Outstanding!  I had the program already setup to show me the squint, but
didn't have the other setup properly.  Got it fixed now!  

Thanks,

Hi Eric,

Yes, I ran into this recently.  It's rather obscure but here is what I
know.

1) In the current view, you should make sure you have squint visible.
This 
is by selecting "Configure Current View" and then select the Text tab.
One 
of the options there is Squint. When you first select this the squint
will 
probably always be zero. (Nice if that could be the case in the real
world, 
huh?)

2) Then select Setup/Satellites and select AO-40.  Then select Sched,
and 
then in the Satellite Mode Schedule dialogue box there is an area called

Squint Type.  Make sure you have "AO-40 High Gain" selected.

73,

Emily
