Hi Simon and others,
The satellite scheduling works well and I would like to use it 24/7 even when I am away for a few days.
What I find lacking to achieve this is the ability to change antennas for the different satellites.
I have three antennas, one for the weather satellites, one for 144MHz band and one for 432MHz band. These need to be switched for the particular satellite. I intend to add a couple more antennas in the near future.
Would it be possible to add a feature that assigns an antenna number to each satellite in the scheduler. Then when the satellite outputs that number from the computer, by some means, I can automatically switch the antenna for that satellite.
If the number was binary it would be easy enough to decode and process.
How you get the number out of the computer would depend on how easy you can program the function.
