Please forgive me if I sound rather green(no pun intended), because I
am a novice to satellites. I have orbitron installed on a computer.
Using the Rotor/Radio tab, we should be able to monitor the doppler
corrected receive and transmit frequencies. Any pointers ir tips? I
think the best approach is to get a serial cable to control the xcvr
from the computer. The next best pass for ka9scf and me is 2009z pass
on 4/20.
