Wondering if XW-1 was launched. I saw that China has just launched the
Yaogan 7 Remote-Sensing Satellite. The launcher, orbit, etc looks right
and is pretty close to the previously stated 20Dec data. Any updates out
there?

Not quite yet. The Yaogan launch was from a different facility and on a
different vehicle. I have seen a few posts on space forums rumoring that
the launch may be next week sometime. It is supposed to launch on a
CZ-2C from Taiyuan.

I?would like?to thank Erich, DK1TB for performing a change to his program to
help me accomplish what I needed to do.
?
I wanted to run my Yaesu G-5500 with my ST-1 controller (Fox Delta) with
just the AZ rotor and not use the EL rotor (antenna's in the attic so can't
use EL). The ST-1 would not continue to track AZ unless it received data
from the EL rotor. Erich sent me a modified version of SatPC32 that would
output the EL data as 0 and thus made the ST-1 function in just AZ.
?
Erich has supported me with every question and now went way beyond the "call
of duty" to modify his program - for me!
?
I have used other tracking software and have NEVER received support like I
have experienced from Erich!
?
Whats more is that he donates his revenue from SatPC32 to AMSAT!
He does this all for nothing!
?
My hat goes off to Erich for being an outstanding citizen in the AMSAT
community!
THANK YOU Erich!!
?
If you have not looked at SatPC32 I recommend you do:

?
While I am at it I would also like to thank Dinesh VU2FD - Fox Delta:
http://foxdelta.com/
for all of his support regarding his ST-1 & 3 that I own. They are a true
value and the support is excellent from Dinesh! TNX also to Dinesh!
?
I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas. I received my Christmas present
early from Erich!
