- I have now placed some satellite tracking programs on World:
-
- - stsplus.zip
-
- - stsorbit.zip
-
- - traksat {trak300a.zip & trak300b.zip} (latest version of traksat)
-
-
- They are available via anonymous FTP via
-
- ftp ftp.std.com:/pub/hamradio/pc/satellite
-
-
- If you have any problems, questions, or comments, please e-mail them to me.
-
- I tried very hard to search for stsplus through many archie searches, and
- only found one site which carried it. I hope that by making it available
- on World it will be easier to obtain.
