AMSAT News Service Bulletin 285.02 From AMSAT HQ
SILVER SPRING, MD. October 12, 2003
To All RADIO AMATEURS
BID: $ANS-285.02
Those interested in following the ALAT and ALON of AO-40 from the shack:
Paul, KB5MU, has just posted the latest version of YACER on the AMSAT.org
web site. "YACER", Yet Another Camera Experiment - Revisited, is a suite of
the programs that the Ground Controllers use to determine the current ALAT
and ALON of our spacecraft by using pictures taken with the YACE camera.
While not for the faint of heart, it is truly a fun project, especially at
this time of year when there is plenty of spacecraft re-orientation.
The latest version, V1.05, is the same as prior versions with the exception
of a bug-fix to the program ConvKeps. If you presently have YACER you can
go to the AMSAT site and download ONLY the new ConvKeps V1.5e program.
Present users should probably just take the new program, not the complete
suite, since the suite is an auto executable file that will re-establish the
complete file structure. You will risk overwriting files that you have
created earlier.
The same package and stand alone program, in German documentation, will soon
be available on AMSAT-DL.
[ANS thanks Gunther, W8GSM, for the above information]
