You can build a unique set of TLEs (Keplerian element sets) and load just them into Gpredict. You know how to update from a local file - actually it is update from a local directory/folder, not a file.

Andrew, I'm not taking it the wrong way, but I have to disappoint you. Gpredict will always remain a simple application focusing on the specific task of tracking satellites. No integrated SDR, no gateway, no email, no ... It's a spare time project and everybody does the best that they can. It's free and open source. People can take what they like and leave the rest :) Alex On Mon, Dec 4, 2017 at 4:19 PM, Andrew Rich <vk...@te...> wrote: > I really like gpredict and I don’t want this to be taken the wrong way > > I want gpredict to be the best it can be > > Here is my wish list > > Ignore the stuff that already exists > > I use MacDoppler and that is the THE closest thing to what I need but the author REFUSES to support SDR > > 01.

Andrew, "I think the company you are looking for is called AGI and the product, STK, has been under heavily funded continuous development for a couple of decades. I looked pretty hard at it a long time ago, and it was very impressive. at the time I could do what this software does for only about $25k and a couple of weeks of work." This is a little open source project that WAS built up for Linux that is not being actively developed. The fact that the very busy author occasionally answers questions, is a complete bonus. If you would like to work on those extensions, have at it ! No, Really ! not being cynical or sarcastic. Please ! I would *love* to see just a simple hook to start up a shell program to do *anything* when the sat come into view and pass out of view. Even just improving rigdtrl would be a big help. It could use some SDR support ! Maybe allow some commands and feedback so it could do some of the other things on your list. Also, a general question. Isn't the program doing a orbital prediction, not actively tracking ? Tracking means to me watching the sky (somehow) and following the physical object. You make predictions of the position in time based on the orbital elements. ie NORAD does the tracking. -Gar. > I really like gpredict and I donât want this to be taken the wrong way > > I want gpredict to be the best it can be > > Here is my wish list > > Ignore the stuff that already exists > > I use MacDoppler and that is the THE closest thing to what I need but the > author REFUSES to support SDR > > 01.

Alex, Thanks for the update. If I find this Windows version is not working well, I’ll switch over to a more recent Linux build. I like the ease of Gpredict. So far, it does what I want it to do very easily. I’m glad to hear your plans are to continue developing it. -Tom, W0GPW ________________________________ From: Alexandru Csete <oz...@gm...> Sent: Tuesday, October 31, 2017 8:35:09 AM To: Gpredict discussion Subject: Re: [Gpredict-discussion] updated .tsrp files? Guys, You should really consider using something else on windows, at least until gpredict 2.0 is released. What you are running is an arbitrary snapshot built for windows, neither maintained nor supported and things have changed a lot since that binary was built. We no longer distribute trsp files with gpredict but download from a central SatNOGS database. This functionality is not available in the binary that you are using. When I have finished v1 of the project that I am working on now I will turn my attention to gpredict again and finish a new release. However, I doubt it will be supported on windows, unless somebody takes care of creating and maintaining the windows builds. I neither have time nor interest in doing that. My objective with gpredict was indeed to demonstrate that we can have a cool satellite tracking application on linux. 73 Alex OZ9AEC On Tue, Oct 31, 2017 at 9:36 AM, pa3 eaq <pa...@ho...> wrote: > Hi Tom, > I have the same problem, I can't find XW-2 satellites in the list, How can I > fix this? > Also I have no idea about the tsrp files, just I update online, but not > help. > Same question here as you. > Tnx 73 > Jille PA3EAQ > > > -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- > Van: Tom Dixon [mailto:ta...@ou...] > Verzonden: dinsdag 31 oktober 2017 03:25 > Aan: gpr...@li... > Onderwerp: [Gpredict-discussion] updated .tsrp files? > > I'm a new user to Gpredict and starting to use it for rig control.

Hi Tom, I have the same problem, I can't find XW-2 satellites in the list, How can I fix this? Also I have no idea about the tsrp files, just I update online, but not help. Same question here as you.

Well, I think I have this mostly figured out. I pulled .trsp files from https://github.com/csete/gpredict/tree/master/data/trsp and put them in my gpredict-win32-1.4\share\gpredict\data\trsp folder and after a restart they mostly work. The only file I could not find was for EO-88, named 42017.trsp I think I can build that one after looking at the others. -Tom, W0GPW ________________________________ From: Tom Dixon <ta...@ou...> Sent: Monday, October 30, 2017 8:24 PM To: gpr...@li...

I looked through the mailing list archives, and did some internet searching, and did not find what I was looking for. Are updated files maintained anywhere? If not, I'll see what I can do to create new .tsrp files for these satellites I want to track.

Please use the user manual for reference instead of some old wiki page I used for drafting a design. Also, if you search the archives you will find several discussions about IC-910 support. In short: it's broken and needs to be fixed. Alex On Fri, Aug 25, 2017 at 1:03 AM, Alex Becerra <ale...@gm...> wrote: > Hello all, > > I would like to use the ICOM 910h for Simplex RX-TX operation.

Hello all, I would like to use the ICOM 910h for Simplex RX-TX operation. That means, using the same band (UHF) for uplink and downlink in half duplex operation correcting the frequencies for uplink and downlink boith separately (maybe in separated VFOs) I found the following link http://wiki.oz9aec.net/index. php/Doppler_Tuning_Algorithm_for_Gpredict but I couldn't make the Icom 910h behaves as I want. Also, when I read the DCD signal it gives me a 1 for SQL open and 0 for close (transmission) which is the opposite to PTT (1 for SQL close/transmission) which leads me to the opossite result (it swaps frequencies for uplink/downlink) How can I make my rig work as I want? Which configuration should I use in GPredict? I'm using ICOM's IC-CT17 interface to communicate mi computer with the rig. Thank you! Best regards, Alex. |

I am having problems with Macdoppler turning on the T_SQL on my ICOM 910H under CIV control. I turned to gpredict I see and accept that predict can connect to gqrx and thats ok So i ran netcat listening on port 7356 Nothing and gpredict bombs out to a “engage” I can telnet into my netcat listener on 7356 All I want to do is turn the port 7356 that would go to gqrx into a CIV packer in perl to command my radio Comments ? I am getting to the stage of making my own raspberry pi with predict and do the whole thing myself Can we get CIV control added to grpedict ? Andrew |

Yes, these are nightly builds generated whenever there is a change in the source code repository. It also includes translations not yet merged in the main code base.

Chuck, Thanks for the info. I do not remember the exact details around what has improved since the last 1.3 release, but a lot has changed for sure. Thomas: I'm sure there are some scenarios where gpredict does not control the rotator in a proper way. Much of this code was written long time ago by people who did not have experience or access to real hardware and fixing these things will take some time. You are most certainly welcome to take a look at the source code and see if you can come up with improvements.

This means the rotator had to spin 180 degrees to get to the 193 degree heading. By the time the rotator had turned this far, the satellite was already down to 55 degrees elevation. Certainly it would have been more efficient for it to have gone to 13 degrees azimuth and 91 degrees elevation, "flipping over onto its back", as it were. I did not see this behavior. I've gone into Edit > Preferences > Interfaces > Rotators and verified that Max Az is 450 and Max El is 180. Any tips then to get Gpredict to properly utilize this full range?

I've been using Gpredict to control it but I'm frustrated with the fact that Gpredict only sends elevation commands up to 90 degrees, while the rotator is capable of going as far as 180 degrees. I want to modify Gpredict to make full use of the rotator, so I downloaded the source code. I want to compile my own version of Gpredict prior to making changes to it. I downloaded the Geany IDE, and loaded the main.c file from the Gpredict source download.

Hi again Thomas To find which version you are on try this: go to software manager and search for gpredict, then double click on gpredict and scroll down to details, this should give the version. My version when i do this is 1.4-brz1153-po1062-pak23-ubuntu16.04.1. The newest packages are at gpredict-team ppa https://launchpad.net/~gpredict-team/+archive/ubuntu/daily. You can add the ppa to Software Sources by following the instructions on that page to add via the terminal: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gpredict-team/daily sudo apt-get update The image you attached didn't make it thru. I can testify to the fact that the above version works. Since i have a G-5500 like you we know that works also. The problem is in the chain between those two ends. so that leaves rigctrld and your actual interface device itself. I am using rigctrld with -m set to 601. I have a homemade interface device so i can't help with that. I am using the yaesu 232A protocol with that. So what actual device are you using? Which protocol are you using with it. The yaesu protocol has i believe three flavors 232, 232A, and 232B. If you can update to a version of gpredict like mine and the problem still exists then I would look at the interface device and the protocol its using. I hope this helps and i'm not leading you astray chuck |
