[amsat-bb] Tracking software

["Tim Billingsley" <kd5ckp@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have seen some discussion of tracking software here and mention of
features, but I am new to all of this and not real sure where I will go with
it. What I would like is to hear from you guys that use this stuff is what
you prefer and why you like the particular package you are using or ones you
are using and why in each case. I don't have a lot of elaborate beams and
rotators to contend with because I have yet to put up a tower since I have
not acquired a rotator yet. All I have are simple homebrew antennas with the
exception of a Ringo Ranger a generous(now SK) Ham gave me when I first got
into VHF. I have a few beams in the attic but as I said no tower .... YET

OK enough rambling ... consider this an opportunity to promote and educate.
I have looked at some packages, but am not sure which to go with. I do
prefer the Windows programs since I have better control of the font size on
screen and in the help files ... I have somewhat limited vision.

Looking forward to your responses
