John, I didn't try 2.76 and should have mentioned that I use V3, sorry about that. I actually logged issue 0000136 for some search peculiarities in V3 which...

Hi, I've loaded tlesetup.exe and VBRun60sp5.exe. I understand that this is necessary to obtain the TLE's for artificial satellites. OK, I click on TLE...
Hi, I correct another bug recently but it is possible there still some other. Can you indicate which telescope type you try to connect and the name you select...

The Henry Draper catalog contain very crude position this is why I not build a real catalog. But a search index is necessary because many still use it to name...
