I used the eveluation copy of SatTrack program, I think the latest version. I have a LX-200 8" telescope,rom v3.34. After hooking up my laptop with my home...
Julius, It sounds like the time in your LX200 is wrong. The LX200 calculates planetary positions and of course date/time is an important parameter of that...
Thought it was time to update the group on what's been going on here... Since Christmas we have been working on new image processing software with the aim of...
I have the GPS, and I have the software, but have not tried yet. Planning to give it a go in a few days, and will let all know the results. Do we have...
Todd, If it does not, it will. I have a 12" LX200GPS ordered and anxiously waiting its arrival. You be can be sure I will do the best possible to optimize the ...

I opened up satellite tracker, and it seems to connect fine. Even the LX200 control panel works!! Now to get rid of all these clouds . . . btw, also works...
Hi Brent, I have a 10" GPS. Tried the program a few nights ago. It worked well in "leapfrog" mode. I had it set to "Autostar 495/497". I originally tried...
I just tried it again tonight with my 10" GPS and Windows XP. Once again, things went fine with the 497 Autostar driver using the "leapfrog" method. However,...
I noticed this thread about using the software with the LX200 GPS scopes but conversation seems to have stopped. Is this due to the lock up issue Art mentioned...
Dave, Art's lock-up problem occurred when he was using the "LX200" interface option instead of the "Autostar" interface. It does not surprize me as the "LX200"...
I would like to add I have used Brent's program to continuously track satellites with my old "Classic" LX-200. I found his program provided more accurate and...
Art, Brent, Thanks for the input! I downloaded the evaluation version and am anxiously looking forward to using it. If I might ask a question about Satellite...
Yes Dave, the early versions of Satellite Tracker were freeware then I started running into expenses. People comaplained about the pop-up ads of my free web...
And if Satellite Tracker isn't the best software bargain available anywhere, I don't know what is. High quality software, responsive "tech support", and an...
In MHO, This SW is so good, we should fall all over ourselves to support Brent. I'm in the "HW-Frimware" business for my "daytime" job, and I can assure ST ...
You could try "Orbitron" http://posh.republika.pl/orbitron.htm It is freeware but it doesn't have the scope interfaces or the tracking system that Brent has in...
Jim, It depends on what flavor of autostar you have. Rather than explain it all here, let me point you to: http://www.weasner.com/etx/autostar_info.html The...
Whoa Guys! I wasn't complaining about the $20, just curious. The price is not the issue since it is well below what some shareware costs to register which has...

A quote from Spaceflight Now (http://www.spaceflightnow.com/station/sts110/020402preview/) - if this happens it would put an end to pictures of ISS. "To...
If NASA choose to do this, it would just inspire us to create our own TLEs. Armatures are currently creating orbital elements for Near Earth Asteroids as a...
