[amsat-bb] How to add Moon Keps to SatPC32

[Charlie -K3VDB-]

How do I add the Moon Keps to SatPC32. I have the Keps in Word Pad
but no luck in adding them.

Thanks
Charlie

If you are using KEPS such as below

MOON
1 00000U 00000A 10019.90529622 .00000000 00000-0 00000-0 0 0004
2 00000 25.1631 348.5977 0637000 142.8591 221.8486 00.036600996 6

They don't work in SatPC32 12.8 until your change the Sat number on both
lines to something greater than "0"

So, for example, the following will work

MOON
1 00001U 00000A 10019.90529622 .00000000 00000-0 00000-0 0 0004
2 00001 25.1631 348.5977 0637000 142.8591 221.8486 00.036600996 6

Tested under Win 7 Starter on EeePC Netbook.

Charlie,

SatPC32 has a special program for the Sun and Moon. It's called SuM. You can find it under the Start/Programs button, with the SatPC32 programs.

It's a stand alone program that already has the information for the sun and the moon! Couldn't be easier...
