to verify HRD's tracking is to open two windows, one
with AO-91 or 92 in HRD (realtime, during an actual pass), and one with
Amsat Argentina's website:

http://amsat.org.ar/pass.htm

Be sure to enter your correct grid square and select the correct satellite,
and it will tell you current Az/El and doppler frequencies for Uplink and
Downlink.   I've found this site to be very reliable, and no installs are
required (it runs in the browser).
