PSTRotator Satellite Info

Happy New Year!

I have been running PSTRotator to track satellites lately. I have been looking through the documentation for both PSTRotator & Log4OM V2 trying to find out if there is some way to get the tracking information and frequencies from PSTRotator back to Log4OM.

Wishing everyone a better 2021!

Thanks

For what purpose?

Hi Terry, Happy New Year!

Sorry for not replying right away. I suppose the only thing that might be of interest is the frequency. Actually, the mode might be interesting as well.

Cheers!

But your already getting that his CAT control!

I'm not exactly following, Terry. So PSTRotator is controlling the rig: frequency and mode. I can copy that information manually into Log4OM. I was wondering if this information can also be received by Log4OM via UDP from PSTRotator. It's just my curiosity getting the better of me. Heh, I still don't even have a rotator. :lol:

No Log4OM obtains the frequency and mode from the radio via its CAT interface ------------------------------------

When you click the azimuth rotator button in Log4OM it sends the azimuth (Heading) to PSTrotator together with frequency information for aerial tuning to StepIR if required, Its an outbound UDP connection.
