Does anyone know of a program that will 'repair' tle's so they have the
right format, spacings, checksums, etc. to assure they will read into
various tracking programs?

There?s still NASAWASH, which will do some of that.

http://mustbeart.com/software/nasawash.html

The program could do more to fix spacing problems, but some of what you want
is impossible or very difficult. The NASA format is pretty compact and
doesn?t have a lot of redundancy that would make it easy for a program to
figure out what was meant by some corrupted version.

Hi All,



I am planning to get started on the linear satellites and have bought a
G5500 rotator and two Wimo antennas for 2/70.



Before I put the rotator onto the roof I have been using it in the shack to
make sure it does what it should. However

when I get overhead passes, with the Flip 180 feature turned on, the rotator
doesn't take the antenna over the top, it still

stops at the maximum elevation and then turns to the new azimuth (not sure I
explained that very well).



Also, I have set SATPC to A+ hoping that the software would automatically
switch to the next satellite - it doesn't.



What am I doing wrong guys?



Is there a friendly operator in the Hertfordshire area of the UK I can make
contact with?



Thanks in advance



Peter

Joel, don't forget to consider an Elk on a rat shack (or other) rotor.
Manually aim it watching your software..1 feed line...nice gain...low
profile and much more efficient that the QFH & Lindy. Very cost efficient. I
have pix and some construction notes on request

Subject: [amsat-bb] Setup Complications

This is not going as smoothly as I had anticipated (does anything ever go as
anticipated?).

I had initially planned on using my Arrow II antenna without the diplexer
and an old Alliance U-110 rotor. As you'll read below, that doesn't look
like it will happen anytime soon.

Even though the group was helpful trying to get the Alliance U-110 rotor
controller synced (sunc?) up, It does not work reliably. It will turn in one
direction, but not the other. I do not have the money to send the controller
off for repair and Norm doesn't repair the U-100's and -110's. I could buy
one from him, but again, that's money that isn't in the budget. After this
issue, I took the controller apart and after a couple of hours, I finally
get it to step in one direction correctly, but I cannot get it to go in the
opposite direction. Shorting the shaft to the contacts in the controller
rotates the rotor correctly so I am fairly certain the rotor is good - I
have a controller issue. The online diagrams show a blow-up of the parts,
but not now to correctly put it back together (there is a tab on the back of
the black dial face and I'm not sure where that or the contacts on the
actual geared dial go. I'm going to reluctantly email Norm and ask him, but
he does this as a business and I don't want to interfere with that. In the
past, he has been nice enough to offer advice though. I'm still playing with
it and it hasn't "whooped" me yet.

For now, I do *not* have a rotor I can use. I am looking at purchasing
another controller if I'm too stupid for Norm to help ;) . They're fairly
cheap on the "Bay of E."

Without a reliable rotor, my pursuit has led me to QFH and Lindenblad
antennas. Which of the two would be the better performer? I have found the
pages with build instructions, but what do folks here think. I know they
will be poor performers compared to CP yagis, I'm not looking for that
comparison. I understand they're omni antennas with CP. I'm okay with that.
I realize I'm not concentrating all of my RF in a narrow beam width. That's
okay too. Yep, I will be disappointed. I'm disappointed now with the rotor
controller. :)

I had initially thought that I'd put whatever I got inside the attic.
With an omni, that probably wouldn't be prudent. I have enough coax for two
runs to the chimney about 60' away.

So, any thoughts comparing the QFH to the Lindy?

Again, thanks for all the help getting me going again.

73,
Joel - W4JBB

Hi Joel,

If you're into homebrewing something, instead of fixing a rotor
controller by making a new antenna, why not make a new controller?

The U1xx Rotor you have sounds like what I have.  The controller is
simply a mechanical counter that moves a wheel either left or right 10
degrees per "click" of the internal microswitch, stopping when the wheel
aligns with the dial you set.

This can be done with a simple micro-controller chip and a bit of
software you can write.

My controller does full Az / El control of a pair of rotors, with both
manual and computer-controlled operation.  A lot more than what you get
with the original controller, but you don't need to go that far.

Take a look at http://home.wavecable.com/~ko6th at the top of the page
on the left is a link to the design document.  You can get a much more
cost effective micro-controller chip these days, compared to what I
used, but the principles are the same.  Experiment and see what you can
build.

Have fun,

Greg  KO6TH

Peter,

Call??

What rotator interface are you using?

Do you have your desired satellites set in the PRIOR.SQF file?

Hi Peter,
you have two options in menu "Rotor Setup":
1. Limit max. elevation to 90? and activate 450? azimuth range,
2. Limit azimut range to 360? and activate Flip mode (180? elevation).

You cannot combine 450? azimut and 180? elevation. That isn't necessary.
The purpose of both options is the same and the results practically also.. I
would prefer option 1 since it is mechanically easier.

The program  performs automatic satellite switching (A+) only for satellites
that have an entry in aux. file "Prior.SQF". This text file can be opened
and edited form  menu  "?", "Auxiliary Files." The file itself contains the
necessary instructions.

73s, Erich, DK1TB

Thanks Paul.  I had forgotten about nasawash.
But it did not help with these sets because it requires a valid checksum
and these have no checksum byte at all.  Of course adding an arbitrary
byte for the checksum does not help.

How about one that reads in tle's without regard to checksums and
creates AMSAT format. Then creates TLEs from the AMSAT format. Perhaps
that would clean them up. . .

Or something that reads a TLE and creates a valid checksum'd output. . .

Where in the world are you getting TLE sets that don?t have a checksum? Boo!

It would be a one-line change to make NASAWASH always ignore the checksum on
input (it always regenerates the checksum on output). With a little more
effort this could be controlled by a command-line switch.

I can probably generate a quick hack executable for you if needed. Let me
know what platform. Or if you?re set up to compile C programs you shouldn?t
have any trouble modifying NASAWASH.

Thanks Paul.

Yes, I had the same reaction when I realized there were no checksums and
I have fed back to this sat owner the errors and omissions in these tles
for their action.  I have no control over that.

Alan sent me Rick von Glahn's program Element Manager and I got it to
fix these up enough they read into NOVA.  But EM is flagging a couple of
values in red.  I have pulsed Rick about what checks he makes. He lives
near me so I can go pound on his door if necessary :)

EM does seems to do a lot of stuff and I don't have the help file. But
I'm sure Rick will be supportive.

I think I'm good for now.
