![]() MacDoppler is used around the world by Amateur Radio operators, satellite spotters, educators and commercial customers from CBS News to the International Space Station Amateur Radio Hardware Management. Assisted me with debugging azimuth transitions such as 359->001. Dog Park Software has announced the release of MacDoppler v2.31, Ham Radio Satellite Tracking Software for your Mac. Generates udp datastream to test various positions. MacDoppler tracking station to existing stations. I added a "bypass" where I close and reopen the telescope Mount TCO session after so many command loops. in Station where they conducted a survey to tie the Polar Regions ' by R. There is a wierd 5 second hang in responses from the Telescope Mount.Updated to close Telescope Mount TCP session after 30 seconds of inactivity.Updated to work and save Altitude (elevation) and Azimuth in degrees with the conversion to telescope arcseconds commands at the time of command.Third thread waits on keyboard input and ends on q/Q or exception such as ctrl-c.Second thread loops checking every 0.4 seconds for any change in object data and if so, formats and sends telescope mount commands.First thread is the udp listener which updates an object when data is received.Improved code based on three threads running simutanionsly. Any pause I would make for the telescope mount would ignore udp data. Single threaded which would action a command to the telescope when udp data was received from MacDoppler which just happens to be every second. I am using the ioptrom mount so telescope commands are formatted for this mount. The UDP stream contains Azimuth and Elevation together with satellite name. MacDoppler or similar software that outputs a "rotator" UDP stream for a satellite position every second.This happens every second effectivly tracking the satellite across the sky.Īntennas are mounted to the iOptron telescope mount for amateur radio satellite communications. ![]() ![]() We listen for this stream and convert to Ioptron goto telescope mount contol commands to slew the mount to point to the satellite. MacDoppler software outputs a udp stream every second with elevation (altitude) and azumuth of passing satellites. Satellite tracking using a goto telescope mount. ![]()
